Buridan's ass/Cognitive Biases Explained/Wikipedia gameThe NagerBazar Newsletter where I share something useful, something productive and something entertaining.Imagine a hungry donkey placed equidistant from two identical bales of hay. The donkey is equally hungry and has an equal desire for both bales of hay, but cannot decide which one to eat first. As a result, the donkey stands still, unable to choose and eventually dies of hunger. Buridan's ass is a philosophical thought experiment that explores the concept of decision-making when faced with two equally desirable options. The point of the story is to illustrate the dilemma of decision-making when presented with two equally desirable options, which can lead to indecision and inaction. This thought experiment is often used to emphasize the importance of having a clear set of priorities and values when making decisions, to avoid becoming paralyzed by indecision.For.For example, imagine you are trying to decide between two job offers that are equally appealing. Both jobs offer good pay, benefits, and opportunities for growth. However, one job is located closer to your family, while the other offers a more flexible schedule. If you are unable to prioritize your values and make a decision, you may end up stuck in a state of indecision, like Buridan's ass, and miss out on both opportunities. It's important to weigh the pros and cons, consider your values and priorities, and make a decision based on what matters most to you. **One Video I Enjoyed**12 Cognitive Biases Explained - How to Think Better and More Logically Removing Bias **Two Tweets I Enjoyed and Liked**Jay Yang shared 7 simple tips to become a world class storyteller.
