The Ability to Rethink & Reassess Our Minds

In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

As humans, we often like to think we're right, even when we can be wrong at times. Many of us have the unconscious tendency to seek information that support our existing beliefs & disregard or undermine those that do not match ours. But doing so without awareness or questioning can have adverse effects in the way we think, make decisions & live our lives. Today, I'd like to share with you some potential consequences of confirmation bias & what we can do about them.

Confirmation Bias And the Power of Disconfirming Evidence

An articulate piece that describes how confirmation bias works in various contexts and the power of disconfirming evidence.

Investing and the Danger of Confirmation Bias

Sound advice on how we should be aware of the dangers of confirmation bias in finances and how we can approach investing responsibly.
