  • How often has DURATION NEGLECT happened with you?

    When people assess and experience they tend to ignore its length. People rate an experience based on 2 key things –

    1. Best or Worst Moment known as PEAK &
    2. How the experience ENDED

    This is frequently referred by psychologists as PEAK END rule and is a quirk of human psychology often referred to as DURATION NEGLECT.

  • What makes PRET A MANGER such an unique company?

    Pret A Manger employees are given the freedom to allow giving of freebies to customers whom them like thus bringing a sense of randomness in how they BREAK THE SCRIPT, surprise the customer and hence create MOMENTS of ELEVATION.

    Chip and Dan Heath make a mention of this unique strategy in their best seller, The Power of Moments and provide an illustrative example as to how to create a WOW moment.

  • Why RESEARCH says that PURPOSE TRUMPS PASSION?

    The insight has been adopted from Chip and Dan Heath’s best selling book The Power of Moments and illuminates us as to why research suggests that PURPOSE trumps PASSION.

    “The best advice is NOT to PURSUE your PASSION, it is PURSUE your PURPOSE. Even better try to combine both. PASSION is INDIVIDUALISTIC, it can energize us but can isolate us as well. By contrast PURPOSE is something PEOPLE can SHARE, it can KNIT GROUPS TOGETHER.”

  • How often do you experience “REMINISCENCE BUMP”?

    REMINISCENCE BUMP constitutes the 15 year period from age of 15 till the age of 30 wherein vivid memories tend to be drawn disproportionately since the period is the TIME OF FIRSTS in terms of experiences and hence is the driving factor for novelty.

    Chip and Dan Heath mention the same in their best seller named The Power of Moments.
