The Dunning-Kruger Effect
Bertrand Russell's insightful observation that "the whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are so sure of themselves, while wiser people are so full of doubt" sheds light on a fascinating psychological phenomenon known as the Dunning-Kruger Effect.

The Layers of Mind
Dr. Rebecca Harris sat in her plush office chair, her eyes fixed on the inkblot pattern projected on the screen ahead. To anyone else, it would have appeared as an ordinary Rorschach test, but she wasn't anyone else. She was an expert at decoding the intricate patterns of the human psyche, and as she looked into the inkblot, she was certain she saw faces—tormented, twisted faces that gazed back at her with malevolent intensity.

How To Make Friends With One Simple Thing
It seems that most of us want to make friends, but find it difficult, as revealed by a Pew Research Center study which found that 72% of adults say it is 'somewhat' or 'very important' to have close friends, but only 44% say it is easy to make new friends.
