rethink is a skill set but also a mindset...

Mike Lazaridis.........??

we often slip into the mindsets of three dff professions:

// not thinging about our own views...

the ability to rethink and unlearn

first-instinct fallacy.....??

causes...::

seizing and freezing..........??(Psychologist)

// rethinking is fundamental to scientist profession.

paid to constantly aware the limits of your understanding
expected to doubt what you know, be curious about what you don’t know, and update your views based on new data.

// This is a way of thinking that differ from p^3

// sometimes even great scientist need to think more like scientists...

Mental horsepower doesn’t guarantee mental dexterity.
the smarter you are the more you might struggle to update your beliefs. Two bias that drives this pattern - confirmation bias : seeing what you expect. - desirability bias : seeing what we want.. { giving reasons to preach, prosecute and winning people over.. P^3 }
```
  // and unaware of resulting flaws in our thinking...
```
Thinking like a scientist involves being actively open-minded. // requires search for reasons why we might be wrong and not right...

what set great presidents apart was their intellectual curiosity and openness and how widely they read

rethinking starts with intellectual humillity - knowing what we don't know. & and should be able to make a long list of areas where we are ignorant.

as we question our current understanding we become curious about information we are missing.. this leads us to new discoveries. which in turn maintain our humility by reinforcing how much we still have to learn.

scientific thinking favors humilty over pride, doubt ovrer certainty, curiosity over closure.

//Thinking different != rethinking....

// research shows that when people are resistance to change, it helps to reinforce what will stay the same..

The curse of knowlegde is that it closes our mind to what we don't know.

Anton’s syndrome...............??

Dunning-Kruger effect....??

“The first rule of the Dunning-Kruger club is you don’t know you’re a member of the Dunning-Kruger club."

When we lack the knowledge and skills to achieve excellence, we sometimes lack the knowledge and skills to judge excellence.

Advancing from novice to amateur can break the rethinking cycle. as we gain experince, we lose some of our humility.
confidence is a measure of how much you believe in yourself.
evidence shows that's distinct from how much you believe in your methods.

// we become blinded by arrogance when we're utterly convinced of our strengths and our strategies.

inferiority complex....???

// having confidence in the capacity to learn..
