...wishful thinking, or symptom management, rather than cutting at the root of the issue (less than rational thinking)? Would be happy to be corrected here.
Basically, it’s remembering to take a step back when thinking through a thorny problem, be it interpersonal, business, or technical, and asking yourself “are one of the big biases at work here?”. It has also informed some of my work habits. For example, I’m less likely now to share investment ideas with more than a couple close associates so that I’m less likely to suffer from commitment and consistency bias.
