The Winning Hand: Unpacking 'The Biggest Bluff' by Maria Konnikova
“How we frame something affects not just our thinking but our emotional state. It may seem a small deal, but the words we select—the ones we filter out and the ones we eventually choose to put forward—are a mirror to our thinking.

Have a wonderful week ahead.
