Publisher's Synopsis
Have you ever wondered why we sometimes hold onto certain beliefs, even when the evidence says otherwise, or why we might automatically jump to conclusions without realizing it? THE PSYCHOLOGY OF PERSONAL GROWTH sheds light on these everyday mental shortcuts, by educating us about cognitive biases that quietly shape how we think, decide, and perceive the world around us.
With clear, relatable examples and practical insights, this book dives into familiar biases like confirmation bias and introduces others, like the Dunning-Kruger effect, revealing just how these patterns affect our interactions, choices and emotions. Rather than just explaining theories, this guide helps you recognize biases in your own thinking and in conversations with others. It's a great read for psychology enthusiasts, self-improvement seekers, or anyone interested in seeing the world-and themselves-with a bit more clarity.
