About This Quote

we may experience an absolute positive change and do the undone if we shift our thoughts from descriptive thinking to prescriptive thinking. Descriptive thinking is what we do all day long, it is how we think about things. It is how we think about our own lives as well as the lives of those around us. There are benefits of descriptive thinking.

In fact, it can be a very useful way of organizing and understanding information. However, it also tends to lead us to make overgeneralizations that overgeneralize on a subject matter. It can make us lazy and complacent because we assume that nice things will happen to us and bad things won't happen to us because they don't fit our generalizations.

Descriptive thinking can make us feel good about ourselves but it tends to lead to a delusion of security where we assume that the world will be around for a long time without any major changes taking place.
