Why does a person with a high IQ make stupid decisions? Accident? Pattern! Famous blogger and author of the book “FreshLife28. How to start a new life on Monday and not quit on Tuesday” Anton Petryakov, who turned thousands of fat men into lean handsome men, is sure that the virus of idiocy is to blame for everything. Our brain deceives us. It almost always throws an error when certain conditions occur. We make choices with the confidence of our own minds, while our inner monkey is at the helm. And giving her the reins of power is nothing more than a bad habit. These are cognitive distortions. The good news is that quitting being an idiot is no harder than quitting eating hamburgers. Petryakov proposes to develop immunity to a dangerous virus and transfer control of life to Homo sapiens.
