Know Your Bias. There’s no such thing as “objective” when it comes to people. Wikipedia’s list of cognitive biases includes over 100 well-studied examples of how our brains filter information, yet we’re rarely taught to recognize them. Our identities, experiences, and brain functions shape how we interpret the world, often without our awareness. Knowing our biases won’t make them go away, but it’s our best chance of navigating them wisely.
