1.6.2
Ever feel like everyone is watching you?
- You spill coffee on your shirt.
- You walk into a room late.
- You say something stupid
And suddenly it feels like everyone noticed
But most people probably didn't
It's called the Spotlight Effect
We tend to overestimate how much other people notice us
Money has its own version:
- You make a bad investment.
- You lose money.
You think:
“Everyone can see I messed up.”
So you hold onto the mistake just to avoid admitting it
Sometimes we're not protecting our money
We're protecting our IMAGE
And ego can be expensive
