THE SUNK COST FALLACY

from Spontaneous Brilliance Podcast · host Sandra Cavanaugh

We've all stuck with something longer than we probably should have simply because of how much we had already invested in it. The "sunk cost fallacy" is holding onto a situation or circumstance that no longer serves you simply because you have already invested time, energy, or money and you can't let it "all be for nothing". Sandra shows us how to recognize what she calls a Sunk Cost Rut by helping us see our behaviors and beliefs through the prism of The Metaphorical Metaphysical Guide of Spontaneous Brilliance in this invaluable guide. And remember, the door is open! Sandra and the whole team here at Spontaneous Brilliance are here for you.
