“By the time your child turns 18, you've spent 95% of the time you'll ever spend with them in your lifetime.” This comes from research by the American Time Use Survey, highlighted by Our World in Data. And let's be honest, when you first hear that, it stings a little. Especially as a parent. You can't help but wonder, “Have I been a good steward of that precious time?”  But here's the twist: this isn't about guilt. It's about awareness. It's a gentle, data-backed nudge to savor the moments that feel small now—but that become the biggest memories later. So how do we maximize the return on the time—and the money—we spend on experiences? Research tells us something powerful: experiences give us more lasting happiness than stuff. That's not just my opinion, that's from a 2020 study by Kumar, Killingsworth, and Gilovich. Experiences beat material goods both in prospect and in retrospect. In other words, we enjoy them more before and after they happen. Step 1: Listen & Learn Step 2: Create Curiosity Step 3: Build Together Step 4: Build Up—and Look Back What does this have to do with retirement? EVERYTHING! Listen in to understand why. I also answer a question from Wendell, a retiree who's considering swapping out some of his stock-heavy portfolio for the safety of short-term government bonds — a strategy known as “T-Bills and Chill.” He's wondering: with guaranteed income already in place, is it time to say goodbye to the stock market for good?

1 What's best: a brand new phone or a day out with your friends? Is it better to spend money to buy things or to do things? A study of UK consumers showed that six in ten people would rather spend their money on experiences than material possessions. Those aged 18-34 reported spending the highest amount on fun activities.1什么是最好的：全新的电话或与您的朋友一起出去？ 花钱买东西或做事更好吗？ 对英国消费者的一项研究表明，十分之六的人宁愿将钱花在经验上而不是物质财产上。 年龄18-34岁的人报告说，在有趣的活动上花费最高。2 Possessions can last for many years, while experiences are fleeting. This, however, might be the wrong way to look at things. Psychology professor Thomas Gilovich discovered that the happiness that objects provide can fade quickly. We adapt to having new possessions, so that rather than being something we are excited by, they just become our new normal. Soon we may even want to buy a better version of the things we own. Our feelings around possessions can also be affected by others. We tend to compare what we have with other people. If someone else has something better, we can start to feel envious.2财产可以持续多年，而经历正在转瞬即逝。 但是，这可能是看事物的错误方法。 心理学教授托马斯·吉洛维奇（Thomas Gilovich）发现，物体提供的幸福会很快消失。 我们适应拥有新财产，因此，他们只是成为我们的新常态，而不是成为我们感到兴奋的事物。 很快，我们甚至可能想购买我们拥有的物品的更好版本。 我们对财产的感觉也可能受到他人的影响。 我们倾向于将自己的东西与他人进行比较。 如果其他人有更好的事情，我们可以开始感到嫉妒。3 A holiday or a day out may have a short duration, but the happiness it provides can last much longer. Waiting for our latest purchases to be delivered is frustrating, but waiting for an exciting event gives us a feeling of anticipation. Experiences are often shared, so we gain pleasure from social connection and time spent with other people. Memories of our experiences become part of our identity. As Gilovich points out, we are the sum of our experiences. Indeed, the very fact that experiences last for a limited time can give them value. A physical good deteriorates over time, while our memories of an experience can give us pleasure year after year.3假期或一天的休息时间可能持续很短，但是它提供的幸福可以持续更长的时间。 等待我们最新的购买交付令人沮丧，但是等待激动人心的活动使我们有一种期待的感觉。 经验经常分享，因此我们从与他人度过的社交联系和时间中获得了乐趣。 对我们经历的记忆成为我们身份的一部分。 正如吉洛维奇（Gilovich）指出的那样，我们是我们的经验总和。 确实，经验持续有限的时间可以使他们有价值。 随着时间的流逝，身体的好处会恶化，而我们对体验的记忆可以使我们年复一年。4 Of course, it's not always that simple. Other studies have suggested that happiness gained from experiences might depend on your personality type, and how many possessions you already have. People with more introverted personality types may get less benefit from social occasions and those with few possessions may get greater benefit from objects. However, for many of us, it could be that when choosing how to spend our disposable income, we'll get far more benefit by spending on something to do, rather than something to have.4当然，这并不总是那么简单。 其他研究表明，从经验中获得的幸福可能取决于您的性格类型以及您已经拥有多少财产。 具有内向的人格类型的人在社会场合中可能会获得较少的好处，而那些拥有财产很少的人可能会从物体中获得更大的好处。 但是，对于我们许多人来说，可能是在选择如何花费我们的可支配收入时，我们会通过花费一些东西而不是要拥有的东西来获得更多的好处。

In a riveting conversation with Thomas Gilovich, a giant in the field of psychology, we delve deep into the intricacies of human perception, biases, and the role of luck in shaping our experiences. As the Irene Blecker Rosenfeld Professor of Psychology at Cornell University, Gilovich has pioneered research across social psychology, decision-making, and behavioral economics, offering invaluable insights into the workings of the human mind.Our discussion with Thomas Gilovich offers a compelling exploration of the human mind's complexities, from the construction of reality to the impacts of biases and the essence of gratitude. Gilovich's insights encourage us to critically examine our perceptions and biases, appreciate the role of luck in our lives, and seek fulfillment beyond materialistic pursuits. By cultivating gratitude and understanding, we can navigate the intricacies of human cognition and interactions, leading to richer, more meaningful lives.(00:00) Introduction(01:27) Insights from Thomas Gilevich: The Psychology of Perception(02:44) The Illusion of the Hot Hand and Pattern Recognition(05:53) Understanding Our Biases and the Power of Science(30:36) The Fascinating World of Experiences vs. Material Goods(38:07) The Profound Impact of Gratitude on Our Lives(50:28) The Power of Gratitude and Reciprocity(52:34) Exploring the Impact of Gratitude on Personal Growth(53:11) The Role of Resentment in Personal Development(53:19) Understanding Academic Dynamics Through Gratitude(54:14) Perceptions of Fairness and Bias in Academia(55:59) The Influence of Gratitude on Life Experiences(57:16) Navigating Life's Unfairness with Gratitude(59:21) The Psychology of Bias and Perception(01:09:47) Framing and Its Impact on Decision Making(01:30:35) The Hedonic Treadmill and Pursuit of Happiness(01:36:50) Concluding Thoughts on Gratitude and Social PsychologyThomas Gilovich's Website: https://www.thomasgilovich.com/Socials:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKPNCI1-HBSZmiHNAlAjiIwWebsite: https://www.performanceinitiativepodcast.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/performanceinitiativeTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@performanceinitiative

Wenn wir einen peinlichen Fehler machen, ein Missgeschick oder ein öffentliches Versagen erleiden, haben wir oft das Gefühl, dass unser Image in den Augen anderer stark beschädigt ist. Vier Studien zeigen, dass diese Ängste häufig übertrieben sind. Immer erwarteten Menschen in solchen Situationen, von anderen härter beurteilt zu werden, als sie es tatsächlich wurden. Ein Grund ist, dass wir uns übermäßig auf unser Missgeschick konzentrieren, und es versäumen, einen breiteren Blickwinkel einzunehmen.   Studien: Enthält 4 Studien: Savitsky, K., Epley, N., & Gilovich, T.

This week we are joined by two experts on people's perceptions of the world and their influence on our actions. Laura has been an admirer, and drawn on the work of, Dr. Gilovich and Dr. Davidai for years, and during their conversation today, they generously indulge Laura as she asks them to apply their research and own personal practices to Laura's own work in trauma, vicarious trauma, overwhelm, and systematic oppression/structural supremacy. They cover everything from enduring regret to the headwinds/tailwinds asymmetry. With humor and candor, they relay their pioneering research in very accessible ways and leave the listener with a tremendous amount to think about and a number of concrete take-aways.To learn more about Future Tripping, Laura's work, and The Trauma Stewardship Institute, or to email a question you'd like Laura and her guests to respond to, please click here, or call 360-228-5804 anytime and leave us a voicemail.  And you can find us on Instagram here. 

Join Jeff Zweerink and Fazale “Fuz” Rana as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, as well as new discoveries that point to the reality of God's existence. Cognitive Bias Studies  Research demonstrates that people remember the challenges they face more than the benefits they enjoy. This “headwinds/tailwinds asymmetry” helps explain why both political parties see the electoral college as favoring the other party, why most people see their favorite team as having the most difficult schedule, and why children routinely characterize parents as favoring other siblings. Unfortunately, this asymmetry contributes to a darker side of human behavior in that people who perceive greater challenges and obstacles are more inclined to endorse morally questionable behavior. The Bible helps prevent this asymmetry and provides a prescription to encourage moral behavior.  Fine-Tuned DNA Structure  Every detail about the structure of DNA is precisely as it must be for life to be possible, reflecting a type of molecular fine-tuning. This fine-tuning comes into focus when biochemists ask “why” questions, such as: Why is DNA made up of the four nucleobases, (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine) and not some other set of nucleobases? A chemist from Trinity University Dublin provided insight into this question by demonstrating that the set of nucleobases in DNA uniquely minimizes the harmful impact of a phenomenon called tautomerism, revealing a rationale for the composition of this important biomolecule. This insight raises additional questions: How should we account for the ingenuity and fine-tuning of DNA's structure? Is it the outworking of a historically contingent evolutionary process, or do these features point to a Creator's handiwork? Jeff and Fuz discuss these important topics in this episode of Stars, Cells, and God.

Die Schere zwischen arm und reich wird auf unserer Welt immer größer. Aber wie legitmieren wir eigentlich diese ökonomische Ungerechtigkeit und wann neigen wir dazu zu meckern? Um darauf eine Antwort zu finden beschäftigen sich Kai und Luise in dieser Folge mit einem Paper aus insgesamt vier kleinen Studien zum Sternschnuppen-Effekt. Dieser besagt nämlich, dass Menschen dazu neigen Reichtum einzelner Individuen als fairer zu beurteilen, als den Reichtum einer Gruppe an Menschen. Wie man das mit psychologischen Forschungsmitteln herausfindet und was das mit dem Forbes-Magazin zu tun hat, erfahrt ihr in dieser Folge.

Travel and vacationing is incredibly amazing for your brain and your emotional and mental well-being. And according to Forbes 63% of Americans say they go six months or longer without a vacation, with more than a quarter (28%) of respondents going a year or more between trips. So, if you're one of these people who rarely take time off to vacation and can't see how you could afford one, reframe your life to be one big ass vacation, instead. And maybe plan a real vacation for yourself to look forward to, too. It doesn't have to be expensive. It can be a staycation, if you want. A 2014 study by Gilovich and colleagues found that people were happier when they were anticipating an experience more than a material purchase. So, save your money on stuff you don't need but feel you may want, and spend it on experiences instead.  Get bonus content on PatreonSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/make-your-damn-bed.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Eliezer's Sequences and Mainstream Academia, published by lukeprog on the LessWrong. Due in part to Eliezer's writing style (e.g. not many citations), and in part to Eliezer's scholarship preferences (e.g. his preference to figure out much of philosophy on his own), Eliezer's Sequences don't accurately reflect the close agreement between the content of The Sequences and work previously done in mainstream academia. I predict several effects from this: Some readers will mistakenly think that common Less Wrong views are more parochial than they really are. Some readers will mistakenly think Eliezer's Sequences are more original than they really are. If readers want to know more about the topic of a given article, it will be more difficult for them to find the related works in academia than if those works had been cited in Eliezer's article. I'd like to counteract these effects by connecting the Sequences to the professional literature. (Note: I sort of doubt it would have been a good idea for Eliezer to spend his time tracking down more references and so on, but I realized a few weeks ago that it wouldn't take me much effort to list some of those references.) I don't mean to minimize the awesomeness of the Sequences. There is much original content in them (edit: probably most of their content is original), they are engagingly written, and they often have a more transformative effect on readers than the corresponding academic literature. I'll break my list of references into sections based on how likely I think it is that a reader will have missed the agreement between Eliezer's articles and mainstream academic work. (This is only a preliminary list of connections.) Obviously connected to mainstream academic work Eliezer's posts on evolution mostly cover material you can find in any good evolutionary biology textbook, e.g. Freeman & Herron (2007). Likewise, much of the Quantum Physics sequence can be found in quantum physics textbooks, e.g. Sakurai & Napolitano (2010). An Intuitive Explanation of Bayes' Theorem, How Much Evidence Does it Take, Probability is in the Mind, Absence of Evidence Is Evidence of Absence, Conservation of Expected Evidence, Trust in Bayes: see any textbook on Bayesian probability theory, e.g. Jaynes (2003) or Friedman & Koller (2009). What's a Bias, again?, Hindsight Bias, Correspondence Bias; Positive Bias: Look into the Dark, Doublethink: Choosing to be Biased, Rationalization, Motivated Stopping and Motivated Continuation, We Change Our Minds Less Often Than We Think, Knowing About Biases Can Hurt People, Asch's Conformity Experiment, The Affect Heuristic, The Halo Effect, Anchoring and Adjustment, Priming and Contamination, Do We Believe Everything We're Told, Scope Insensitivity: see standard works in the heuristics & biases tradition, e.g. Kahneman et al. (1982), Gilovich et al. 2002, Kahneman 2011. According to Eliezer, The Simple Truth is Tarskian and Making Beliefs Pay Rent is Peircian. The notion of Belief in Belief comes from Dennett (2007). Fake Causality and Timeless Causality report on work summarized in Pearl (2000). Fake Selfishness argues that humans aren't purely selfish, a point argued more forcefully in Batson (2011). Less obviously connected to mainstream academic work Eliezer's metaethics sequences includes dozens of lemmas previously discussed by philosophers (see Miller 2003 for an overview), and the resulting metaethical theory shares much in common with the metaethical theories of Jackson (1998) and Railton (2003), and must face some of the same critiques as those theories do (e.g. Sobel 1994). Eliezer's free will mini-sequence includes coverage of topics not usually mentioned when philosophers discuss free will (e.g. Judea Pearl's work on causality), but the conclusion is standard compatibilism.

Episode SummaryIn this episode, Ilana and Mordechai discuss intuitive eating and how understanding your emotions can help manage your cravings and help avoid negative self-feelings. They delve into their own emotions and go on a journey of understanding what shapes their reactions. HighlightsIlana believes that mindfulness is critical to understanding the difference between a craving and a need.Sometimes submitting to a craving is not about the food. It's about the act of numbing an emotion.If you dig deep enough into why an emotion exists, you will sometimes find that it is because of something that will never happen or that it is just a story that you are telling yourself.If you allow yourself to feel, then you can learn to process the feelings and understand how to manage your emotions better.Most people are not eating things that look like products from the earth.There can be some negative social interactions when you are making healthy choices and others see it as different or lacking fun. Trying to eat healthily can make it difficult to socialize since food is such a cultural staple.There are other ways to connect with people than food.Constant consumption of perfection on social media and commercials is a reminder that we are not good enough.Meditation can be helpful. You can find the time. Nothing says that you have to meditate for a specific time.Breakaway from screens and go out into the world and move and find a way to experience the earth.Going after a goal with too much rigor can cause you to fail. Find ways to make it fun and start simple.Start with self-love and acceptance. Then take the next step.Relevant Linkshttps://www.ilanagilovich.com/The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cakehttps://www.amazon.com/Particular-Sadness-Lemon-Cake/dp/0385720963Daring greatly Brene Brownhttps://www.amazon.com/Daring-Greatly-Courage-Vulnerable-Transforms/dp/1592408419All past episodes of the podcast: https://www.feelingfull.com/

A talent that you have, but will it last, unlikely! We all want that superior money earning performance to continue, and we enjoy the success of an individual over a team (Jessie Walker and Tom Gilovitch reported on it in 2020, links below). Because we like narratives and we want to be the hero of our story, just like Kolby Bryant or LeBron James were for the Lakers.

On this week's episode, host Jon Wertheim talks with two guests. First, Thomas Gilovich, the chair of psychology at Cornell University and a leading behavioral economist, discusses the theory on why we don't mind when tennis players win lots of titles but we don't feel the same way with teams. Gilovich also explains some of his other work and theories related to sports. Next, Wertheim speaks with former UMass tennis player Brittany Collens to explain why the NCAA is stripping the UMass women's tennis team of three years of victories over the improper reimbursement of $252 for a dorm room phone line.

"Um dos inimigos da felicidade é a adaptação”, diz Dr. Thomas Gilovich, um professor de psicologia na Universidade de Cornell que estuda a questão do dinheiro e felicidade por mais de duas décadas. Então ao invés de comprar o mais recente iPhone ou um monte de roupas novas, Gilovich sugere que você terá mais felicidade se gastar seu dinheiro em experiências como ir a exposições de arte, fazendo atividades ao ar livre, aprender uma nova habilidade, ou viajando.

Experiences are something we remember for a long time. Much longer than we remember things. How to design for them? With Anna Pohlmeyer, the assistant professor at the Institute for Positive Design at Delft University of Technology, we talk about the challenges behind hedonistic adaptation, designing for values and virtues.

Summary Being grateful has a host of benefits for individuals and teams. In this episode we explore three practical ways to build gratitude at work. Transcript Hello and welcome to episode 63 of the Leadership Today podcast where each week we tackle one of today’s biggest leadership challenges. This week we explore the power of gratitude for ourselves and for those we lead. As human beings we have a natural tendency to become caught up with the negatives and challenges in life. Researchers Gilovich and Davidai describe this as the headwinds/tailwinds asymmetry - what they characterise as a tendency to focus far more on barriers than on blessings. This can lead to a sense of unfairness - a perception that we have it harder than most other people. It also leads us to underestimate the benefits we have received that have contributed to positive outcomes in our lives. This tendency runs counter to a sense of gratitude. It’s very difficult to feel grateful at the same time as feeling like you’ve had it tougher than most people. But that’s exactly why gratitude can be so helpful - we can use gratitude to rebalance the asymmetry. But first, what is gratitude? It’s a commonly used word, but can be hard to define. Researchers categorise gratitude as a both a trait and an emotion or state. We all experience the emotion of gratitude at different points during our day, but fewer of us have an ongoing grateful outlook on life as a trait. There is even an ongoing debate as to whether gratitude should be considered a personality trait. What we do know is that gratitude has both a genetic and environmental component - it appears to be wired into us and emerges quite early in our lives. And research also demonstrates that we can increase our gratitude, both in our daily mood, and also ongoing. For the individual the benefits of gratitude range from improved physical and mental health, elevated mood and happiness, increased life satisfaction, and reduced burnout. By way of example, patients recovering from heart failure who completed a gratitude journal had reduced signs of inflammation after an 8 week period. Other research showed people reported better and longer sleep, and better overall physical health by increasing their practice of gratitude. For groups and organisations, research has demonstrated that gratitude can increase generosity and kindness, while helping to build stronger relationships and improving work climate. Gratitude is like the glue for society that binds people together. If someone does something nice for you, you’re likely to feel grateful and, in turn, do something nice back. Here are three ways to increase gratitude at work: 1. Gratitude journal. A common version of this involves writing down three new things each day for which you’re grateful. One experiment showed those asked to journal 5 things to be grateful for on a weekly basis for 10 weeks exercised significantly more and had fewer physical complaints than another group assigned to journal 5 hassles per week over the same time frame. Interestingly, similar studies over 2 week periods didn’t demonstrate significant differences between the two groups. So the research suggests journalling needs to be sustained. You could build this practice of gratitude into individual and team meetings by taking some time for people to share what they are grateful for. 2. Gratitude letters. This typically involves writing letters of appreciation to people you haven’t properly thanked. At work though it could be as simple as expressing gratitude to your people, and encouraging others to do the same. 3. Demonstrating genuine kindness. Why not commit to undertaking one additional kind act per day. It might be helping someone with their work, or grabbing an extra coffee for a colleague back at the office, or even being the person that empties the dishwasher. Importantly, each of these three ideas need to be genuine. One study found writing a gratitude journal once a week was more effective than three times a week - the theory being that people put more effort into it and it was more genuine when done just once a week. Similarly other research showed the positive impacts are much greater for genuine kindness than what the researchers called “strategic kindness” (or doing something nice in order to gain a personal benefit). Hopefully that’s prompted you to boost your gratitude, particularly at this busy time of the year. I have provided a link to a comprehensive review of the research on gratitude from Summer Allen at the University of California Berkeley, where the bulk of the research cited in this podcast was drawn. There’s also a link to Davidai and Gilovich’s research on headwinds and tailwinds, and a further article about the science of kindness. And given today’s topic, I want to express my gratitude to those who have so wonderfully supported the podcast over the last year. Thanks for helping to get the word out and for sending through encouraging messages about how the content has helped in developing your leadership.

In this episode we dive into the psychology behind why people are happier when they invest in experiences over material possessions. Being one of 4 principles to live by to advance personal happiness, we focus on things people can simply DECIDE to do today, to make themselves happier.

Episode Notes This episode I chat to John Richmond, another doctor. We talk about running for newbies, going right back to the basics on how to get started and how we got going after enduring the traditional British school experience of humiliation by cross-country running. We talk about the need to run slow at the start. In fact, you may even need to walk. And, that's cool. It's an important part of the process for many people getting into running. The fear of people looking at you can be a concern, but take heart from the evidence - most people simply are not paying any attention. See the link below for the Gilovich paper. We also mention the mere-measurement effect - the importance of saying what you are going to do and how surrounding yourself with runners could be an important step as well.

Finalement, l'argent fait bien le bonheur L’argent peut bel et bien[1] faire votre bonheur, à condition que[2] vous en fassiez un bon usage[3]. Entre l’achat d’un objet matériel et la participation à une nouvelle expérience : quelle option choisiriez‐vous ? Une certaine logique pourrait vous pousser[4] à dépenser votre argent sur des objets plutôt[5] que sur des expériences, car l’objet durera plus dans le temps et, de ce fait[6], il apportera du bonheur plus longtemps qu’une expérience. Cependant[7], de nouvelles recherches démontrent que dépenser de l’argent sur des expériences plutôt que sur des objets nous rendrait heureux à plus long terme[8]. Le Dr. Thomas Gilovich, professeur en psychologie à l’Université de Cornell, a mesuré[9] le niveau de bonheur d’un groupe de personnes suite à d’importants achats matériels et expérientiels[10]. Au début, chacun des achats rendait les participants également heureux. En revanche, au bout de quelque temps, le niveau de bonheur ressenti grâce à l’achat des objets a diminué alors que le niveau de satisfaction lié aux achats d’expériences a augmenté. L’adaptation[11] : l’un des ennemis[12] du bonheur « Nous achetons des choses pour nous rendre heureux, et nous réussissons. Mais seulement pour un certain temps. Les nouvelles choses nous excitent[13] au départ[14], mais ensuite nous nous adaptons à elles » affirme le Dr. Gilovich. Au fil du temps[15], nous devenons si habitués au matériel qui nous entoure[16] qu’il cesse[17] d’être spécial et ainsi d’être une source[18] de bonheur. Nous sommes le résultat de nos expériences Dans un article publié dans le Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, un chercheur de l'Université du Colorado aux États‐Unis décrit les facteurs[19] qui pourraient expliquer pourquoi les expériences apportent plus de joie[20] que les biens matériels : Elles se prêtent[21] davantage à des réinterprétations positives : car nos expériences sont perçues[22] comment les agents[23] bâtisseurs[24] de ce que nous sommes aujourd’hui. Les expériences favorisent[25] davantage[26] les relations sociales lesquelles sont profondément reliées[27] au bonheur : car on a tendance à vivre les expériences avec d'autres, et souvent[28] il est plus intéressant de parler d’expériences vécues que d’objets matériels. Alors en ce qui concerne[29] l’achat du bonheur, nous vous conseillons de privilégier[30] l’accumulation[31] de souvenirs mémorables[32] sur vos photos et dans votre esprit[33], plutôt que d’accumuler des objets dans votre maison.

Bloomberg View columnist Barry Ritholtz interviews Thomas Gilovich, the Irene Blecker Rosenfeld Professor of Psychology at Cornell University. He has conducted research in social psychology, decision making and behavioral economics, and is best known for his research in heuristics and biases in the field of social psychology. He is the author of several books, including "How We Know What Isn't So: The Fallibility of Human Reason in Everyday Life," and is the co-author (with Amos Tversky) on the seminal study on the myth of the “Hot Hand” in the NBA. His most recent research explored experiential and material consumption and what makes people happy. 

A study about satisfaction carried out by a professor of psychology gives us something to think about in the workplace. Tom Gilovich, a professor of psychology at Cornell University, did a study along with some members of his team to find out how levels of satisfaction are affected by spending money on experiences versus spending money on physical things. Gilovich and his team found that people who spend money on physical things such as phones, computers, houses or cars tend to have a drop in satisfaction as time goes on. On the other hand, they found that people who spend money on experiences, like skydiving, traveling or learning a new skill, have higher satisfaction levels overtime. How can we translate this phenomenon into the workplace? A lot of times the relationship we have with our organizations tends to stay very transactional. When we first get the job our satisfaction levels are high, we are excited, expectant and happy. However, as time goes on we tend to become more and more dissatisfied with our jobs. We get bored, disconnected and burned out. Organizations need to find a way to allow employees to feel as if they have purchased an experience--as if they have climbed a mountain or gone skydiving. They need to find a way to help employees get that feeling of increased satisfaction as time goes on. If organizations could do this successfully, think of what that would do to the way we work, the way we feel and the way we live. What do you think? How do you think organizations could fix the way we view work?

Tom Gilovich is a professor of Psychology at Cornell University with an interest in judgement and decision making. He is also the author of the book, The Wisest One in the Room: How You Can Benefit from Social Psychology’s Most Powerful Insights. He has studied many different facets of social psychology including sports decisions, political judgement and decision making, and relationship decision making.   What is the difference between wisdom and intelligence? A lot of aspects go into defining wisdom, but in short intelligence is more about being book smart and wisdom is more about being people smart. To have wisdom you have to be knowledgeable about people; why they do what they do and think what they think.     How can this be translated to the workplace? Gilovich discusses what managers normally do when employees are not performing as well as they should be. Most managers try to change the employee’s behaviors by pushing them in the direction the manager wants them to go. They push them with incentives, punishments, or motivation. But Gilovich says most of the time the poor performance isn’t due to a lack of motivation, it’s because the employee has a hard time “translating their good intentions into effective actions”. So instead of pushing, it is important for leaders in the workplace to understand their employees and to find ways to help their employees put their intentions into action.   Another subject that deals with understanding how people think and act is discussed in an article where Gilovich talks about the difference between experiences and material things and how they impact our happiness. He found three things to be true. Experiences connect us to other people more than material goods do, we are less comparative with experiences than with material things, and experiences contribute more to our identity than material things. In the end he found that people get more enduring happiness from experiences than material things.   Could this principle be used in organizations to make employees more happy and content with their jobs? We spend a majority of our time working, and yet it seems that most people become more and more dissatisfied with their jobs as time goes on. Perhaps if we could find a way to make work more of an experience people would enjoy their jobs and their satisfaction would grow over time. But who is responsible for this change, the employee or the employer? Perhaps a little bit of both. It is important for both parties to be a part of this change. Employers should focus on creating a better employee experience, however up to this point the responsibility has been put on the employer alone. It is also up to the employees to change their outlook.   Gilovich gave an example of two janitors working at Nasa, when asked what they do for a living one janitor said “I clean the floors and empty the trash” the other janitor said “I help put people on the moon”. Both janitors were correct, except one looked at the simplistic version of the job whereas the other one looked at the bigger picture. One of these two janitors is going to have a greater sense of purpose and a better employee experience based on their outlook.   Another thing we have to understand is that there are times when we misevaluate things in our lives. Gilovich gives the example of riding a bike. When you are biking and you face the wind you cannot deny it is there; it is in your face and you feel it. However, when you turn around and have it at your back you are grateful for a minute but then you don’t even notice it after awhile. This demonstrates how the things we have to overcome are the things we pay attention to, because we have to. Those hard times in life or the barriers that stand in the way of our happiness, we have to focus and work hard to overcome them. But the things in life that give us “a boost”-- a pay raise or a new car, the good times--those are the things that are easy to forget.   Because we easily forget the good, easy times we have the tendency to look at others (possibly co-workers) and feel that the other people have better lives. We have a tendency to claim life is “unfair” when we see others get raises, promotions, or good things in life.   How can we be the wisest one in the room and put it into practice in the workplace? We spend about 30% of our lives in the workplace, so happiness and fulfillment at work are important. In order to improve the employee experience it is important for both employers and employees to focus on cultivating experience. How can employees have a sense of purpose at work, how can employees and employers connect and form relationships, and how can employees attain more freedom while still performing their job? All of these things play into the big picture of employee experience and how to be the wisest one in the room.       What you will learn in this episode:  The difference between wisdom and intelligence  Why we misevaluate certain things   Strategies and techniques to use to be the wisest person in the room  How experiences have a different effect on us than purchasing material things  How motivation impacts workplace  Who is responsible for creating a sense of purpose; the employee or the employer  Biases we are subjected to  What is naive realism and how can we avoid it?  Link From The Episode: The Wisest One In The Room on Amazon   (Music by Ronald Jenkees)

We hit the jackpot with this one! Economist Robert Frank (you may remember him from such episodes as The Greatest Books Ever Written) joins David and Tamler to talk about his new book Success and Luck: Good Fortune and the Myth of Meritocracy. What role does pure chance play in making or breaking our careers and lives? Are effort and talent enough to succeed, or does the ball need to bounce our way? Where do we get our will-power and talent--is that ultimately a matter of luck as well? And what happens when we reflect on the lucky breaks we've received in our lives? Does it make us happier and more generous? Or do we feel like our accomplishments have been taken away? Plus a brief discussion of the Frank's revelatory 1988 book Passions Within Reason, and of some recent studies about how we convey our commitment to cooperate.     LinksRobert Frank [johnson.cornell.edu]Robert Frank interviewed on Fox News by Stuart Varney [video.foxbusiness.com]Ronald Coase [wikipedia.org]Everett, J.A.C., Pizarro, D.

Dave and Tamler try their best to do a show without guests--we talk about moral persuasion, motivated reasoning, and whether it's legitimate to use emotionally charged rhetoric in a philosophical argument. Plus, we describe how students proceed through the "Stages-of-Singer," and Tamler finally defends himself against Dave's slanderous accusation of hypocrisy about animal welfare. LinksThomson, J. J.
