Daniel Kahneman: The riddle of experience vs. memory<\/h3>\n

This is such a great talk. I’m now being able to apply Danny’s insights. I don’t trust my remembering self
and so don’t bias future experience, i.e. when the thought of a specific task, chore or other responsibility
causes a negative reaction, I don’t value it. Because what I’m finding is that, by and large, my memory of
negative experiences is worse than the experience itself.<\/p>\n

Also, when a situation is about to come to a close, but it’s ending badly, I’ll extend the experience long
enough that the last thing that happens isn’t negative. For example, this morning I was awoken by a
loud noise a neighbor was making. Rather than get up angry and frustrated, I stayed in bed. The noise
ended shortly thereafter and I managed to get another 10 minute cat nap. I woke up refreshed and with
the sense I’d had a good night sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
