  • BIAS 11: Simple, Pain-Avoiding Denial7:19

    Identify the pain-avoiding denial tendency, recognize ego-driven denial of truth, and learn to face reality, avoid wishful thinking, and preserve what is real.

  • BIAS 12: Excessive Self-Regard7:58

    Explore how excessive self-regard fuels overconfidence and biases like the endowment effect and dunning-kruger, and learn practical fixes: take responsibility, address unfixed behavior, and discuss thinking differences.

  • BIAS 13: Overoptimism5:06

    Identify how overoptimism and wishful thinking inflate win chances and understate losses. Apply probability mass thinking, question sunk costs, and separate reality from bias to avoid costly misjudgments.

  • BIAS 14: Deprival-Superreaction6:03

    Explore deprival-superreaction: people fear loss more than gain, so focus on absolute terms and threats when evaluating opportunities, persuading others, or making investment decisions.

  • BIAS 15: Social-Proof6:43

    Explore the contrast effect and how relative comparisons distort choices, then apply strategies to think in absolute terms, invert thinking, and present a few comparable options to persuade decisions.

  • BIAS 17: Stress-Influence Tendency5:28

    Stress influence tendency drives quick decisions and faulty thinking like social proof and avoidance. Calm, use checklist, and ask what a reasonable person would do to decide wisely under pressure.

  • BIAS 23: Twaddle Tendency5:10

    Identify the twaddle tendency as overtalking with no substance, avoid using authority to seem more knowledgeable, and stay within your circle of competence while practicing radical open-mindedness.

  • BIAS 25: Lollapalooza Tendency3:10
