Do you sometimes feel that you disrupt your own happiness and success?
Are you overworked to make sense of yourself?
Do your emotions often control you?
Stuart and I got a recommendation to read a book entitled “The Chimp Paradox: The Acclaimed Mind Management”. This book is an incredibly powerful mind management model that can help you become a happy, confident, healthier, and more successful person.
Join us in this episode while we discuss these interesting points:
- Author Prof Steve Peters
- Psychiatrist working on performance and function of brains
- Helps business but also sports like FC Liverpool
- Chimp vs human
- How this compares to Kahneman: thinking fast and slow
- And then there is the computer and the goblins within it. How to learn about finding these goblins (false beliefs).
- Manage your inner chimp and how the question “Do you want to behave/feel this way?” helps you.
- Keep focusing on solutions. “What’s in your boat?”
- Celebrate your wins

Join The Effective Statistician LinkedIn group
This group was set up to help each other to become more effective statisticians. We’ll run challenges in this group, e.g. around writing abstracts for conferences or other projects. I’ll also post into this group further content.
I want to help the community of statisticians, data scientists, programmers and other quantitative scientists to be more influential, innovative, and effective. I believe that as a community we can help our research, our regulatory and payer systems, and ultimately physicians and patients take better decisions based on better evidence.
I work to achieve a future in which everyone can access the right evidence in the right format at the right time to make sound decisions.
When my kids are sick, I want to have good evidence to discuss with the physician about the different therapy choices.
When my mother is sick, I want her to understand the evidence and being able to understand it.
When I get sick, I want to find evidence that I can trust and that helps me to have meaningful discussions with my healthcare professionals.
I want to live in a world, where the media reports correctly about medical evidence and in which society distinguishes between fake evidence and real evidence.
Let’s work together to achieve this.
