🧠 *Cognitive Biases* 🧠 💁🏻‍♀️ *Master Them Before They Master You!* 🫵🏻 🔰 *Confirmation Bias:* 💁🏻‍♀️ We seek information that confirms existing beliefs, and ignore contrary evidence. ❇️ *Example:* Only following news sources you agree with. ✅ *Fix:* Actively seek opposing viewpoints; before decisions, assign a "devil's advocate" 🔰 *Sunk Cost Fallacy:* 💁🏻‍♀️ We keep investing because we already have, even when it's not rational. ❇️ *Example:* A company pours money into a failing product because they've already invested. ✅ *Fix:* Ask, "If I were starting today, would I still invest?" 🔰 *Halo Effect:* 💁🏻‍♀️ Our impression of one trait impacts how we see unrelated ones. ❇️ *Example:* A well-dressed candidate is assumed to be more competent. ✅ *Fix:* Seek evidence, not reputation, appearance, or confidence. 🔰 *Recency Bias:* 💁🏻‍♀️ Recent events have a stronger influence on decisions. ❇️ *Example:* A manager rates an employee based on their last two weeks, ignoring consistent performance all year. ✅ *Fix:* Pull back and look long-term. 🔰 *Optimism Bias:* 💁🏻‍♀️ We believe we're less likely to experience negative outcomes. ❇️ *Example:* Founders assume their business won't fail, even though most do. ✅ *Fix:* Consider worst-case scenarios before making big decisions. 🔰 *Anchoring Bias:* 💁🏻‍♀️ We rely too heavily on the first piece of information we receive. ❇️ *Example:* A job candidate struggles to negotiate upward from a lowball offer. ✅ *Fix:* Don't accept an initial value as your reference point - find independent sources. 🔰 *Self-Serving Bias:* 💁🏻‍♀️ We take credit for successes but blame external factors for failures. ❇️ *Example:* A manager takes credit for a project's success but blames the team if it fails. ✅ *Fix:* Force yourself to own mistakes, not just successes. 🔰 *Negativity Bias:* 💁🏻‍♀️ We give more weight to negative experiences than positive ones. ❇️ *Example:* An employee gets 10 positive comments and I negative, but only remembers the latter ✅ *Fix:* Keep a list of past successes to balance your perception. 🔰 *Availability Heuristic:* 💁🏻‍♀️ We judge the likelihood of events based on how easily examples come to mind ❇️ *Example:* Avoiding flying after seeing a plane crash in the news ✅ *Fix:* If you're using anecdotes, ask: "Is this actually common, or just memorable?"" 🔰 *Dunning-Kruger Effect:* 💁🏻‍♀️ Incompetent people overestimate abilities, experts underestimate ❇️ *Example:* Attempting to rewire your house after watching one YouTube video house ✅ *Fix:* If you're a confident novice, assume you're overestimating and get feedback 🔰 *Framing Effect:* 💁🏻‍♀️ The way information is presented influences our decisions ❇️ *Example:* "90% fat-free" sounds healthier than "10% fat" ✅ *Fix:* Ask, "Would I feel different if this was worded another way?" 🔰 *Bandwagon Effect:* 💁🏻‍♀️ We adopt beliefs or behaviors just because others do. ❇️ *Example:* Consumers rush to buy a trendy item without considering if they actually like it. ✅ *Fix:* Ask, "Would I still believe this if no one else did?" 🔰 *Endowment Effect:* 💁🏻‍♀️ We overvalue things just because we own them. ❇️ *Example:* A person believes their car is worth more than market value just because it's theirs ✅ *Fix:* Ask, "Would I pay this much for it if I didn't already own it?" 🙆🏻‍♀️ *Thanks for reading 📖.

She was drowning. And nobody noticed… Nobody, except her. It was June 2022, at the World Championships in Budapest. Anita Álvarez, an American artistic swimmer with Mexican roots, was performing a flawless routine. But when her performance ended… she didn’t come up for air. She had lost consciousness. Her body floated for a few seconds, then began to sink. Slowly. All the way to the bottom of the pool. The audience didn’t notice. Neither did the judges. Everyone was clapping. But her coach, Andrea Fuentes, noticed. She knew Anita—knew exactly how long it took her to surface. She felt in her heart that something was wrong. Without thinking twice, she dove in. Fully dressed. Shoes and all. She swam straight down, grabbed Anita by the waist, and brought her back up. She saved her life. This story left me thinking… Who knows you well enough to notice when you’re not okay, even if you’re still smiling? Who would dive in for you without hesitation when you no longer have the strength to come up for air? And more importantly… Would you be that person for someone else? Are you present enough in your loved ones’ lives to sense the moment they start to sink? Or are you just another spectator, clapping, not realizing that inside, they’re fading? In this life, we all need someone who doesn’t just see us— but truly notices us. Someone who knows when we’re about to give up, and has the courage to jump in and save us.

‪We all make mistakes. Don’t give up just because you made a mistake. The Almighty knew the mistake way before it ever happened. Instead of feeling miserable and depressed, pray. Ask Him to ease your affairs. Stop focusing on the past and keep moving forward.‬

Anyone else in a monogamous marriage? Does friendship alone work long term? Husband is basically impotent, no sexual desire. Our love has faded to best friends scenario. Am I asking too much or is this life after decades of marraige?
