A few key insights from chapter one:
1. Directionally motivated reasoning, also known as motivated reasoning, is an aspect of human psychology where our unconscious motives direct us to certain conclusions. It is not objective, and instead involves us framing information to fit whatever conclusions we have already made.
2. One common example of motivated reasoning is how we use news stories to support certain narratives. In most cases, people also ignore any information that proves that narrative wrong. While this phenomenon is easy to notice in other people, it can be difficult to recognize when we do it ourselves.
3. In contrast to motivated reasoning, accuracy motivated reasoning evaluates ideas with the question “Is it true?” in mind. Directionally motivated reasoning typically evaluates ideas with the question “Can I believe it?” in mind.
4. It is possible to clarify our judgment - that is what the scout mindset entails. The scout mindset prompts us to recognize and question our assumptions and avoid distorting our perceptions of a problem or situation. The result is better decisions and better relationships with others.

Story
About 2400 years ago, the Greek philosopher Aristotle wrote one of the most important pieces of logic. Within his treatise rhetorical, he showed that the claims are more persuasive when articulated within three distinct but inseparable dimensions: ethos (credibility), logos (reason,) and pathos (emotion). Over the subsequent 125 years, attitudes have generated considerable interest in social sciences because of the widespread perception that they have a strong influence on actions, decisions, and judgments.

The foundations of the study of dark psychology are not modern. The models of classical comedy and tragedy during the height of the Greek Empire illustrate an understanding of this uniquely human capacity even during ancient times. The comedies and tragedies of ancient Greek theater were used as a means for society to experience catharsis - a collective exercise in which social bonding occurred by the creation and release of social tensions as a means of resolving societal conflicts.

Story
The plane is jam-packed. Every seat is taken. So of course the flight is delayed! Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.

Story
Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Story
After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder. "Rule number one for the perfect murder: Evidence is your enemy. Leave none behind." Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”
