Indeed, the world can be said to be divided into two types of people - those with a right and those with a wrong sense of what it means to be right or wrong.

We have been trying to be right for the wrong reason or trying to get it right for the wrong purpose for a long time. We have been using the 18th Century brain to guide our thinking in the 21st century.

Here's a simple truth that most of us are unable of. Oftentimes, being absolutely rational can still get us nowhere. It can even lead us the wrong way to the wrong end.

Truly, human behavior can sometimes be counterrational. More information, less insight. More Analyses, less accuracy. More Money, less interest. More comparison, less clarity.

It's not a tragedy that we are not totally rational. It's tragedy that we don't think we are. It's not a tragedy that we allow subjective feelings to override objective reasoning. It's a tragedy that we don't think we do. It's not a tragedy that we have an impulsive mind that is easily influenced. It's tragedy that we don't think we have.

The human brain seems to have a split personality. It is as suggestible as it is unsuggestible. On the one hand, it's easily persuaded by the smallest of suggestions. On the other hand, it can be more close-minded than an extremist and more stubborn than an idiot.

We have overestimated how objective we are. More to the point: we have underestimated how unobjective we are. Our brains mostly don't see or respond to something as it really is, but as it appears to be.

Everything is more meaningful when it's fair and just. Victories are more satisfying when justly earned; defects are more acceptable when there's no foul play; and losses are more tolerable when there's no cheating involved.

Truly, many behaviors that don't quite make sense from a rational viewpoint make sense from a psychological standpoint. The opposite is equally true.

To err is human. To err in our judgement is even more human. And one of the most common ways in which we err in our judgement is the way we justify our behaviour with tolerance and judge other people's behaviour with intolerance.
