The Five Cognitive Distortions of People Who Get Stuff Done
By Michael Dearing. Couldn’t find any video and not sure if this is tongue-in-cheek (like the “48 Laws of Power”.) The distortions are:
- Personal Exceptionalism
“I am special.” - Dichotomous Thinking
“X is sh*t. Y is genius.” - Correct Overgeneralization
“I see two dots and draw the right line.” - Blank-Canvas Thinking
“Painting by numbers isn’t art. And I want to make art.” - Schumpeterianism
“I am a creative destruction machine.”
TL;DR be a ruthless, inflexible, self-absorbed dick so you can identify, refine, and deliver Value™.
