✨ *7 things psychology says about cognitive biases*
1. *Negativity bias makes bad experiences louder* — Negative events and emotions psychologically weigh more heavily than positive ones of equal size.
2. *The IKEA effect inflates the value of things we build ourselves* — We overvalue what we've personally assembled or created, regardless of its objective quality.
3. *Confirmation bias filters out disagreeing evidence* — We naturally notice and remember information that confirms what we already believe, and downplay what contradicts it.
4. *Hindsight bias makes outcomes feel obvious after the fact* — Once we know how something turned out, we convince ourselves we 'knew it all along.'
5. *The bandwagon effect pulls beliefs toward the crowd* — The more people who seem to believe something, the more likely we are to adopt it too — regardless of evidence.
6. *Sunk cost fallacy keeps us in bad situations* — We keep investing time or money into something simply because we've already invested, not because it still makes sense.
7. *The availability heuristic overweights vivid memories* — We judge how common or likely something is by how easily an example comes to mind — not by actual statistics.

📌 *7 mind tricks your brain plays on you every day*
1. *Implementation intentions boost follow-through* — Simply deciding 'when X happens, I will do Y' measurably increases the odds of actually doing it.
2. *REM sleep processes emotional memory* — Dreaming sleep appears to help the brain file away and 'defuse' the emotional charge of the day's events.
3. *Isolation is a common early control tactic* — Slowly discouraging contact with friends and family increases dependence on one person or relationship.
4. *Negging plants small doubts disguised as compliments* — Backhanded remarks are designed to lower someone's confidence just enough to make them seek approval.
5. *Hindsight bias makes outcomes feel obvious after the fact* — Once we know how something turned out, we convince ourselves we 'knew it all along.'
6. *Reciprocity is one of the strongest social pulls* — Once someone does something for us, we feel a strong, often unconscious pull to return the favor.
7. *Multitasking while learning weakens retention* — Splitting attention during encoding measurably reduces how well new information sticks.

👁️ *4 facts: Memory & Learning*
1. *The forgetting curve is steepest right after learning* — Without review, we lose the majority of new information within the first 24 hours — which is why early repetition matters most.
2. *Memory is reconstructive, not a replay* — Every time we recall a memory, we're rebuilding it — which is part of why memories can subtly shift over time.
3. *Testing yourself strengthens memory more than re-reading* — Actively recalling information (like with flashcards) creates stronger memory traces than passively reviewing notes.
4. *Emotion tags memories as more important* — Emotionally charged events are generally remembered in more vivid detail than neutral ones.

2. *Specific goals outperform vague ones* — 'Walk 20 minutes daily' consistently beats 'exercise more' at producing actual behavior change.
3. *Small identity shifts change behavior more than goals do* — 'I'm becoming someone who reads' tends to sustain a habit longer than 'I want to read more books.'
4. *Environment design beats motivation for consistency* — Removing friction from good habits (and adding friction to bad ones) outperforms relying on willpower alone.
5. *Implementation intentions boost follow-through* — Simply deciding 'when X happens, I will do Y' measurably increases the odds of actually doing it.
