BIASED
Human beings are naturally biased. Bias is built into our DNA, fuelled by our experiences, beliefs, emotions and ideologies. No matter how hard we try, we can never be truly unbiased. Bias has a natural, normal role and can help us survive and thrive but if we let bias overwhelm us, possibility becomes… well…impossible.
We all like to think we're rational but in reality, our biases make us think and act irrationally. We all have a bias blind spot, meaning we are less likely to detect bias in ourselves than others.
So, as we cocreate our lives and our futures, bias can stop us from seeing the endless possibilities available to us in every moment. If we ignore bias, bias can sacrifice our truth on the altar of conformity, commerce and compliance.
But if we acknowledge our bias, we can open up, commit and work to transform our own, unique possibility into our own, unique reality.
