How do you propose to divide?

Your professor has invited you and your friend for a Pizza. This Pizza consists of twelve slices.
The professor announces that you will get four slices and your friend will get two slices.
He further tells that you and your friend can have the full pizza if you both agree on how to divide it up. If you fail to agree, then you both will still get six slices as mentioned above.
Your professor awaits your proposed ratio and the rationale. Go ahead and claim the full Pizza.

The mistakes we make in our everyday life

We human beings engage in thinking and decision making in our daily life. It is our ability to solve problems and choose the best course of action, which leads to better outcomes. But we also make systematic errors when we think and at times we don’t even realize. We fail to think clearly because of our emotions such as anger or fear and this leads to wrong decision making as well as avoidable harm.

These systematic errors are known as biases. We can learn, understand to notice these biases within us and around us. Once we know, then we can also take action to avoid these biases, prejudices and beliefs and act to avoid the harm. Biases are systematic and predictable errors we make.
