What I Don’t Know
From Daniel Kahneman’s Thinking, Fast and Slow (2011), a book that took me thirteenth months to complete:
The notion that we have limited access to the workings of our minds is difficult to accept because, naturally it is alien to our experience, but it is true: you know far less about yourself than you feel you do…. [1]
the confidence that people have in their intuitions is not a reliable guide to their validity. In other words, do not trust anyone—including yourself—to tell you how much you should trust their judgment….[2]
Nothing in life is as important as you think it is when you are thinking about it.[3]
