Know this!!! Your brain is constantly fooling you!

(Click on the title of this post to read the entire post.)

You are constantly being misled by your brain, and until you understand that you are living life far below where it could be lived, you will in fact be giving away a good portion of your life!!!

Because he knows and understands how the brain "makes up things", much more than you think (!!!!),  Charlie Munger employs a “two track” analysis: 

1. What are the facts; and 

2. Where is my brain fooling me?

As I write the Smart (and easy) Self Control book, I am trying to make a convincing argument that much of what the brain tells us is just plain wrong.  And some of it is 10,000 years obsolete.  So we don't have to obey its impulses or even believe its perceptions.  (You'll have to read the book to see what the strategies are to make it work right!)
