Decisions: The Science of Thinking Clearly
How our brains can trick us, and how to think more clearly.
★ AN OMAHAINDIA ORIGINAL ★
Even very clever people make big mistakes. Siri looks at real stories and finds the trick behind each one — following the crowd, seeing only what we want, wanting a reward too much — and learns how to think more clearly.
WHY DO SMART PEOPLE MAKE MISTAKES?
🤔 A choice → 🧠 a brain trick → 😬 a mistake → 🔍 the clue → ✅ a better choice
