Shadows of the Neanderthal

Its funnie how ppl keep posing questions to me...the even stranger thing is how i even manage to ans them... hm... am i weird..? i do thk so at times... as i type this blog... the sky is getting darker... seems like me life... bleak... haha... lighthouse... lighthouse...

I've already made up my mind... i ain't doing anything bout' certain things... if it flows... good lor.. if it doesn't.. i'm fine with it... seriously... some ppl shld juz take things easy... dun be so stubborn and be open to ideas.. i was reading the book... "Shadows of the Neanderthal" by David Hutchens. Its about mental models and how it limits our ability to share insights and make progress. It also touches on how we should learn to surface, share and challenge our own and others' hidden beliefs and recognise how they inform or misinform on wat we do. A short book with wicked humour... Its bout' a caveman named Boggie and his frens who refuses to come out of their cave juz becoz they refused to challenge their beliefs although Boggie eventually did and accepted the new information. There's this model called the "Ladder of Inference" which is darn true... about how we often select certain stuff, make assumptions, draw conclusions and thereafter adopt beliefs... V interesting... I wonder how long i will rem wat i read... haha...
