Rob Dial: 我们倾向于认为自己能够清晰地感知世界并做出理性决策,但实际上,我们的感知往往受到过去经历、个人信念、恐惧和欲望的扭曲。这种扭曲源于大脑的预测机制,它基于过去的经验而非当前的现实来预测未来,这可能会导致我们做出错误的决定,例如回避机会或坚持不再适合自己的关系。 为了克服这种局限,我们需要像科学家一样,对自己的想法进行检验,尝试证伪而非证实,避免确认偏差。这意味着要积极寻求与自己观点相左的信息,并挑战自己的假设和信念。 此外,我们的欲望也会扭曲现实。我们可能会因为渴望某种结果而忽略警告信号或低估风险。为了避免这种情况,我们需要从期望中抽离出来,客观地评估情况,并设想如果这件事发生在朋友身上,我们会如何建议他们。 最后,我们的身份认同也会限制我们的思维。我们可能会因为固守身份认同而拒绝改变,即使面对明显的矛盾。为了获得更好的判断力,我们需要在必要时抛弃身份认同,保持思维的灵活性和可变性,勇于承认错误,并不断更新自己的信念和想法。清晰的思考是一种技能,需要不断训练,而不是天赋。只有不断地质疑自己的假设和信念,才能更清晰地看待世界,做出更好的决定。

Deep Dive

Chapters
This chapter explores how our past experiences, fears, and desires create a filtered version of reality, leading to poor decisions. It emphasizes that our perception is not reality and how past traumas and beliefs affect our judgment.
  • Perception is not reality; it's a filtered version shaped by past experiences.
  • The brain is a prediction machine, using past experiences to predict the future, which can lead to self-sabotage.
  • Past pain creates future fears, causing us to avoid opportunities or cling to unhealthy situations.
