One helpful tip per day:)

What is the curse of knowledge, and how should we deal with it? Anne-Laure Le Cunff offers her advice:

  1. The curse of knowledge refers to the cognitive gap between us and others—we assume others already understand certain things, leading to incorrect judgments.
  2. The curse of knowledge is actually very common, so the first step in dealing with it is to acknowledge its existence.
  3. To avoid the curse of knowledge, we can better understand our audience, use simplified language, provide more examples, show more, and interact more with the audience.
  4. On the other hand, these methods can also better encourage us to deepen our own understanding of these topics.

  4. 另一方面,这些也能更好地促进我们去深入了解这些事物。
