Most people’s minds are racing all day and many of these thoughts are recurring in patterns. Some of these patterns lead to irrational behaviour. In science, we mapped 200+ of these cognitive biases. Combining this knowledge with introspective awareness allows you to see these patterns and predict/change your own behaviour way better.
Tip 1: For some practical examples of these thought patterns, watch this 10-minute Youtube video. Which of these do you recognise in yourself?
Tip 2: Learn about the leading theory on decision-making: System 1&2. We wrote an article that will help anyone understand this complex theory.
The above two tips give you a basic understanding. Still want to learn more?
- Podcast: Hear how Daniel Kahneman, the godfather of Behavioural Economics, explains his nobel-prize winning theory on how we make decisions.
- Article: Dunning-Kruger Effect is one example of a bias that’s relevant for anyone to know. And you’ll recognise it every day ;)
- Bonus article: Not on biases but a splendid example of how statistics and visuals can break our mental biases. Will also help you appreciate life.
Have a great day,
