This is the start of a new series on cognitive biases. To present the series in an organized fashion I found around 200 biases and then categorized them in a way that would be relevant to what we do here on The Brainy Business. I came up with eight categories, and I will go over each bias in the category in a pretty quick succession.
A cognitive bias is an error in the way humans think. It's a way that is often not in our best interest. These biases aren't random. They are predictable and that is the basis for behavioral economics. This week we are talking about those personal biases that lead us all to believe we are uniquely talented and awesome…and generally better than everyone else.
As you listen to the list, think about yourself – how have you experienced this in your own life? And also think about other people – have you seen this in others? How could you use that bias in the way you message to customers or attract people to your business?
