0:17
Charlie Munger also known as warren
0:19
buffett’s former business partner create
0:21
a list of 25 cognitive biases that can
0:24
affect our decisions now not every
0:26
person falls for all these and some
0:29
biases will affect you more than others
0:30
but if you master these biases will
0:33
become a better persuader and become
0:35
better at preventing impulse decisions
0:37
that you might regret later
0:39
so if you like getting scammed then
0:42
don’t watch this entire video otherwise
0:44
let’s get started now I personally would
0:48
separate these into different biases but
0:51
the first one is reward / punishment
0:53
tendency if you want to persuade people
0:55
just offer them big rewards and
0:58
incentives practically everyone has a
1:00
price
1:01
this might seem obvious but Charlie says
1:04
every year he realizes how much she is
1:06
underestimated the power of incentives
1:08
so this bias alone is worth spending
1:11
hours talking about on the other hand
1:14
people tend to flee from punishment so
1:17
you want someone to lose weight or to
1:19
quit drugs and start by telling them all
1:21
the potential health issues
1:23
the second is liking / loving tendency
1:26
we tend to ignore the faults of other
1:28
people products are companies that we
1:30
admire one of my favorite books on this
1:33
subject is how to win friends and
1:35
influence people by dale carnegie but in
1:38
general just be nice
1:39
look sexy and people will be hypnotized
1:42
by you the third bias is the opposite
1:45
disliking / hating tendency how much
1:48
people ever talk about the good Hitler
1:50
did why because we tend to ignore the
1:53
virtues and positive stuff about people
1:55
we dislike the fourth is about avoidance
1:58
tendency if we are unsure about the
2:00
decision we try to quickly remove any
2:03
doubt by making an ill-informed quick
2:05
decision if you want to become more
2:07
persuasive than simply increase your
2:10
certainty like if you don’t enjoy the
2:12
rest of this video then I promise you a
2:15
free time sheet so i can refund your
2:17
time
2:18
no questions asked the fifth is
2:21
inconsistency avoidance tendency our
2:24
brain conserves programming space by
2:26
being reluctant to change its while
2:28
eliminating bad habits can be difficult
2:31
the foot-in-the-door technique is a
2:33
great example of how people like to stay
2:35
consistent for example can I borrow the
2:38
car to go to school followed by can
2:41
borrow the car for the weekend
2:43
the idea is to get people to agree to a
2:45
small task or request first then they’ll
2:47
be more likely to agree to a bigger one
2:50
the sixth curiosity tendency curiosity
2:54
has been one of the main drivers in
2:55
human progress throughout history
2:58
imagine if no other resources existed
3:00
where you can learn the rest of the 25
3:02
biases from and I said you have to buy
3:05
my ebook for seven dollars to learn the
3:07
rest
3:08
how would that make you feel the seventh
3:11
is canteen fairness tendency which is
3:13
pretty much the golden rule that is to
3:15
treat others how you want to be treated
3:17
it’s the bias that makes a 300-pound big
3:19
guy willing to line up behind an old
3:21
lady and follow the first come first
3:23
serve rule
3:24
another example is lighting and other
3:26
drivers on the freeway believing that
3:28
they will reciprocate in the future so
3:31
think about situations where you get mad
3:33
at strangers for not sharing who don’t
3:35
even owe you anything
3:37
the eighth is envy / jealousy this is
3:40
self-explanatory
3:42
Warren Buffett says it is not greed that
3:44
drives the world but Envy so be careful
3:47
with this one is showing off too much
3:49
might make people dislike you like this
3:52
is one of the reasons some people don’t
3:54
like Donald Trump the ninth is
3:56
reciprocation tendency which is related
3:58
to the seventh we tend to want to return
4:01
the favor when someone gives us
4:02
something or helps us out
4:04
this is why some supermarkets offer free
4:06
samples or white car salesman’s might
4:09
offer free coffee but it is not why my
4:12
ebook is free
4:13
I’m just nice the 10th is influenced
4:17
from mere Association tendency when
4:20
Mikey found out that many pack out
4:22
called the gay community dumber than
4:24
animals they immediately ended their
4:26
long-term partnership with him
4:28
association is that powerful and that is
4:31
why models are often used to showcase
4:33
products
