Why You Keep Making Bad Decisions | Thinking Fast And Slow | Deep Dive | Part 2
🤔🧠Ever wondered why you make certain decisions?
This episode dives into the fascinating world of cognitive biases, exploring how our minds often take shortcuts that can lead to errors in judgment.
We'll be covering key concepts from Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking, Fast and Slow", including:
* Substitution: Learn how your brain sometimes answers an easier question instead of the one you were asked, often without you realizing it!
* The Affect Heuristic: Discover how your emotions can influence your judgments and decisions, sometimes leading you astray.
* The Law of Small Numbers: Why we tend to draw strong conclusions from small samples and see patterns where there are none.
* Anchoring: How the first piece of information you receive can heavily influence your decisions, even when it's irrelevant.
* Availability Heuristic: Why we often overestimate the likelihood of events that are easily recalled, often due to media coverage.
* How Emotions Impact Availability: The strong link between our feelings and what we recall, and how this can skew our perception of risk.
* Why Causes Trump Statistics: How we prefer causal explanations over statistical data, and why this can lead to errors.
* Regression to the Mean: Understanding why extreme outcomes are often followed by less extreme ones, and why it's not always due to a causal relationship.
💡 You'll also get actionable insights on how to recognize and mitigate these biases in your own life. Don't let your System 1 thinking lead you astray! Engage your System 2 and become a more rational decision-maker!
