The book uses research done at the Harvard Business school and in some of the worlds other leading universities. It's been rigorously tested in organisations of all sizes around the world as well.

"You might be tempted to try to make decisions in your life based on what happened in the past or what has happened to other people. You should learn all that you can from the past; from scholars who have studied it, and from people who have gone through problems of that sort that you are likely to face. 

But that does not solve the fundamental challenge of what information you should accept and which you should ignore as you embark into the future. Instead using robust theory to predict what will happen has a much greater chance of success. The theories in this book are based on a deep understanding of human endeavour - what causes what to happen and why. They have been rigorously examined and used in organisations all over the globe, and can help all of us with decisions that we make every day in our lives, too”.

This is a continuation from the first episode which was about building Internal Self Awareness.

Dr Tasha Eurisch is an organisational psychologist, researcher and a New York best-selling author. With studies from other psychologists she wrote Insight for anyone who wants to make the leap from self-blindness to self-insight, and in turn, reap the rewards of smarter choices, stronger relationships and a better life. She believes that there are people who think they are self-aware and actually are and her vision is to create more of the latter.

In this episode I summarise her learnings on how to build External Self-Awareness as well as who are the kind of people who live in this Self-Deluded world.

She goes as far as saying “self-awareness is the meta skill of the 21st century”! I picked this book to start off with as I thought what better way to start off the series than to understand the importance of Introspection for Self Awareness. 

In this episode I summarise 4 of her learnings on how to build Internal Self-Awareness. In the next episode, we will cover her thoughts on how to build external self awareness.
