We want simple solutions vs. enablement frameworks - Michael Pollen - eat food, not too much, mostly plants

Heuristics
- requires little time, little effort and doesn't require attention

  • availability,
  • representativeness,
  • anchoring and adjustment
  • RESULT: Oversimplfy Causation Attribution (OSA), Predictions, Strategy, Solution Impact,

Cognitive Bias
- rather than using 1st Principle Thinking, we use these short cuts to reduce time, effort and attention. We fit things nicely into our existing narratives.

  • Hundreds of biases. We fit
  • RESULT: Simple Explanation of Complex Systems (SEOCS) or Simple Models of Complex Systems (SMOCS), Simple Predictions, Simple Strategies, Simple Solution Impact

Avoid Cognitive Dissonance
- we don't like waking up at 3am when our subconsience is demanding attention to it's struggle with cognitive dissonces

  • RESULT: Mentally Soothing Explanation of Complex Systems (MSECS), Predictions, Strategies, Impact Results

In their paper “Judgment Under Uncertainty: Heuristics and Biases” (1974)2, Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky identified three different kinds of heuristics: availability, representativeness, and anchoring and adjustment
