09 The Power of Habits, Creative Problem Solving, & Re-framing Failure w/ Dr. Art Markman

Art Markman is a cognitive psychologist who studies human behavior, motivation, habits, and cognition.

I had a fascinating conversation with Art about the adaptive purpose of our tendency towards habitual behavior and thinking, the use of metaphor and analogy in thinking creatively and solving new problems, how failure is our greatest teacher, his journey learning the saxophone as an adult, the value of scientists sharing their work with the general public, and much more. Art is a wise human and I'm grateful to have had the chance to talk with him and share it with you.
