  1. Think But How How Preconceived Notions Hijack Your Mind?

  2. The Evolution of Cognitive Autopilot You can think of cognitive biases as thinking on autopilot.  Many aircraft have an autopilot system that enables the plane to operate without the pilot intervening. It’s designed to give pilots a break from making thousands of decisions over the span of the flight. That way they can save energy and be ready for really important decisions like when and where to land the plane.

  3. How Thinking on Autopilot Hurts People Imagine you are interviewing a handsome guy that is well dressed to manage your family money, and you judge him to be hard-working and competent by his looks. It turns out that this man is a younger Charles Ponzi, and you end up hiring a con man.

  4. 3 Ways to Manage the Cognitive Autopilot As we discussed earlier, we can’t eliminate thinking on autopilot. It’s part of our evolutionary inheritance. However, there are 3 things that we can do to minimize the harmful effects of thinking on autopilot.  • Accept that we can’t eliminate thinking on autopilot. • Know the limitations of thinking on autopilot. • Manage the tendency of thinking on autopilot by withholding. 

  5. Free Thinker Approach to Automatic Thinking We can’t change the cognitive biases we have, but we can change whether we act on them. Free thinkers are committed to knowing and understanding what’s true, so they’re going to reject many of the decisions we make on autopilot.
