Episode description

To solve this problem and make decisions, the mind creates maps (mental models) of reality in order to understand it, because the only way we can process the complexity of reality is through abstraction. However we don’t understand our maps or their limits. In fact, we are so reliant on abstraction that we will frequently use an incorrect model simply because we feel any model is preferable to no model. The map is the tool the decision is still yours.
