The Secrets of Perfect Decision-Making, based on the million-copy bestselling book. Have you ever...* Invested time in something that, with hindsight, just wasn't worth it? * Overpaid in an eBay auction? * Continued doing something you knew was bad for you? * Sold stocks too late, or too early? * Taken credit for success, but blamed failure on external circumstances? * Backed the wrong horse? These are examples of cognitive biases, simple errors we all make in our day-to-day thinking. But by knowing what they are and how to spot them, we can avoid them and make better choices - whether dealing with a personal problem or a business negotiation; trying to save money or make money; working out what we do or don't want in life, and how best to get it. Users will answer a series of short questions based on the type of decision they are making - Money, Work, Time, or People - then the most relevant cognitive biases will be revealed, allowing them to avoid these common errors.Simple, straightforward and always surprising, this app will change the way you think - at work, at home, every day.
