Why Numbers Don't Have to Be Your Enemy

Why do so many of us freeze when confronted with percentages, graphs, or statistical claims? Perhaps it's because we've been taught to see numbers as cold, abstract entities rather than tools for understanding our world. Yet statistics surrounds us constantly-in medical diagnoses, political debates, weather forecasts, and even dating apps. The real question isn't whether you'll encounter statistics, but whether you'll understand them well enough to avoid being misled. What if the difference between a good decision and a catastrophic one comes down to knowing how to read a simple graph or spot a misleading percentage?
