Mass Psychosis: How An Entire Population Becomes Stupid & How To Get Ahead Of Everyone | Dan Ariely PT 2

Welcome back to part two of this thought-provoking conversation with world renowned social scientist, Dan Ariely. We continue unpacking the complexity of human rationale and mass psychosis you’ve probably encountered more times than you can count. We head for the deep in this round to really unpack why you need a northstar to move confidently forward toward a life of fulfillment, and you need to distrust yourself, your beliefs, and certainly your emotions simultaneously. By the end of this two part episode,  Avoid irrational traps we are calling the funnel of misbelief, Understand how to escape corrosive-information and seek objective truth Choose a northstar with flexibility that allows you to prioritize fulfillment This episode is about no longer allowing your emotions to be hijacked without your knowledge, and understanding exactly how they’ve been leveraged against you to form beliefs that need to be questioned.  “I don't want to be 100% sure of anything that is going to color my worldview, or at least I'm going to be very, very cautious before I get there.” -Dan Ariely Dan Ariely, not only challenges the status quo with his groundbreaking research into human irrationality at Duke University, he also confronts the mass psychosis and misinformation epidemic, using his profound understanding of behavioral economics and personal experiences to shed light on our predictably irrational patterns of thought.
