#006 Thinking, Fast and Slow, Part 2: Mastering Your Mind for Smarter Choices

Building on our understanding of cognitive biases, this series explores the advanced applications and solutions for making better decisions. We examine the finite nature of our mental energy, how biases can derail group decisions, and how to override faulty intuition with statistical thinking. We also uncover the surprising science behind happiness and memory, distinguishing between our "experiencing" and "remembering" selves. This collection culminates in a practical roadmap for applying Kahneman's insights to make smarter, more rational choices in your personal and professional life.
