7 habits of highly effective people images

Reminds me of this song from Madonna from her Album Frozen – Whenever we meet someone with contradictory views, we instinctively label his beliefs as delusional, rather than realising that perhaps we’re the ones who could learn something. Naive Realism is the false belief that we always see the world without bias or error, as it truly is. Lee Ross, a social psychologist, coined this term in the 1990s.

In social psychology, this tendency is known as Naive Realism. And if they disagree with us, they obviously aren’t seeing clearly. We assume that other reasonable people would see things the same way we do. We figure he must be uninformed, irrational or simply biased. My point is that when someone does not agree with our views or observations, we jump to the conclusion that the other person is wrong. Do you see the old woman now? It is important that you see her before you continue. Study this third image and then look again at the second picture above. Since we don’t have the luxury of face to face discussion, please scroll down a bit to the third picture I have included here. Maybe we could use a pencil to trace the facial features. You could describe what you see, and I could point out to you what I see. If we were sitting face to face, we could discuss the picture. Can you see the old woman? Keep trying if you cannot.

“How can you mistake an attractive young woman for an old lady? You should get your eyes checked.”, you might want to say.īut I insist that you look at the picture again. You might guess that she is about 25 years old and fashionable. In fact, the second image looks like a lower resolution version of the first image.īut what if I claim that this picture is of a woman in her 60’s or 70’s who looks sad, has a huge nose, and is certainly not a model? She is someone you probably would help cross the street. You probably would describe this second woman as beautiful as the first one. What do you see now? Another woman? What does she look like? How old do you think she is? What is she wearing? In what kind of roles do you see her? Now I ask you to take your eyes off her and focus on the second picture below – Image-2 (Source: The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey) She seems to have high cheekbones, long eyelashes, and a pointy nose. You may notice that she is wearing a necklace. You’d probably see a woman who is looking away from you. Image-1 (Source: The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey) Take a few seconds and stare at the picture below. Let me start by inviting you to have an intellectual and emotional experience.
