Step 2 -Kyle Messenger

Step 2 -Kyle Messenger

We all know how people make some bad assumptions from time to time. They can happen with anything. Such as, schoolwork, relationships, hiring people, and other things we asses. But, what’s important about bad judgments is that they put a huge affect on our world in a negative way.

 Daniel Kahneman wrote an article about making bad judgments. He describes how he was in the Israeli army, what is significant to his argument and the army is that he describes how they drafted soldiers. They picked soldiers by the testing all of them with the same task. Kahneman soon tells us how the results were unreliable and very ineffective with drafting quality personnel for their military. Later, Kahneman describes how a man named “Terry Odean” found some other significance of bad judgment made in the field of the stock market. Odean describes how many people believe they are going to make more money if they have more stocks. But, in fact he claims that having more stocks makes you more likely to make less money. Technically, all throughout the article he describes how skill is more important than experience. This means that people need to invest their time into developing their skills instead of focusing on past lessons or experiences to make their decisions. He makes these points because it can make our world even more developed and can help individual success and certainty of your task. Rather just irrationally guessing.

One thought on “Step 2 -Kyle Messenger

  1. Good start in ten first paragraph, but a think a reader will need you to continue with some example of the kinds of effects created by bad judgments before moving on.

    In the second paragraph, you’ve basically given us some of Kahneman’s points in a nutshell. A reader unfamiliar with Kahneman’s article wouldn’t accurately be able to explain his ideas. So, rather than just referencing Kahneman’s ideas, you’ll need to teach them to readers with explanations, examples. Anticipate readers’ questions and try to fill them in on what they know to be able to use Kahneman’s ideas to improve their own judgments.
