In this episode of Catching Fire: How Teams Win, host Mohamed Hanbal delves into the topic of nostalgia and how our brains have a tendency to view the past through rose-colored glasses. He discusses the cognitive biases that trick us into thinking that the past was better than the present, citing insights from brain science and psychology. Hanbal explores three scientific reasons why we often perceive the past as more positive, shedding light on the influence of self-image, abstract thinking, and relativity in shaping our memories. By unraveling the illusion of nostalgia, listeners will gain a deeper understanding of how our perceptions of the past can impact our emotional states and decision-making processes.
