You’ll learn how early information sets mental frames, why first numbers become anchors, and how your brain relies on recent context to move faster, even when it misleads you.This is why first impressions stick, opening prices dominate negotiations, and headlines outweigh full stories.You’re not as objective as you think.Your brain is always starting from wherever it began.🧠 The first input sets the lens for everything that follows.
