We all know that people have cognitive biases and fallible memories and beliefs—or at least we know that other people do. It’s hard to remember that we ourselves have them. There’s actually a name for that—bias blind spot, where we assume that we’re less biased than other people. There’s no real way to get rid of this lizard brain irrationality altogether, but we can be aware of these inaccurate beliefs and correct or compensate for them consciously.
