TKP Insights: Making (Even) Better Decisions [The Knowledge Project Ep. #150]

In the second Insights episode, we curate essential segments from five past episodes, around one theme: decision-making.

Combining some of the most illuminating insights from past guests in the fields of business, cognitive psychology, and even high-stakes poker, this episode breaks down the three types of decision-makers, how to control your emotions when making decisions, why it’s crucial to look at every decision differently, the processes for coming to the right decision, and how to learn from your mistakes when you get it wrong.
