#2177 Wisdom vs. Intelligence - Prof. Barry Schwartz

from The You Project Hosted by Craig Harper

I loved this conversation with highly renowned American psychologist, Professor Barry Schwartz. I still have to pinch myself sometimes with the quality of guests that join me for a chat, brilliant people from all over the world. As per the title, we chatted about the gap between wisdom and intelligence - knowing things and how effectively we use that knowledge. We talk about the decisions that we make, big and small, and also the decisions that we don't make, that we could and should. We talk about all the places that echo chambers dominate and thrive in Religion, Science, social groups, politics, sport, etc. - and the impact those echo chambers can have on a life. This was much more of a free flowing conversation than anything resembling an interview, and I really enjoyed my time with the Prof.
