There is never just one cause for an event.

Hello, dear friends! Thank you for joining me for this new episode of "Walk with Johan" and I am very very happy, very happy, very proud even, that you decide to spend these few moments with me. Today, we are going to talk about a subject, you will see, which is a little linked to psychology, the way humans reason, the way humans think, so it is a very theoretical subject, but we are going to see how to apply it in our lives, quite simply.

Before starting or before moving on to the content, I strongly advise you, if you haven't already done so, to visit the link in the description to join the Français Authentique newsletter and receive exclusive content directly in your mailbox very regularly.

So today, we're going to talk about a human bias. A bias is a shortcut that our brain makes. We also call it a heuristic. A heuristic is a shortcut that our brain makes, and a bias is a shortcut that can push us to make mistakes. And here, that's exactly what we're going to see, a human bias that pushes us to make mistakes and sometimes to make bad decisions.

So heuristics are, as I said, shortcuts that our brain makes. Our brain consumes a lot of energy and it cannot be constantly working with all its capacities and it has created shortcuts to save energy, so that we are not always thinking about each of our actions.

And these heuristics are very useful to solve certain problems quickly and efficiently. In fact, we have been preprogrammed, our brain is preprogrammed with certain reasoning taiwan whatsapp number data that we use automatically in order to be efficient. So these are shortcuts. Sometimes, it pushes us to make mistakes in the analysis of certain problems and therefore to make bad decisions, because these heuristics arrived via evolution and today's world is much more complex than that of our ancestors.

So our ancestors who led to the creation of these heuristics lived in a world that was completely different from the world we live in.

A reasoning error that I often encounter on a daily basis, in my life as a creator of Authentic French but also in my personal life, is to attribute a single cause to an event. There is an event that happens, something occurs and we say "it's that's the fault of that". We look for a single cause for an event.

So for me, for example, when we imagine… because when I say “I meet him,” I see him in others, but I fall into that trap too and I try to fight that bias because it can push us to make bad decisions, as I was saying, but for example, imagine, you have an opening of the academy that is less good than the others. I had hoped that it would be better, but there are fewer members who register than what I had hoped and what I thought.
