    Psychology: Your Mind's Hidden Operating System

    Miglior citazione da Psychology: Your Mind's Hidden Operating System

    “

    Understanding the mechanisms behind our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors doesn't diminish the wonder of human consciousness—it enhances it. When you realize that your gut feelings are actually sophisticated emotional intelligence, or that your biases are predictable patterns shaped by evolution, you gain power over them.
