(and how to fight them):
(and how to fight them):
1) Dunning-Kruger Effect
People who know very little about something tend to think they know a lot about that something
Rule of thumb:
The moment you think you know a lot about your market, that& #39;s the moment you should be most careful because your mind is playing tricks on you

2) Confirmation Bias
You tend to see what you want to see.
Two people could be looking at the same situation and think the opposite things.
This is why it& #39;s important to both know you& #39;re vulnerable and to have a friend that calls you on your shit

3) Loss Aversion
Losing $100 is more painful than making $100.

Zooming out gets rid of most problems

5) Curse of Knowledge
When you know something you assume everyone does as well.
This is especially harmful to sales.
Focus on ONE thing that your product does. And make your pitch around that. Bite your tongue when you feel tempted to rant about bells and whistles.
