318. Prudence, Fast and Slow

from The OptimalWork Podcast Hosted by OptimalWork

#318: How do people make good decisions without getting trapped by their first impression? Sharif and Kevin explore the first act of prudence—counsel—and why clear thinking begins with making genuine contact with reality. They unpack the role of intuition, experience, memory, and advice, while showing how anxiety and desire can turn an initial hunch into premature certainty. Kevin explains why strong intuition should be a starting point rather than a conclusion, and offers a practical question from Daniel Kahneman that can expose hidden assumptions, reopen curiosity, and help people see options they may have missed.
