My guest: David Epstein is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Range and The Sports Gene. A former investigative reporter at ProPublica and senior writer at Sports Illustrated. His new book is called Inside the Box: How Constraints Make Us Better. Notes Be part of "Mindful Monday" -- Text Hawk to 66866 Key Learnings The easier move is to let it go. David found a factual error in Ryan's new/my new book. David was supposed to read it and write a blurb on it - but went further and challenged a factual error. The kind move, what great leaders actually do, is being willing to point things out, even if it could cause a little friction. There is such a thing as too much autonomy. After Range became mega viral, David optimized for autonomy. He individualized his whole life. He no longer was writing about what others assigned him. A year later, he realized there is a thing as too much autonomy. He missed the structure of a work day, the deadlines, the annoyances of working with other people's schedules. This total freedom ended up feeling terrible. "The great thing about being committed by your own choice is that you can stop wondering how to live and start living." This quote by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi hit David when he was on a dating app for book topics, just swiping and swiping. That day he said, "I'm really interested in constraints. I need some myself. I'm writing a book proposal on this." Two weeks later he was 10 times more interested because he decided to dive into it. Cal Newport says "system shutting down" at the end of his workday. It seems silly, but when you have all that freedom, you need something to close the workday so you can recover and be ready for the next day. Your brain is made for preventing you from having to think whenever possible. Cognitive scientist Daniel Willingham says thinking is energetically costly. So when your calendar is too open, all you'll do is what's convenient. Your brain will be lazy. The path of least resistance. The mere urgency effect: when schedule and structure is too open, people do things that seem urgent even if they're unimportant. When you're too unstructured, you end up doing huge volumes of low value stuff just to have checked off doing something. What David's workday looks like now: Batching work: people at work check their email on average 77 times a day. The way people are usually doing that is they're toggling all the time between email and something else. When you do that, it lowers your productivity and massively increases your stress. David doesn't start his day with his inbox. He'll check it at the end of the workday because emails can take him away from the most important work at the beginning of the day. Stress + Rest = Growth. The workday ends when David's son gets home. When writing, you have to program in rest, just like you would if you were an athlete in training. Daniel Kahneman said writing "Thinking Fast and Slow" was the worst few years of his life. David had lunch with Kahneman and praised the book. Kahneman said, "Never again." He said it was so isolating. He was used to working with a partner or multiple partners and colleagues. He felt so isolated that he said he'd never write a book again, or if he did, he would write it with somebody else. And that's what he did. And David could empathize with that. David made a one-page architectural outline for how "Inside the Box" would look. If it's not on that page, it is not in the book. He wrote as small as possible to try to defeat his own system. The book's 20% shorter than his other two. He thinks it's much tighter writing. He was so much more efficient that he doesn't feel nearly as burned out. After a mega hit book, two things matter: (1) A lot is out of your control, and (2) Identify as a craftsman. David's colleague at Sports Illustrated told him, "If a book about genetics and vampires comes out the same day, you're screwed, and there's nothing you can do about it." He was right. But David very strongly identifies as a writer now, as a craftsman. He's taken fiction writing courses just to learn about craft. With Inside the Box, he did a structural experiment that he found so engaging because he was focused on the craft itself, not just the commercial outcome. "Docendo discimus" - by teaching, we learn. This is a quote from Seneca. If people think they're going to have to teach certain material, they organize it more coherently in their own mind. They start pulling out main ideas and attaching different ideas together. Teaching it is even better, but just making someone think they're going to have to teach it makes them learn in a much more coherent way. Narrative values: the recurring themes that give coherence to a life. David went back and looked at his life and identified: curiosity, open-mindedness, diligence, and resilience. Now that he's started telling his story in that way, it shows up everywhere. But going forward, he also wanted some things in his story that he didn't have. So he identified forgiveness in particular because that has not been a strong suit for him. Ben Helfgott: the only living Olympian to have survived a concentration camp. Almost everybody in his family was killed in the Holocaust. He just preached forgiveness all the time. When David saw what Ben did, these petty grudges he's holding are nothing. You're just poisoning yourself when you hold these grudges. So David decided he wanted forgiveness to become one of his narrative values. Herbert Simon won the highest award in computer science, psychology, and the Nobel Prize in economics. His quote serves as the epigraph of the book: "It is a myth, widely believed but not less mythical for that, that people are most creative when they're most free." Simon coined the term "satisficing." It's a combination of satisfy and suffice. It means having good enough decision rules. He contrasted that with maximizing. From a mountain of psychological research, it is almost always bad to be a maximizer. Maximizers are less happy with their decisions, less happy with their lives, more prone to regret. There's not much evidence they actually make better decisions most of the time. Simon was a proactive satisficer. He said you need three sets of clothing: one on your back, one in the wash, and the next one ready to wear. He simplified all the decisions in his life so he could save cognitive bandwidth for the really important ones. He famously said, "The perfect is the enemy of the good." Choose when to choose. Choose when to save and when to use your cognitive bandwidth. Good enough doesn't mean you have low standards. It means you're saving your bandwidth for the most important things. "How you do anything is how you do everything" is completely wrong. This is one of David's least favorite quotes. It's wrong. Herbert Simon did the same mundane thing, the same breakfast every day, the same socks, so he could crush it in his work. He wasn't doing everything the way he was doing his work. The Fredkins Paradox: We spend the most energy on the least important decisions because we agonize when the options are really similar. General Magic: They invented the smartphone in 1990. The iPhone would not exist without them. They had infinite degrees of freedom. They could do anything. When the device came out, it didn't solve a clear customer problem. It had a 200-page manual. They sold 3,000 units in the first six months. Meanwhile, people inside General Magic who bit off much smaller chunks had success. One low-level engineer started Auction Web. His bosses said no, too small. He left and changed the name to eBay. Another created Graffiti. He said "I'm going to solve a clear customer problem. Busy professionals want contacts and calendars on the go." He did just a calendar, contacts, and a memo pad. That was the Palm Pilot. By doing way less. By doing something, not everything. Tony Fadell (the "podfather"): "If you don't have constraints, make up constraints." Bill Gurley said, "We have a saying in venture: more startups die of indigestion than starvation." When Tony co-founded Nest, he made his team work inside a literal box. He made them prototype the box before they had the product. If it didn't fit in that box, it was not a priority. Reflection Questions What area of your life has too much freedom right now? Where could you add a constraint (a deadline, a ritual, a boundary) that would actually make you more productive or creative? If you had to pick three narrative values that run through your life story, what would they be? Are they the ones you want, or do you need to add an aspirational value like David did with forgiveness? What's one decision you're maximizing (trying to find the perfect choice) when you should be satisficing (good enough and move on)? How much time and energy would you free up if you applied Herbert Simon's approach?

That sickly feeling after a tough leadership call isn't your intuition warning you that you got it wrong and this episode explains exactly why. Drawing on Leon Festinger's 1957 work on cognitive dissonance, a 2021 meta-analysis from Hebrew University, and Kahneman and Tversky's research on loss aversion, Shane reframes one of the most common experiences in school leadership: the quiet panic that shows up on the sofa after a hard decision. If you've ever drafted a softening email at 11pm or lain awake running alternate endings, this one is for you. You'll learn why that post-decision discomfort is a receipt, not a warning, proof that your brain is doing the work of committing, not evidence that you chose wrong. Shane also explains why the loudest complaints after a change are predictably loud (loss aversion means losses feel twice as heavy as gains), and why suppressing the discomfort actually makes you a worse leader in the room. The practical takeaway is a single written exercise you can do this week that won't make the feeling stop, but will change what it means to you.

Political psychologist Rose McDermott discusses her article on how systematic judgment biases can undermine nuclear deterrence and strategic stability, especially under emerging technologies like AI. McDermott explains Kahneman's Type 1 (fast, intuitive) versus Type 2 (slow, analytical) thinking and how four biases—overconfidence, the planning fallacy, the illusion of validity, and the prominence effect—can distort leaders' crisis decisions, probability judgments, and security trade-offs.

Let me start you off with a scene. You're in a debate with someone who has the confidence of a Nobel laureate and the intellectual scaffolding of a soggy cardboard box. They speak quickly, assert boldly, and absorb nothing. You're thinking, “This is going to be easy.” Ten minutes later, you're Googling whether blood pressure medication comes in industrial drums.Welcome to the modern political argument.And if you've ever walked away from one of these encounters feeling like you just tried to teach algebra to a smoke alarm, congratulations. You've met the human embodiment of the Dunning-Krueger Effect. This is the phenomenon where people with limited knowledge dramatically overestimate their competence. In other words, the less they know, the more convinced they are that they know everything.Now layer that with the work of Daniel Kahneman, particularly from his book Thinking, Fast and Slow. Kahneman breaks thinking into two systems. System 1 is fast, emotional, reactive. System 2 is slow, analytical, deliberate.Guess which one dominates political arguments?Exactly.System 1 doesn't care about facts. It cares about survival. It treats disagreement like a personal attack, like you just insulted their grandmother and their Wi-Fi in the same sentence. So when you bring logic into that arena, you're not debating… you're threatening identity.That's your first mistake.Because what you think is a discussion about immigration policy is, for them, a cage match for psychological dominance. Truth isn't currency. Emotional control is.And long before Twitter turned arguments into public blood sport, Arthur Schopenhauer laid this out in his essay on eristic dialectics, essentially the art of winning arguments without regard for truth. His thesis was brutally simple: people don't argue to discover truth. They argue to win.Here's the kicker. When you present airtight logic to someone operating on emotional instinct, you don't win. You validate their battlefield. You've agreed to play chess with someone who flips the board and declares victory because your king “looked nervous.”So what happens next?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

İnsan davranışı gerçekten ne kadar “rasyonel”? Kararlarımızı biz mi veriyoruz, yoksa farkında bile olmadığımız psikolojik mekanizmalar mı yönlendiriyor? Bu bölümde New York Üniversitesi'nin (NYU) iki değerli ismi Prof. Dr. Selçuk Şirin ve Prof. Dr. Tülin Erdem ile Selçuk hocanın kitabından yola çıkarak, insan zihnini ve toplumsal davranışları anlamamıza yardımcı olan 10 çarpıcı düşünce ve psikoloji deneyini konuşuyoruz. Her biri bakış açınızı değiştirebilecek bu deneyler, insan doğasının sandığımızdan çok daha karmaşık olduğunu gösteriyor. Neden bazen açıkça yanlış olan bir fikre çoğunlukla birlikte inanırız? Otorite karşısında ahlaki sınırlarımız ne kadar dayanıklı? Önyargılar, grup kimliği ve rekabet bizi nasıl şekillendirir? Davranış bilimlerinin en çok konuşulan çalışmalarından bazılarına yakından bakıyoruz: Kahneman ve Tversky düşünce deneyleri ile kararlarımızın ne kadar irrasyonel olabildiğini, Robbers Cave Experiment ile grup çatışmasının nasıl üretildiğini, Asch Conformity Experiments ile çoğunluğa uyma eğilimimizi, Stanford Prison Experiment ile rollerin insan davranışını nasıl dönüştürdüğünü tartışıyoruz. Peki bu deneyler bize gerçekten ne söylüyor? İnsan doğası sandığımızdan daha mı kırılgan, yoksa daha mı öngörülebilir? Kendi kararlarımıza, ahlaki reflekslerimize ve sosyal ilişkilerimize farklı gözle bakmanızı sağlayacak bir sohbet sizi bekliyor. Zihninizi biraz sarsmaya hazırsanız, bu bölüm tam size göre.

Tom Griffiths directs both the Computational Cognitive Science Lab and the Princeton Laboratory for Artificial Intelligence at Princeton University. He's been on brain inspired before to talk about his previous book Algorithms to Live By: The Computer Science of Human Decisions, which he co-wrote with Brian Christian. Today he's here to talk about his new book, The Laws of Thought: The Quest for a Mathematical Theory of the Mind. In this book, Tom explains how the three pillars of logic, neural networks, and probability theory complement each other to explain cognition, arguing we are on the doorstep to settling what mathematical principles - the so-called "laws of thought" - underly our cognition. So we discuss a little bit about a lot of things, including the concepts themselves, the people who have generated and worked on those concepts. I should also mentioned, Tom recorded a bunch of his interviews with people he writes about, and he's edited and polished those into a podcast called the Cognition Project, which I have enjoyed after reading the book, and I think you'd enjoy it either before or after you read the book.

Pourquoi les dirigeants de la French Tech ont-ils tendance à recruter leurs clones ? Pourquoi pensons-nous être clairs alors que personne ne nous comprend ?J'ai le plaisir de recevoir Laura Bocobza, sparring partner de dirigeants et véritable experte des mécanismes de la prise de décision. Si vous la suivez sur LinkedIn, vous connaissez déjà sa capacité à décrypter nos angles morts avec humour et pédagogie.J'ai adoré la manière dont Laura passe de la théorie (avec les travaux de Daniel Kahneman ou Olivier Sibony) à la pratique ultra-concrète. Elle nous explique pourquoi nous ne sommes pas aussi rationnels que nous le pensons et, surtout, comment faire de nos biais des alliés plutôt que des ennemis.Dans cet épisode, vous découvrirez :- Le favoritisme intra-groupe : Ce réflexe inconscient qui pousse à s'entourer de gens qui nous ressemblent.- L'illusion de transparence : Pourquoi vos équipes ne comprennent pas vos directives (et la question magique pour y remédier).- Le biais du statu quo : Ce frein invisible qui paralyse l'innovation, notamment dans les PME familiales.- La méthode Amazon : Comment ralentir le cerveau avec des documents écrits, à la manière de Jeff Bezos.- L'effet Zeigarnik : Pourquoi les tâches inachevées hantent vos nuits et comment alléger votre charge mentale.Laura nous invite finalement à une vérité libératrice : il n'y a pas de "bonne" décision dans l'absolu, il y a celle que nous prenons et que nous décidons de rendre bonne.Bonne écoute !Timeline00:00:00 - 00:02:01 : La négociation et les différents rapports au conflit commercial00:02:01 - 00:05:39 : Présentation de Laura Bocobza et son parcours vers les biais cognitifs00:05:39 - 00:08:28 : Les fondements scientifiques : Kahneman, Sibony et les systèmes de pensée00:08:28 - 00:14:46 : Le favoritisme intra-groupe dans la French Tech et ses conséquences00:14:46 - 00:22:11 : Le biais du statu quo dans les PME familiales et la résistance au changement00:22:11 - 00:31:34 : Les grandes familles de biais cognitifs et leurs mécanismes00:31:34 - 00:39:58 : L'illusion de transparence et les erreurs de communication des dirigeants00:39:58 - 00:52:27 : Techniques pratiques pour contrer les biais et améliorer la prise de décision00:52:27 - 00:59:19 : L'effet de halo et les stratégies de rééquilibrage des biais00:59:19 - 01:02:42 : Intelligence multiple, fatigue décisionnelle et ressources pour aller plus loinHébergé par Audiomeans.

Du weißt eigentlich, was richtig wäre. Und trotzdem handelst du im Alltag oft anders, als du es dir vorgenommen hast. Nicht, weil dir Wissen fehlt, sondern weil dein Gehirn nach ganz anderen Regeln spielt, als wir glauben. Vielleicht liegt das Problem also nicht bei deiner Disziplin, deiner Motivation oder deiner Intelligenz. Vielleicht liegt es daran, wie Entscheidungen wirklich entstehen. In dieser Folge schauen wir hinter die Kulissen deines Denkens und warum kluge Menschen sich selbst immer wieder im Weg stehen, obwohl sie es besser wissen.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop sits down with Larry Swanson, a knowledge architect, community builder, and host of the Knowledge Graph Insights podcast. They explore the relationship between knowledge graphs and ontologies, why these technologies matter in the age of AI, and how symbolic AI complements the current wave of large language models. The conversation traces the history of neuro-symbolic AI from its origins at Dartmouth in 1956 through the semantic web vision of Tim Berners-Lee, examining why knowledge architecture remains underappreciated despite being deployed at major enterprises like Netflix, Amazon, and LinkedIn. Swanson explains how RDF (Resource Description Framework) enables both machines and humans to work with structured knowledge in ways that relational databases can't, while Alsop shares his journey from knowledge management director to understanding the practical necessity of ontologies for business operations. They discuss the philosophical roots of the field, the separation between knowledge management practitioners and knowledge engineers, and why startups often overlook these approaches until scale demands them. You can find Larry's podcast at KGI.fm or search for Knowledge Graph Insights on Spotify and YouTube.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to Knowledge Graphs and Ontologies01:09 The Importance of Ontologies in AI04:14 Philosophy's Role in Knowledge Management10:20 Debating the Relevance of RDF15:41 The Distinction Between Knowledge Management and Knowledge Engineering21:07 The Human Element in AI and Knowledge Architecture25:07 Startups vs. Enterprises: The Knowledge Gap29:57 Deterministic vs. Probabilistic AI32:18 The Marketing of AI: A Historical Perspective33:57 The Role of Knowledge Architecture in AI39:00 Understanding RDF and Its Importance44:47 The Intersection of AI and Human Intelligence50:50 Future Visions: AI, Ontologies, and Human BehaviorKey Insights1. Knowledge Graphs Combine Structure and Instances Through Ontological Design. A knowledge graph is built using an ontology that describes a specific domain you want to understand or work with. It includes both an ontological description of the terrain—defining what things exist and how they relate to one another—and instances of those things mapped to real-world data. This combination of abstract structure and concrete examples is what makes knowledge graphs powerful for discovery, question-answering, and enabling agentic AI systems. Not everyone agrees on the precise definition, but this understanding represents the practical approach most knowledge architects use when building these systems.2. Ontology Engineering Has Deep Philosophical Roots That Inform Modern Practice. The field draws heavily from classical philosophy, particularly ontology (the nature of what you know), epistemology (how you know what you know), and logic. These thousands-year-old philosophical frameworks provide the rigorous foundation for modern knowledge representation. Living in Heidelberg surrounded by philosophers, Swanson has discovered how much of knowledge graph work connects upstream to these philosophical roots. This philosophical grounding becomes especially important during times when institutional structures are collapsing, as we need to create new epistemological frameworks for civilization—knowledge management and ontology become critical tools for restructuring how we understand and organize information.3. The Semantic Web Vision Aimed to Transform the Internet Into a Distributed Database. Twenty-five years ago, Tim Berners-Lee, Jim Hendler, and Ora Lassila published a landmark article in Scientific American proposing the semantic web. While Berners-Lee had already connected documents across the web through HTML and HTTP, the semantic web aimed to connect all the data—essentially turning the internet into a giant database. This vision led to the development of RDF (Resource Description Framework), which emerged from DARPA research and provides the technical foundation for building knowledge graphs and ontologies. The origin story involved solving simple but important problems, like disambiguating whether "Cook" referred to a verb, noun, or a person's name at an academic conference.4. Symbolic AI and Neural Networks Represent Complementary Approaches Like Fast and Slow Thinking. Drawing on Kahneman's "thinking fast and slow" framework, LLMs represent the "fast brain"—learning monsters that can process enormous amounts of information and recognize patterns through natural language interfaces. Symbolic AI and knowledge graphs represent the "slow brain"—capturing actual knowledge and facts that can counter hallucinations and provide deterministic, explainable reasoning. This complementarity is driving the re-emergence of neuro-symbolic AI, which combines both approaches. The fundamental distinction is that symbolic AI systems are deterministic and can be fully explained, while LLMs are probabilistic and stochastic, making them unsuitable for applications requiring absolute reliability, such as industrial robotics or pharmaceutical research.5. Knowledge Architecture Remains Underappreciated Despite Powering Major Enterprises. While machine learning engineers currently receive most of the attention and budget, knowledge graphs actually power systems at Netflix (the economic graph), Amazon (the product graph), LinkedIn, Meta, and most major enterprises. The technology has been described as "the most astoundingly successful failure in the history of technology"—the semantic web vision seemed to fail, yet more than half of web pages now contain RDF-formatted semantic markup through schema.org, and every major enterprise uses knowledge graph technology in the background. Knowledge architects remain underappreciated partly because the work is cognitively difficult, requires talking to people (which engineers often avoid), and most advanced practitioners have PhDs in computer science, logic, or philosophy.6. RDF's Simple Subject-Predicate-Object Structure Enables Meaning and Data Linking. Unlike relational databases that store data in tables with rows and columns, RDF uses the simplest linguistic structure: subject-predicate-object (like "Larry knows Stuart"). Each element has a unique URI identifier, which permits precise meaning and enables linked data across systems. This graph structure makes it much easier to connect data after the fact compared to navigating tabular structures in relational databases. On top of RDF sits an entire stack of technologies including schema languages, query languages, ontological languages, and constraints languages—everything needed to turn data into actionable knowledge. The goal is inferring or articulating knowledge from RDF-structured data.7. The Future Requires Decoupled Modular Architectures Combining Multiple AI Approaches. The vision for the future involves separation of concerns through microservices-like architectures where different systems handle what they do best. LLMs excel at discovering possibilities and generating lists, while knowledge graphs excel at articulating human-vetted, deterministic versions of that information that systems can reliably use. Every one of Swanson's 300 podcast interviews over ten years ultimately concludes that regardless of technology, success comes down to human beings, their behavior, and the cultural changes needed to implement systems. The assumption that we can simply eliminate people from processes misses that huma...
Current Obsessions - de leukste podcast over marketing & media
In deze aflevering duiken we in het fenomeen placebo-taal. Wat doet een woord met je brein? Waarom ervaren mensen meer pijn als je zegt dat iets pijn gaat doen? En hoe kan één klein woord het verschil maken tussen actie en twijfel?We laten zien:Waarom het woord “patiënt” passiviteit activeert en “accent” juist regieHoe taal onbewust gedrag stuurt via primingWaarom mensen eerder onderbreken na woorden als “assertief” en langzamer lopen na woorden die met ouderdom te maken hebbenHoe artsen met framing bijwerkingen kunnen versterken of juist verminderenEn hoe jij dit principe toepast op websites, microcopy en knoppenWe bespreken waarom dit vooral werkt in automatische situaties, wat Kahneman hierover zegt, en hoe kleine taalkeuzes op lange termijn grote effecten kunnen hebben.

THE Sales Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Clients don't need to do anything — and that's the brutal truth every salesperson meets early. If a buyer can stick with the same supplier, or do nothing at all, many will. The only thing that moves them is a felt gap between where they are now and where they want to be, plus a reason to bridge it now, not "sometime later". This piece unpacks how to surface that gap without bruising ego, how to test the buyer's DIY confidence with diplomacy, and how to quantify the pain of inaction so urgency becomes logical and emotional — the kind that actually triggers action. Why don't buyers take action even when they agree there's a problem? Buyers can agree there's a gap and still do nothing, because "no change" is often the lowest-risk option. In B2B and complex services, inaction is a decision: keep the incumbent, keep the budget, keep the politics calm. Post-pandemic (2021–2025), many firms tightened discretionary spend, so "we'll revisit next quarter" became a default script — whether you're selling into a Tokyo conglomerate, a US mid-market SaaS firm, or a European manufacturer. Procurement teams are trained to delay; senior leaders are trained to back their own judgement; and everyone is juggling competing priorities. Your job isn't to force urgency — it's to reframe the cost of waiting so the buyer persuades themselves. That's classic Challenger thinking and it pairs neatly with Dale Carnegie-style respect: tough on the issue, gentle with the person. Mini-summary: Agreement isn't action; urgency comes from reframing risk. Do now: Ask, "What happens if nothing changes by the end of this quarter?" What exactly is the "buyer's gap" in sales — and how do you diagnose it fast? The buyer's gap is the distance between the buyer's current reality and their desired future, measured in outcomes, not opinions. Think of it as a before/after delta: revenue leakage, churn, quality defects, compliance exposure, missed hires, stalled strategy. In Salesforce or HubSpot terms, it's the difference between "pipeline health today" and "forecast reliability we need by FY2026". In SPIN Selling language, it's the implication of the problem, expressed in business impact. Diagnosing it quickly means anchoring in concrete targets (KPIs, SLAs, customer NPS, cycle time, cost-to-serve) and a timeframe (this quarter, next six months, before a product launch). Compare contexts: Japanese decision-making often needs broader internal alignment; US teams may move faster but demand ROI proof; both still require clarity on what "better" looks like and what "staying put" costs. Mini-summary: A gap you can't measure becomes a gap you can't sell. Do now: Get the buyer to state one KPI and one deadline they'll be judged on. How do you test a buyer's DIY confidence without insulting them? You don't tell leaders they're wrong — you ask questions that let them discover the limits of "we can do it ourselves". Most executives have strong self-belief. If you attack it, you'll trigger defensiveness and stall the deal. Instead, use diplomatic, diagnostic questions that probe resourcing, capability, and trade-offs: "Who owns this internally?", "What will they stop doing to make time?", "What's the plan if your top performer leaves?", "How will you measure progress in 30 days?" That's subtle pressure, not arrogance. It's also psychologically smart: people trust conclusions they reach themselves (behavioural science 101, think Kahneman). In Japan, where saving face matters, this matters even more; in startups, the risk is overconfidence and bandwidth collapse. Your goal is respectful doubt — enough to show that DIY has hidden costs and timelines. Mini-summary: Self-persuasion beats salesperson persuasion. Do now: Ask, "What would have to be true for DIY to work on time — and what usually gets in the way?" How do you create urgency without sounding manipulative or desperate? Urgency isn't hype — it's a credible timeline tied to consequences the buyer already cares about. Manipulative urgency ("discount ends Friday") works in low-stakes retail; it backfires in enterprise sales. What works is a shared clock: contract renewals, regulatory deadlines, board reviews, hiring cycles, seasonal demand, or tech deprecation. As of 2025, AI and cyber risk conversations have made timelines sharper — but buyers still resist if the consequence is fuzzy. So you build urgency with cause and effect: "If implementation slips past March, your Q2 launch misses the marketing window", or "If churn stays at 12% for another two quarters, CAC payback blows out". Use comparative framing: multinationals have bureaucracy delays; SMEs have cashflow risk; both suffer when waiting compounds losses. Mini-summary: Real urgency is timeline + consequence, not theatre. Do now: Co-create a milestone plan and ask, "What breaks if we miss this date?" How do you quantify the cost of inaction when you don't have all the numbers? You don't need perfect data — you need credible ranges and the right questions to surface the buyer's own numbers. Opportunity cost sounds theoretical until you attach it to money, time, and risk. Start with what you can observe: volume, conversion, defect rate, cycle time, average deal size, staff turnover. Then use ranges: "If delays cost you 1–3 deals a month, what's that in gross margin?" or "If rework is 5–10% of project hours, what's that in payroll dollars?" Gartner and Forrester-style ROI thinking isn't about precision; it's about decision clarity. In heavily engineered sectors (manufacturing, logistics), buyers often have better operational metrics than they realise; in professional services, time-to-value is your lever. The key is to make the buyer feel the leakage with concrete estimates. Mini-summary: Concrete ranges create felt pain; vague talk creates procrastination. Do now: Build a simple "cost of waiting" calculator with the buyer in the meeting. What should sales leaders coach teams to do now to close the buyer's gap? Coach your team to run "gap conversations" that are respectful, evidence-based, and relentlessly action-oriented. This is not about being aggressive; it's about being professionally brave. Train reps to (1) diagnose the gap in one sentence, (2) test DIY assumptions with diplomacy, (3) quantify inaction in ranges, and (4) land a clear next step with a date. Role-play implication questions, not product pitches. Use call reviews to check whether reps anchored to a deadline and KPIs. Bring in frameworks: SPIN for problem/implication, Challenger for reframe, Dale Carnegie for relationship, MEDDICC for qualification discipline. In Japan, coach patience and consensus mapping; in the US, coach ROI and speed; across both, coach "action now" language that still feels respectful: "What would make it reasonable to start in the next 30 days?" Mini-summary: Skills, not slogans, create urgency. Do now: Add one KPI, one deadline, and one implication question to every discovery call script. Conclusion Most prospects won't move just because you're enthusiastic, or because your solution is objectively good. They move when the gap is real, measurable, and emotionally felt — and when they accept that DIY is riskier than it sounds. Your best persuasion isn't a monologue; it's a sequence of smart questions that lead the buyer to persuade themselves. Next steps for leaders Audit discovery calls for KPI + deadline + implication questions Build a lightweight "cost of delay" worksheet your team can use live Run weekly role-plays on diplomatic DIY-testing questions Align sales and delivery on realistic milestone plans (no fantasy timelines) Hold reps accountable to scheduling the next action with a date Author Bio Dr. Greg Story, Ph.D. in Japanese Decision-Making, is President of Dale Carnegie Tokyo Training and Adjunct Professor at Griffith University.

Psychologist Gerd Gigerenzer explains the power of intuition, how intuition became gendered, what he thinks Kahneman and Tversky's research agenda got wrong, and why it's a mistake to place intuition and conscious thinking on opposing ends of the cognition spectrum. Topics he discusses in this wide-ranging conversation with EconTalk's Russ Roberts include what Gigerenzer calls the "bias bias"--the overemphasis on claims of irrationality, why it's better to replace "nudging" with "boosting," and the limitations of AI in its current form as a replacement for human intelligence and intuition.
Denkwandel - Der Contextuelle Philosophie Podcast von Anna Craemer
Dies ist Teil 2 der Serie „Wie erfüllend ist Geld?“.

Why do so many workplaces run on bullshit processes and procedures? And how might Behavioural Science help resolve them?Episode SummaryIn this episode, I sit down with author, speaker and advisor James Healy to explore his book BS at Work — and the everyday nonsense we all recognise inside organisations.James argues that while behavioural science has transformed public policy and consumer behaviour, workplaces have lagged behind. We dig into why leaders keep choosing rituals over results, why nobody seems to ask “does this actually work?”, and how our search for simple answers can make complex systems worse.I ask James to unpack some of his favourite stories, including the strange origins of the DISC personality test — created by Wonder Woman's inventor, complete with “dominance” and “submission” baked in — and the utterly self-parodying experience he had with e-learning about not cheating on e-learning.
In an age of constant information, it's easy to feel lost in the noise. On this episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Steve Riley welcomes back attorney and author Ronald Chapman II to discuss how to navigate our complex digital world and take back your own truth. Drawing on his experiences as a Marine Corps JAG officer and nationally recognized trial lawyer, Ronald offers practical ways to think clearly in an algorithm-shaped media landscape. He shares strategies from Truth and Persuasion: In the Digital Revolution, showing how recognizing cognitive biases and applying systems thinking can strengthen your narrative and leadership. Their conversation moves from the psychology of decision-making to the modern “tribes” formed by our media diets, with touchpoints to Daniel Kahneman, Carl Sagan, and Carl Jung's call to “make the unconscious conscious.” They explore how tailored messaging contributes to fragmentation—and why that matters for lawyers speaking to clients, teams, and juries. Ronald underscores the value of introspection and clear communication, encouraging critical thinking, grounded inputs, and well-researched information. As Ronald and Steve examine the interplay of truth and persuasion, they emphasize authentic dialogue with yourself and others. Ronald's reflections on his career and growth testify to the power of integrity in both personal and professional realms. They close with a call to embrace complexity, think deliberately, and lead with purpose. In this episode, you will hear: An exploration of truth and persuasion in the digital age, informed by Ronald's experience as a Marine Corps JAG officer and trial lawyer How cognitive biases and systems thinking can enhance personal narratives, legal strategy, and leadership The impact of algorithm-driven curation on individual perspectives and broader societal fragmentation Why media “diets” and tailored messaging create modern tribes—and what that means for juries, clients, and families System 1 vs. System 2 thinking (Kahneman) and practical ways to guard against snap judgments The role of authenticity, introspection, and Jung's “make the unconscious conscious” in maintaining integrity Practical steps to reclaim focus, choose better inputs, and communicate more persuasively in a fragmented environment Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

HEADLINE: Challenging Prospect Theory: Increasing Sensitivity to Loss in Human Behavior GUEST NAME: Tim Kane SUMMARY: Professor Tim Kane questions Kahneman and Tversky's Prospect Theory, presenting experiments that suggest humans exhibit increasing sensitivity to loss, rather than diminishing, impacting our understanding of complex rationality beyond financial gambles. Professor Tim Kane challenges Kahneman and Tversky's Prospect Theory, arguing that while losses hurt more than gains, people show increasing sensitivity to successive losses, not diminishing sensitivity. His chocolate experiment demonstrated higher demands to part with each subsequent piece, suggesting a "complex rationality" that differs in non-financial contexts from pure monetary gambles. 1900 SWITZERLAND
CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 9-17-2025 FIRST HOUR 9-915HEADLINE: Global Tensions Escalate: Nuclear Drills, Urban Warfare, and Naval Probes Amidst Shifting Alliances GUEST NAME: Jeff McCausland SUMMARY: Russia conducts tactical nuclear drills with Belarus as drones probe Polish airspace, while Israel engages in difficult urban warfare in Gaza, and the US flexes naval power against Venezuela, all against a backdrop of potential regional miscalculations. Russia's Zapad 2025 includes tactical nuclear training with Belarus, as unidentified drones probe Polish territory. Israel faces six months of challenging urban combat in Gaza, learning from Fallujah. The USconducts naval exercises near Venezuela, potentially aimed at destabilizing Maduro. Regional flashpoints in Syria risk accidental escalation between Turkey and Israel. 1930 POLAND 915-930 CONTINUED HEADLINE: Global Tensions Escalate: Nuclear Drills, Urban Warfare, and Naval Probes Amidst Shifting Alliances GUEST NAME: Jeff McCausland SUMMARY: Russia conducts tactical nuclear drills with Belarus as drones probe Polish airspace, 930-945 HEADLINE: EU Schemes to Fund Ukraine with Frozen Russian Assets, While Oil Prices Fluctuate GUEST NAME: Michael Bernstam SUMMARY: The EU devises a "clever scheme" to fund Ukraine with Russia's frozen assets by converting cash into zero-interest bonds held by Euroclear, effectively confiscating the funds while navigating legal obstacles, as global oil markets remain volatile. The EU and G7 plan to use $170 billion of frozen Russian assets, largely held by Euroclear in Belgium, to fund Ukraine. This "confiscation" involves the European Union issuing zero-interest bonds to Euroclear, allowing cash to be transferred to Ukraine as an unpayable loan. Meanwhile, Brent crude oil prices fluctuate, influenced by sanctions and Trump's calls to stop buying Russian oil. 945-1000 HEADLINE: Challenging Prospect Theory: Increasing Sensitivity to Loss in Human Behavior GUEST NAME: Tim Kane SUMMARY: Professor Tim Kane questions Kahneman and Tversky's Prospect Theory, presenting experiments that suggest humans exhibit increasing sensitivity to loss, rather than diminishing, impacting our understanding of complex rationality beyond financial gambles.

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 HEADLINE: Nepal's "Gen Z Revolution" Against Corruption and Inequality, Amidst Geopolitical Influence GUEST NAME: Kelly Currie SUMMARY: Nepal faces its biggest governance challenge in decades as disillusioned youth, frustrated by corrupt elites and deep inequality, ignite a "Gen Z revolution" marked by widespread protests, while China and India vie for influence in the poor, landlocked nation. Nepal is grappling with widespread "Gen Z" youth-led protests, marked by violence and targeting government institutions, driven by anger over corrupt elites and severe inequality. An interim government is forming to stabilize the country and organize elections. Meanwhile, Nepal, Asia's second poorest nation, is a growing battleground for influence between China and India. 1015-1030 HEADLINE: China's Deflationary Cycle: A Consequence of Overproduction and Centralized Control GUEST NAME: Anne Stevenson-Yang SUMMARY: China is mired in a fearful deflationary cycle driven by chronic overproduction and a government unable to shift from supply-side investment to stimulating consumption, perpetuating a "race to the bottom" under CCP leadership. China faces widespread deflation, causing consumer uncertainty and stemming from government-backed overproduction. The CCP leadership pours money into factories to meet GDP targets, despite overbuilt infrastructure and property. This "involution," or economy eating itself, continues due to a lack of innovative solutions and reluctance to cede economic control. 1030-1045 HEADLINE: China's Covert Strategic Support for Russia Fuels NATO Border Tensions GUEST NAME: Victoria Coates SUMMARY: China is actively supporting Russia's efforts to destabilize NATO's eastern flank, particularly through the Polish-Belarusian border, by pushing migrants and using proxies. This "partnership without limits," declared by Xi and Putin, aims to keep the United States entangled in European conflicts, preventing a focus on East Asia. Poland, however, remains resolute and is strengthening its defenses. China covertly aids Russia in destabilizing NATO via incidents on the Polish-Belarusian border, pushing migrants and using drones. This "partnership without limits" between Xi and Putin aims to keep the US preoccupied in Europe and the Middle East, preventing a focus on East Asia. Despite this, Poland, led by President Karol Nawrocki, remains resolute, strengthening its defenses and economy. 1045-1100 HEADLINE: China's EV Market Faces Global Headwinds and Domestic Overcapacity GUEST NAME: Alan Tonelson SUMMARY: Despite innovation, China's electric vehicle market, led by BYD, is experiencing production drops, price wars, and significant international pushback due to quality, surveillance fears, and predatory trade practices, exposing a broader economic deflation. China's EV market leader BYD saw production drops amidst price wars and over 150 producers. Global markets, including the US, Japan, Germany, and South Korea, resist Chinese EVs due to surveillance concerns and predatory trade practices. Beijing maintains employment through municipal loans, but widespread overcapacity and deflation are significant challenges. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 HEADLINE: Commodity Prices Surge Amidst Global Demand and UK Political Turmoil GUEST NAME: Simon Constable SUMMARY: While the south of France enjoys a pleasant harvest, global commodity prices for essential metals and select food items are spiking due to high demand and supply constraints, mirroring political unrest and leadership challenges within the UK's Labour Party. Simon Constable reports on rising commodity prices: copper, iron ore, and aluminum are up due to high demand for data centers and supply issues. Coffee prices have spiked by 51%, though cocoa and Brent crude have moderated. In the UK, Labour Party leader Keir Starmer faces internal dissent and "plastic patriotism" protests, with talk of replacing him by early next year. 1115-1130 CONTINUED HEADLINE: Commodity Prices Surge Amidst Global Demand and UK Political Turmoil GUEST NAME: Simon Constable SUMMARY: While the south of France enjoys a pleasant harvest, global commodity prices for 1130-1145 HEADLINE: Iraqi Intelligence Uncovers Global Islamic State Network, Highlighting African Hub's Expanding Influence GUEST NAMES: Caleb Weiss and Bill Roggio SUMMARY: The Iraqi National Intelligence Service (INIS) has made its first international bust in West Africa, revealing how Islamic State (ISIS) cells, particularly the wealthy ISWAP, are funding global attacks and supporting ISISoperations, including those in Iraq, amidst shifting jihadist strongholds and Western withdrawal from the Sahel. The Iraqi National Intelligence Service (INIS) revealed its first international operation, dismantling an Islamic State (ISIS) cell in West Africa. This cell, linked to the powerful ISWAP, was financing attacks in Europe and supporting ISIS operations in Iraq. This highlights Africa's growing importance as a hub for the global Islamic State network, amidst a complex regional jihadist landscape. 1145-1200 CONTINUED HEADLINE: Iraqi Intelligence Uncovers Global Islamic State Network, Highlighting African Hub's Expanding Influence FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 HEADLINE: Re-evaluating Liberalism: Cass Sunstein's Defense and Critiques of its Manifest Failings GUEST NAME: Peter Berkowitz SUMMARY: Peter Berkowitz analyzes Cass Sunstein's defense of liberalism "under siege," highlighting criticisms from both the new right and the woke left, and arguing that liberalism's own principles, when taken to extremes, contribute to its current pressures. Peter Berkowitz reviews Cass Sunstein's book On Liberalism: In Defense of Freedom, where Sunstein argues liberalism is "under siege" from criticisms on the right (permissiveness, criminality) and left (too weak on inequality, racism). Berkowitz suggests Sunstein mischaracterizes liberalism by overemphasizing "experiments of living" over equal rights, and neglects how liberalism's vices contribute to its challenges. 1215-1230 CONTINUED HEADLINE: Re-evaluating Liberalism: Cass Sunstein's Defense and Critiques of its Manifest Failings 1230-1245 HEADLINE: Erdogan's Neo-Ottoman Ambitions: Turkey's Escalating Confrontation with Israel and Regional Power Plays GUEST NAME: Sinan Ciddi SUMMARY: Erdogan's Neo-Ottoman ambitions are driving Turkey to increasingly confront Israel through vilifying rhetoric, alleged support for Hamas cells, and a growing military footprint across the Mediterranean and Africa, risking miscalculation and armed conflict in Syria. Erdogan is pursuing Neo-Ottomanism, escalating tensions with Israelthrough vilifying rhetoric and alleged MIT involvement in Hamas plots. Turkey's military expansion, including bases in Somalia and northern Cyprus, and advanced weaponry like drones and hypersonic missiles, positions it to dominate the Mediterranean and challenge Israel. Miscalculation in Syria poses a risk of armed conflict. 1245-100 AM HEADLINE: Erdogan's Neo-Ottoman Ambitions: Turkey's Escalating Confrontation with Israel and Regional Power Plays
Send us a textOne of the biggest mistakes leaders make with new initiatives is selling the benefits without naming what it might cost teachers. Grounded in Kahneman and Tversky's Prospect Theory, this episode explores why the fear of loss often outweighs the promise of gain. Whether it's autonomy, time, competence, or belonging, the risks teachers anticipate can feel heavier than the advantages leaders emphasize.Through research and real-life examples, you'll learn how to shift pushback into progress by addressing those hidden losses head-on. The takeaway is simple: don't just highlight the gains, acknowledge and reduce the losses teachers fear. Resistance isn't about “fear of change.” It's about fear of loss. And until you name the loss, the gain won't matter.
Our guest in this episode is Noel Hurley. Noel is a highly experienced technology strategist with a long career at the cutting edge of computing. He spent two decade-long stints at Arm, the semiconductor company whose processor designs power hundreds of billions of devices worldwide. Today, he's a co-founder of Literal Labs, where he's developing Tsetlin Machines. Named after Michael Tsetlin, a Soviet mathematician, these are a kind of machine learning model that are energy-efficient, flexible, and surprisingly effective at solving complex problems - without the opacity or computational overhead of large neural networks.AI has long had two main camps, or tribes. One camp works with neural networks, including Large Language Models. Neural networks are brilliant at pattern matching, and can be compared to human instinct, or fast thinking, to use Daniel Kahneman´s terminology. Neural nets have been dominant since the first Big Bang in AI in 2012, when Geoff Hinton and others demonstrated the foundations for deep learning.For decades before the 2012 Big Bang, the predominant form of AI was symbolic AI, also known as Good Old Fashioned AI. This can be compared to logical reasoning, or slow learning in Kahneman´s terminology.Tsetlin Machines have characteristics of both neural networks and symbolic AI. They are rule-based learning systems built from simple automata, not from neurons or weights. But their learning mechanism is statistical and adaptive, more like machine learning than traditional symbolic AI.

Do you massively over-estimate how much you can accomplish in any period of time? Do you struggle to work out how long it's going to take you to complete a particular project? Friend, same. Don't worry, though, because there are some well-recognised psychological reasons for that, and plenty of advice too. There's just one problem: when it comes to projects that are linked to your sense of self-worth, time management is even trickier, and the usual strategies might not cut it. Luckily for you, your imperfect buddy is here to throw you a lifeline.Here's a helpful article with some tips about how to get better at planning your time.References:Buehler, R., Griffin, D., and Ross, M. 1994: 'Exploring the "Planning Fallacy": Why People Underestimate Their Task Completion Times', Journal of Personality and Social Psychology 67/3: 366-381.Kahneman, D. and Tversky, A. 1977: 'Intuitive Prediction: Biases and CorrectiveProcedures', Technical Report PTR-1042-7746, Defense Advanced Research ProjectsAgency - Advanced Decision Technology, Decision Research, Eugene, OR.
https://a16z.com/the-techno-optimist-manifesto/ " Techno-optimism is the belief that rapid technological progress is the main driver of human prosperity and should be pursued as a moral imperative. It argues that: Growth = Good: Innovation creates abundance, longer lives, and better living standards. Barriers = Bad: Regulation, caution, and pessimism slow down progress and should be resisted. Technology as Solution: Challenges like poverty, disease, and climate change are best solved by accelerating science and technology rather than restricting them. In short: Techno-optimism sees faster innovation as the surest path to human flourishing — and treats resistance to technological progress as harmful. " Here's a structured overview of the major schools of economic thought, mapped across time, followed by an estimate of which views dominate public and policy thinking today.
In this episode of ABA On Call, Drs. Rick Kubina and Doug Kostewicz delve into the cognitive psychology classic "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman. With wit and depth, they explore System 1 and System 2 thinking, cognitive biases, regression to the mean, and the law of least effort, recasting each concept through a behavioral analytic lens. Rather than dismissing the cognitive approach, Rick and Doug model respectful synthesis, showing how behavior analysts can both challenge and learn from other psychological traditions. This engaging conversation helps bridge the gap between behavior science and mainstream psychology, offering practical insights for clinicians, researchers, and curious practitioners alike.

Daniel Kahneman won the Nobel Prize for proving we're not as rational as we think. In this timeless conversation we discuss how to think clearly in a world full of noise, the invisible forces that cloud our judgement, and why more information doesn't equal better thinking. Kahneman also reveals the mental model he discovered at 22 that still guides elite teams today.

Thinking, Fast and Slow Two systems drive the way we think and make choices, Daniel Kahneman explains: System One is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System Two is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. Examining how both systems function within the mind, Kahneman exposes the extraordinary capabilities as well as the biases of fast thinking and the pervasive influence of intuitive impressions on our thoughts and our choices. Engaging the reader in a lively conversation about how we think, he shows where we can trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking, contrasting the two-system view of the mind with the standard model of the rational economic agent.Kahneman's singularly influential work has transformed cognitive psychology and launched the new fields of behavioral economics and happiness studies. In this path-breaking book, Kahneman shows how the mind works, and offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our business and personal lives--and how we can guard against the mental glitches that often get us into trouble.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

In this episode we explore one big long answer to an email from Bob about why people refuse to spend money in retirement despite having more than adequate resources. We touch on the math and psychology of the Possibility Effect and how to use Base Rates to overcome that, what the numbers say you really should be afraid of, how to break down expenses to alleviate fears and the real underlying problem in many cases, which is not fear, but personal identity rooted in "Frugality Inertia."And THEN we our go through our weekly and monthly portfolio reviews of the eight sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.Books Referenced:"The Top Five Regrets of the Dying" by Bronnie Ware"Falling Upward" by Richard Rohr"Strength to Strength" and "Build The Life You Want" by Arthur Brooks"The Second Mountain" by David Brooks"The Soul of Wealth" by Daniel Crosby"The Art of Spending Money" by Morgan Housel"Die With Zero" by Bill PerkinsAdditional Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page: Donate - Father McKenna CenterMorgan Housel Podcast: The Morgan Housel Podcast, Episode 1: The Art of Spending MoneyNarrative Psychology: How to tell stories that give you meaning | Jane Goodall, Terry Crews & Dan McAdamsChooseFI Pod #508: 508 | 5% SWR, Revealed Preferences, and the 3 Stories | Frank VasquezFour Idols Video: https://tinyurl.com/4vua3eb2 Satisficing: Satisficing - WikipediaBreathless AI-Bot Summary:This episode tackles the psychology behind the "golden coffin" phenomenon – wealthy retirees who maintain sub 3% withdrawal rates, essentially ensuring they'll die with maximum assets. While justified as prudent planning, the real barriers to enjoying retirement wealth are more complex and fascinating.We dive into cognitive science, exploring how the "possibility effect" (identified by Kahneman and Tversky) distorts our risk perception. Your brain amplifies the tiny probability of running out of money while downplaying the vastly higher probability of running out of time. A 55-year-old man has an 11.3% chance of dying within 10 years – yet many obsess over financial scenarios with less than 1% probability of occurring.Beyond cognitive biases lies an identity crisis. Many successful investors have spent decades defining themselves through wealth accumulation. This "frugality inertia" becomes so embedded in self-image that spending feels wrong, even when mathematically sound. The financial services industry exploits these fears, selling products that promise impossible certainties while encouraging hoarding behaviors.The solution? Reframing retirement spending around four evidence-based wellbeing categories: relationships, experiences, work avoidance (paying for freedom from tedious tasks), and giving. These categories reliably generate happiness returns far superior to watching account balances grow. For those struggling to make this psychological transition, books like "Falling Upward" (Rohr), "Strength to Strength" (Brooks), and "The Soul of Wealth" (Crosby) provide frameworks for evolving beyond accumulation as life purpose.What retirement story are you living? The miser who dies rich but unfulfilled, or the transformed Scrooge who discovers generosity's joy? The choice defines not just your retirement, but your legacy.Support the show
I interviewed 60 Brits to debunk one of psychology's greatest myths. Priming is one of the best-known biases in behavioural science. Kahneman mentions it 35 times in his best-selling book Thinking Fast and Slow. And yet, I'm not convinced it really works. In five separate experiments, I tested it.

In this episode we answer emails from Luc, Craig, Luke and Lucky. We discuss updating the website, my recent roundtable on the Stacking Benjamins podcast, Achilles heels, and the inherent problems with not using proper forecasting techniques applied to CAPE ratios and other things, new funds like AVUQ and FFUT, and gold versus bonds in a portfolio.Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page: Donate - Father McKenna CenterStacking Benjamins YouTube Live Stream Roundtable: Decumulational Strategies: The Special Retirement Spend Down Strategy RoundtableListen Notes Link: Risk Parity Radio (podcast) - Frank Vasquez | Listen NotesInterview of Bob Elliot on the Compound Podcast: The Blue Chips of Junk | TCAF 175Morningstar AVUQ: AVUQ – Avantis U.S. Quality ETF – ETF Stock Quote | MorningstarBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:What's the real Achilles heel of risk parity investing? It's not what you might expect. While many point to historical data limitations, the true challenge is psychological—accepting lower returns during bull markets in exchange for better protection when everything crashes. This fundamental trade-off defines the strategy's purpose: enabling you to spend more money now rather than maximizing wealth at death.The forecasting techniques that guide our investment decisions matter tremendously. Drawing from experts like Kahneman, Tetlock, Duke, and Gigerenzer, we explore why base rates (long-term historical averages) consistently outperform crystal ball approaches like CAPE ratios. When investment professionals try predicting market returns based on current valuations, they're often spectacularly wrong—more so than if they'd simply used historical averages. Remember: in forecasting, being less wrong beats being precisely incorrect.The gold versus bonds debate continues to evolve. Bob Elliott, formerly of Bridgewater, suggests that since abandoning the gold standard in the 1970s, gold has performed as well as or better than bonds as a stock diversifier. While 30% gold allocation might seem excessive to some, it could make sense for those concerned about currency risks. Historical context shows both assets have experienced extended periods of outperformance, making a combined approach more resilient than trying to predict which will shine next.We've entered a golden era for do-it-yourself investors, with new ETFs constantly emerging to fill specific niches. Avantis recently launched AVUQ for quality growth exposure, while Fidelity introduced FFUT for managed futures—both reflecting growing demand for sophisticated investment options previously unavailable to retail investors.Don't forget our ongoing campaign supporting the Father McKenna Center for hungry and homeless people in Washington DC.

I NEEDED to record this episode because I keep having these conversations with parents living in Procrastination Purgatory, and I'm like "HELLO, I SEE YOU BECAUSE I WAS YOU!"Remember promising yourself you'd stop yelling "tomorrow"? And tomorrow came and went?So I'm diving into why our brains sabotage our parenting goals. There's actual science behind the "yell now, feel guilty later" cycle. (It's called delay discounting.)

Back in 1923, Claude Hopkins wrote the definitive book on advertising. David Ogilvy said the book “changed his life,” and over eight million copies of the book have been sold.

In 1974, two psychologists, Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky, as the New Yorker once put it, "changed the way we think about the way we think." The prevailing wisdom, before their landmark research went viral (in the way things went viral in the 1970s), was that human beings were, for the most part, rational optimizers always making the kinds of judgments and decisions that best maximized the potential of the outcomes under their control. This was especially true in economics at the time. The story of how they generated a paradigm shift so powerful that it reached far outside economics and psychology to change the way all of us see ourselves is a fascinating tale, one that required the invention of something this episode is all about: The Psychology of Single Questions.They Thought We Were RidiculousOpinion ScienceBehavioral GroovesHow Minds ChangeShow NotesNewsletterPatreon
