Free Yourself of Opinions and Prejudice

Free Yourself of Opinions and Prejudice

Do you make snap judgments or quick assumptions? Our brains take mental shortcuts that lead to prejudice. In this episode, we discuss the psychology behind prejudices and why they go undetected. Discover how social norms and ego reinforce biased thinking. Learn why flexible mindsets and new experiences are key to countering prejudice. We offer perspective on how "good taste" develops through breaking habits and conscious effort. Our goal is to help you recognize prejudices influencing your life - from communication to major decisions - so you can escape filter bubbles and become a more objective thinker. Tune in to better understand yourself and others. - - - On the growth mindset podcast with Sam Webster Harris, we explore the psychology of happiness, satisfaction, purpose, and growth through the lens of self-improvement. Success and happiness is a state of mind unique to ourselves and is our responsibility to create. Through a process of honest self-reflection of what is holding us back and what is driving us forward, we can lose the ego and build awareness of how to be the best we can be. - - - Connect with Sam: Sam's newsletter on creativity - Explosive Thinking Watch the pod - YouTube (Growth Mindset) Twitter - @samjamharris Instagram - @SamJam.zen Youtube - @Samjam - - - Show: Growth Mindset, psychology of self-improvement Episode: Free Yourself of Opinions and Prejudice Chapters: 0:00 Free Yourself of Opinions and Prejudice 02:24 How Prejudice Happens 04:01 Lacking Awareness of What Change Would be Like 05:59 Communication 07:41 Where People Live 11:12 Lesson from Rick Rubin 11:58 Talent vs. Skill 14:21 Send Off Learn more about your ad choices.
