🚧 You’ve wandered into a construction zone. Currently, it’s more rubble than resource, but please check back later.
Many of the things I want to understand about the world circle back to cognitive psychology, which is the study of internal mental processes, including thinking, reasoning, decision-making, and perception. I run across enough of this type of stuff in my research that I felt it was time to give it its own category.
Notes on the hidden shortcuts and blind spots that shape how we think, decide, and lead. Here you’ll find patterns like overconfidence, self-serving bias, and hubris—habits of mind that can inflate our sense of performance or distort feedback. These notes don’t just catalog flaws; they point to strategies for awareness and adjustment, helping turn cognitive traps into opportunities for clearer judgment and better growth.
