Description

We believe we see the world as it is—but we only see it as we are. 'The Cognitive Filter' decodes the invisible distortions that our self-image places over our perception. Your mind is constantly trying to protect your identity instead of finding the truth.

Learn how to separate your pride from your competence. We examine the mechanisms of cognitive dissonance and how to overcome them to remain radically open to the new. It's about building an 'elastic self' that can grow without breaking. Discover the strength in saying 'I don't know.'

Become the master of objective analysis. We show you methods to identify your own blind spots and how to view feedback as a valuable resource instead of an attack. This book is for leaders and thinkers who feel trapped in their own beliefs. Throw off the filter and see reality in all its unvarnished glory. True intelligence begins where the ego ends. Free your mind and expand your horizons.
