Episode description
Tune in to hear:
- In his new book, why did Dr. Sivarajan feel that a story was the best means to convey behavioral and philosophical truths?
- What steps can we take to ensure we are “climbing the right ladder” and why do we often get this so wrong?
- If we find ourselves pursuing the wrong goals and being motivated by the wrong things how can we start fresh?
- What is the story of Ferrari vs. Lamborghini for those who don’t know and how does Dr. Sivarajan relate this to mimetic desire and mimetic competition?
- In a particularly bad year, how do we encourage our clients to embrace the idea that markets, and life more generally, are just this way sometimes and there’s not much we can do about it?
- What interesting takeaways did Dr. Sivarajan find in his research on risk tolerance questionnaires?
