You're listening to PassionStruck right here on the PassionStruck Network.

Now, back to my conversation with Diana Hill.

Well, I'm going to just do an offshoot from sunk cost fallacy.

I just interviewed Alex Emus and he and Richard Thaler, the Nobel laureate, just rewrote Richard's famous book from 30 years ago.

And on this whole sunk cost fallacy, they review 30 years later, is the science still correct?

So if you want to learn the answer to that, then tune into that episode with Alex, because he goes through it in detail.

Well, that's at the heart of it.

When Thaler originally wrote that book, almost everything was

done in the lab or the classroom.

And now with the evolution of mega studies, especially what Katie Milkman and Angela Duckworth are doing with their behavior change for good initiative, it sure is expanding the validity or non-validity of many of these

theories and biases that came about before.

I completely agree with you.

So in the book, Diana, you describe genius as our unique life force, something that everyone has, not just the gifted few.

But for so many of us, we lose that energy due to distraction or other noise of life that we experience or burnout.

What do you recommend to listeners to help them rediscover that energy?

Diana, thank you for answering that.

And what you just described in your five aspects were personality, talents, interests, character, strengths, and emotional intelligence.

Out of those five, which one do you see most people out of touch with the most?

Thank you for sharing that.

And in the book, you write that every field, whether it's physics, biology, neuroscience, ultimately studies energy.
