Are you guilty of distorted thinking? Yup!

It's true, we are all susceptible to cognitive biases, perhaps this awesome song will help you remember the multiple ways in which our homo sapiens brain wrongly perceive the world.

Even when we aren't victims of distorted thinking, we still have the tendency to put obstacles in our way through self-imposed limitations and functional fixedness (this video demonstrates a lack of functional fixedness).   

Perhaps an understanding concept and schema formation would be good medicine for overcoming all these obstacles to clear, objective thinking?

  1. @ TyRon, It's always really comforting if you are able to "over" stand something :)
