One way to make better decisions is to make sure you’re applying the right system to the right situation.
Ever wondered how your brain decides whether to grab that second slice of cake or hit the gym instead? In this episode of 'The One You Feed', Eric Zimmer sits down with David Redish, a neuroscience professor at the University of Minnesota, to break down the fascinating world of decision-making. Redish, who has a rich background in computer science and cognitive neuroscience, shares his insights into the four distinct systems our brains use to make decisions.
From reflexive actions controlled by the Pavlovian system to the complex processes behind addiction, Redish sheds light on what drives our choices and how we can harness this knowledge to improve our lives. He also touches on the importance of forming good habits and the benefits of contingency management.
If you're curious about why you sometimes make irrational choices or how you can train your brain to make better ones, this episode offers practical tips and deep dives into the science behind our everyday decisions.
