This post was rejected for the following reason(s):

  • Sorry, LessWrong has a particularly high bar for content from new users and this didn't quite make the cut. (We have a somewhat higher bar for approving a user's first post or comment)

  • Missing some rationality basics. Sometimes it’s hard to judge, but my feeling from your submission it fails to apply some of the basic rationality mental motions that are expected on LessWrong. There’s a fairly long list of these, but they include things like focusing on predictions, defining things clearly or tabooing definitions, expressing uncertainty [quantitatively]. See this general intro to LessWrong.

How can someone begin to tackle their own cognitive biases and build rational thinking habits, explained simply as if it were a step-by-step guide or story?
