How much time we spend with ourselves. How much do we introspect? Do we rethink and access our actions on a particular scenario?
If we are coming to the same mistake again and again, are we any different from the lab rats?
I remember reading Charlie Munger’s biography where he talks about the inversion mechanism. I found it worth considering. But to apply the framework of thousand other mental models shared by social scientists, we need to introspect.
We are running a sprint without knowing our blind spots because we are thrown the carrot aka incentives in winning prize.
