Interesting, insightful lecture! But very poor video taking - Dr Konnikova, no doubt went through a lot of trouble to add the slides to her lecture and the videographer was not savvy enough to capture the slides that she's directing our attention to. If anyone else has the lecture with the slides please add link.
Ok, i realy need to ask u, i'm reading the book (page 92) and actually i haven't learn anything related deduction or thing like that, just some teories and quotes about the book and different psychologist. When the book starts teaching skills, or how to develop yout abilities?
Ant Ior Hang on, this will be long. Well actually I read it a while ago so I cannot specifically tell where it begins to teach the ''important stuff'' and now the deduction has become sorta like second nature for me (which does not mean it was easy) and believe with steady practice, it will work. The way this book presents the advice, in my opinion, is as if you have to realize and adapt the content to yourself rather than telling you ''do this or do that''. She teaches you the whole deduction process from zero, and in order, that is: attention (learn to always be in the present moment), set a goal in your mind (e.g. ''why did my friend was late for work, if he is always on time''?) observation (take on whatever details important for what you want to know, because for example, is not important to look at your friend's hair gel if you want to know why he is late), theorize (from those facts you know are important, bring as much theories as possible) and finally come up with the most logical explanation possible following the former steps, or as Sherlock himself said, ''when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, although unlikely, must be the truth.''.
WSBZ01 even me man this book is the best!! have you read the definitive book of body language and thinking, fast and slow? these books are also good to be a mentalist or Holmes (whatever you want to be called)
I have the book myself too, I really learned a lot with it and love it. Most of the important theory and terms I have it implanted in my head haha. All I need is to practice a lot more. Btw very cool to know people who also have read the book and love this.
In this book, Maria unpacked the mental strategies that lead to clearer thinking and deeper insights. She draws on 21st-century neuroscience and psychology to “illuminate Holmes’ most fascinating cases.” She writes at length on the scientific method of the mind, the brain attic, the art of observation, imagination, deduction and the importance of self-knowledge. For me, this book is not easy to read (I didn’t read this book thru like most of my other books. I paused for about 3 months) but since my fascinated for Sherlock Holmes, fictional character created by Author Conan Doyle, is greater than the task of finishing this book, I finally did it. I read 'The Power of Habit' by Charles Duhigg and some parts of Daniel Kahneman’s 'Thinking, Fast and Slow' before and I found these books are almost similar to ‘Mastermind’ (or ‘Mastermind’ is actually similar with these other books). Some readers fairly commented that this book would be much better if she used a real character instead of a fictional character. I agree and disagree. I refuse to comment further. I suggest you watch Konnikova’s talks first on TH-cam :) To read my review & short summary on Maria Konnikova's Mastermind: How to Think Like Sherlock Holmes (2013), CLICK HERE: www.richardangelus.me/2018/08/mastermind-how-to-think-like-sherlock.html?m=1
before I read this book, I have applied it, this book complements the answer I did, the attic is just a term, you can imagine any room, hotel, house. I imagine Dream house is in my head and it functions as my brain, I have a room, a library, whatever I want to have, I store every information and prepare a special room, when I am in university, I read a book for every study I take, and I always prepare a special room in my dream house, in the real world I read a book and in my imagination I'm sitting in that room while writing what I read, after I finished I closed the book in detail, and got out of the dream house, then I realized and was active In the real world, it seems impossible, when I take an exam, I have information in my head that I put in detail, and it answers my questions during the exam, and I pass with the best marks.
She's very attractive, some people say she's socially awkward but I think it's kind of... interesting lol. A good speaker I think she does an pretty good job though her speaking range and power isn't that strong as others, agreed. All in all a smart woman
Would it have killed the cameraman to pan it back so we can see the slides and images?? And judging by everyone's comments, I'm glas to know that I wasn't the only one to come up with an eagle ;)
It was easy to tell how she did it. If u multiply a number by 9 the sum of the two letter digit will always be nine therefore subtracting 5 will get 4. This number corresponds with d in the alphabet. Most country’s that start with d have e as the second letter. This can make clear that most people will pick elephant.
My first thought was elephant, but I changed it to eel before Maria revealed the picture. I wonder how many chose Djibouti instead of Denmark and picked a Jaguar. She is my hero
So something about the mind attic that she didn't fully get into. You can take the information almost literally by imagining a home, hotel, attic, room, whatever and filling it with items that stand for things you want to remember. Here's my process: 1) I meditate for an amount of time that will allow me to focus fully on my thoughts 2) then imagine a home (it's the same home every time, but I don't want to overly describe everything for you guys) 3) I imagine myself walking into this home 4) immediately I'm greeted by a hallway with doors on each side. each door represents a different area of study. I have a door that looks like a galaxy for cosmology, I have a fine wooded door with a brass knob for history, I have a door that has Dr. [my name] on a plaque for a psychology room, etc.. 5) inside every room I have furniture and little knick knacks that I interact with and continue to build the story behind them. For example, I have a night stand in my psychology room that has different action figures being subjected to smoke. This reminds me of the psychology of crowd behavior and each action figure has a story (scholarly article) tied to it. This helps me practice what I know and recall information faster. 6) when I'm done visiting the rooms I imagine myself leaving then I wake up from my meditation. Do this once a day and you'll be able to have a tool for storing information. I have a few friends that do this too and they're working on their second and third homes. It's not only useful, but if you have a strong enough imagination it becomes pretty fun going into this house that becomes to feel so real. I hope this helps someone. If someone has anything to add do it!
I think there is a little contradiction between the multitasking fact and the pipe mediation. First she said, don't be multitasking focus on the thing you're doing so you learn from the moment and be happier and the she said when your doing something your doing well as a routine then you can let your mind expand in that time and think about everything you like. It would be contra productive to the fact she told first.
When he was " piping " his default mode network was on . I e piping was almost an unconscious activity & hence was focussed on thinking & not multitasking
It’s so irritating that these camera people can’t show the onscreen slide presentations accompanying the talk. I used to operate a one man control room as student, while in university, where we would broadcast our engineering lectures remotely. I had two remote controlled cameras, aimed at the professor and the board. I always made sure that everything was viewable. How did I do that? By doing my job, being present and remembering that my responsibility was to the remote viewers. It’s not difficult, it just means not being lazy and doing the job I was hired to do.
Deeply insight video, but I agree that the cameraman did a very poor job with the slides. Though if he was distracted by her angelic beauty, I don't blame him. I just spent the last hour looking into the eyes of heaven, and I deduce that she is married (judging from the ring that gleamed off artificial lighting), very intelligent and went to college, well-rehearsed in public speaking (there were no ummms in her speech), a type A personality, came from a middle-class family (perhaps the East Coast? Judging from her refined character and speech?) and goes the extra mile. I found the way she crinkles her nose when she laughs very cute. She definitely wanted to do well at this presentation. For example, she decked herself out with accessories on her wrist, neck and ears. However, I found the earrings a particularly peculiar choice considering that her hair covers her ears most of the time. It was no easy feat discovering if this earth angel wore earrings, but after spending the greater part of the video watching closely, I realized that she had chosen to wear them. Why? Was it conscious or unconscious decision? Contrary to my hypothesis, however, when you consider the fact that she wears a necklace and a silver wristwatch and that she is going to give a presentation, it is not surprising that she made this choice. How are the earrings relevant? I think it says something about her character. That Maria Konnikova-a human diamond-lucky man whoever married her-cared about this presentation and likely puts forth extra effort in the things she does. She sounds like a solid author that I look forward to visiting in the future.
Matt Gallus I'd say she's also used to sitting at a computer quite often (not sure if for her job or if she has a blog or something) from her posture. She hasn't had a haircut in a while (not sure how that ties into anything...). I also agree with what you said about her caring about the presentation--she was very enthusiastic and gesticulated with her hands a lot. I think what you said about the earrings was quite interesting.
Matt Gallus your earing thing is quite interesting but I think you're wrong about her being regular public speaker as her body posture says otherwise though it might be due to spending long time on computer as she is author I believe it's the otherwise as she keeps tilting her head in right side and expressions are one of those socially awkward people. And when she talked about how her father used to read her Sherlock when she opened that subject which made her legs move to make a cross which indicates more about how she is socially awkward and hence not a regular at public speeches. But it's just my guess feel free to correct me.
The Google effect happened to me with my lessons at school in the exams I remember my copy book: its color, its details, the page, and the exact number of lines written in it but not the information I want to remember
31:55 "....this is quite the 3 pipe problem....." Made me wonder what do today's brainy detectives do. I think crime scene inspection, as soon as possible, would ADD to the overall crime solution success, doesn't it? Both, contemplation "mindfulness" (3 pipe long) time, PLUS crime scene investigation, I concluded a modern detective who is a public servant part of a police force will obviously follow today's evolved detective procedures. But in their own detective lives, I do think this "mindfulness" (3 pipe) time for a detective, also would be a great piece of advice. But, as a regular citizen, how to amp up everyone's brain who is in a public service job being paid to do public service jobs, I applaud all help to help our "government" workers and paid city workers who do service to us all! Great talk.
+Chuck Beatty "....3 pipe problem....." 32:00 Ought our police stations have a ".....3 pipe....." room for our detectives to consciously, with our citizen's support, have as their jobs ad detectives, have a 3 PIPE ROOM to go to, and have their time to think out the crime problems they face for us!
+Chuck Beatty For Sherlock, like myself, opiates and their like serve multiple purposes. In this case, it allows us to think esoterically (in an abstract manner that would be impossible sober) and approach the problem from angles unconsidered. It also helps us relax, which is normally IMPOSSIBLE. Imagine having to analyze everything. It's not something Sherlock turns on... it's something he desperately tries to turn off... and is only successful through drugs.
+Wesley Matulis BTW, I'm recovering and not supporting drug use... Sir Arthur Conan Doyle lived in a different time and place where it was acceptable to do drugs, as long as it was behind closed doors and didn't affect other people. Actually, that was the Victorian attitude on most things.
@@ainharavivarrojas3016 she's sexualizing herself by the choice of dress, posture, and not wearing a bra knowing the material would tickle her in interesting places... :)
Sorry I speak Spanish and it's a little difficult to me to understand sometimes English, I did not understand very good the thing about multitasking, the multitasking is bad?
Wow... I got Denmark and elephant. This was very entertaining and informative. The cameraman needs to find a novel profession because he partially ruined a epic lecture. Being observant is a major key😉
If an event is not likely at all, pairing it with a second event won’t make it more likely Think of multiplying 0 (which is the probability of event 1) times probability of event 2.
I couldn't think of a country beginning with D, not in the English language off the top of my head, so I said Deutschland, not Denmark, and the second letter is E, which is for Elephant too.....I think if you multiply *any* single digit number by nine, the digits will add up to nine? So if you subtract five you will always get four, and D is the fourth letter of the alphabet. I gave up listening to this video at 3 minutes and 23 seconds in. I don't mind silly games as an opener, but something with a bit more wow factor than that please, that fell flat because I was taught the magic of the nine times table when I was about five years old.
You frame people's responses to each respective set of options for Bill and Linda by your tone of voice when introducing option 1 and then saying "Is it likely, no...probably not." I read "Thinking Fast and Slow" and read/underwent the experiment. But the book didn't impart a prejudicial tone of voice; and I changed my answer half way through the first example. I recommend that you have a neutral tone of voice and don't tell them what to think afterwards. Not an important note honestly; it was just annoying.
Before I even watch this, let me comment about this idea of a mind attic, and other tools we use. I read a lot of books, and I see tons of different authors talk about similar ideas but describe them differently, using different jargon. This is inefficient, and we need standards. Is there a place where all of these ideas and information are compiled so that I'm not wasting my resources and memory inter-linking related ideas? Our minds are limited, and we need to eject extraneous information so that we aren't spinning our wheels, so that we can actually put these ideas to use without the information overload of this era. I already see this happening all over the place. Lots of effort has been put in over the years by websites on the internet to help streamline information so that it's not so disjointed. I guess ideas that are a bit more innovative just need some time to be integrated. K now I'll watch the video. L.
+arande3 Haha it's funny now that I've watched it, the actual idea is similar to what I'm saying, but it's focused on the self. So instead of changing our environment, it's more about how we choose to perceive our environment. Both approaches are important and should be utilized.
That wasn't mind reading... she led us to think that way the moment she asked to multiply by 9 she knew the total was 9 .. once she knows the total everything was cakewalk... leading to asking a country name beginning with d that's Denmark and then elephant ...phew !!

This is such a great video. I like the mindfulness meditation at 14:10. I try to meditate every day, but the breathe focus is very helpful.
8 years man how is life
9 years how is life

Most country’s that start with d have e as the second letter. This can make clear that most people will pick elephant.
i love this kind of magic...great smarts and superb intuition..
dont want to ruin her trick but any number between 1-10 *9 results in a number which letters add up to 9
Yeah, it was pretty easy to figure out but a nice trick nonetheless.
I figured that too. Simple maths.
One of the grand things about the number 9!
It was done on purpose, is part of the trick. The majority of people don't realize that, and this is true for a lot of mental tricks.
I think the trick was knowing that Denmark would be country chosen and the e animal that would be chosen would be an elephant. 😊
My first thought was elephant, but I changed it to eel before Maria revealed the picture. I wonder how many chose Djibouti instead of Denmark and picked a Jaguar. She is my hero

Why is B less likely because it includes A. Why can't B include A, what is the logic for this?

I don't mind silly games as an opener, but something with a bit more wow factor than that please, that fell flat because I was taught the magic of the nine times table when I was about five years old.
there's an idea festival. cool
Subtitles in Portuguese PLEASE
Tens que aprender o inglés
Amazing camera man, couldn't make it worse
love it very interesting
She is so cute and smart :D
Damnit even skimming random videos at 3:51 AM can't save me from the horrid beast that is MATH!!
😂😂😂
You frame people's responses to each respective set of options for Bill and Linda by your tone of voice when introducing option 1 and then saying "Is it likely, no...probably not." I read "Thinking Fast and Slow" and read/underwent the experiment. But the book didn't impart a prejudicial tone of voice; and I changed my answer half way through the first example. I recommend that you have a neutral tone of voice and don't tell them what to think afterwards. Not an important note honestly; it was just annoying.
Mine was Djibouti and Jackal....
am I the only one who had Jaguar in mind? after letter J, second letter of the country Djibouti? fuck me
Very insightful speech only to be ruined by poor cameraman workmanship. Dreadful. But more of this Holmes technique please.
Am I the only one who though of Djibouti and Jaguar?
I will now claim to also be able to tell what somebody is like..
Before I even watch this, let me comment about this idea of a mind attic, and other tools we use.
I read a lot of books, and I see tons of different authors talk about similar ideas but describe them differently, using different jargon. This is inefficient, and we need standards. Is there a place where all of these ideas and information are compiled so that I'm not wasting my resources and memory inter-linking related ideas? Our minds are limited, and we need to eject extraneous information so that we aren't spinning our wheels, so that we can actually put these ideas to use without the information overload of this era.
I already see this happening all over the place. Lots of effort has been put in over the years by websites on the internet to help streamline information so that it's not so disjointed. I guess ideas that are a bit more innovative just need some time to be integrated.
K now I'll watch the video. L.
+arande3 Haha it's funny now that I've watched it, the actual idea is similar to what I'm saying, but it's focused on the self. So instead of changing our environment, it's more about how we choose to perceive our environment. Both approaches are important and should be utilized.
For the first one I ended up with “Oister”😂
The camera man must have been asleep during the slides.
I was thinking of an emu, Unfortunately.
Watson isn't *from* Afghanistan tho is he
Conjunction Fallacy is the worst thing the brain can do to us, or is it the best?
#sherlockholmesistoogood
I thought of an eagle not an elephant :(
I thought of an octopus, Dominican Republic?
Denmark, eagle
My animal was a jaguar, since the country I thought of was Djibouti.
@@andreamortimer2610 lol same
it is easy to just speak. if she claims such a thing why doesn't she observe someone as a proof.
kaveh sadd she applies it to her work in researching
Denmark, Emu...
She's hot!
You learnt something at least.
That wasn't mind reading... she led us to think that way the moment she asked to multiply by 9 she knew the total was 9 .. once she knows the total everything was cakewalk... leading to asking a country name beginning with d that's Denmark and then elephant ...phew !!
She explains that at the end of the presentation.
My animal was an echidna.
4, 4x9 = 36, 3+6=9, 9-5=4, D, Dominican Republic, Second Letter is O, Owl and I had Pictured a WHITE OWL(Thanks to Harry Potter).
Didn't work...i came up with 175.
This cameraman is lazy af
Ikr, but so r we with our text language Lol
Get rekt m8 😂
I think he did it on purpose to keep the camera focused on the beautiful lady Konnikova. Probably he as well was mesmerized by her.
😨😦😮she just read my mind
Good content. Cameraman is terrible. As a presenter she might also work on her breathing. Her voice lacks presence and is irritating :/
Wtf i got elephant!
i did
3
3x9=27
2+7=9
9-3=4
4=d
d=Dominican replublic
iguana
greenish-blue
This woman needs public speaking classes. She scrapes the bottom of her vocal range every time she speaks. I find it very distracting.
Are you serious? I love her voice! I was just thinking about how I want to talk more like her.
This is one sharp chick.
I got eagle, not elephant.
Najey Rifai it doesn't matter
TechLogic99 It matters to me! Okay?!
That's interesting, why does it matter to you?
TechLogic99 Because I was told something that was wrong, under the assumption it was right.
+Najey Rifai But you got Denmark right?
Ahhhh...i know this trick😂
Ostrich
I mean I got an otter but ok
Dominican Republic -> otter

how does that stupid mental magic trick and any of the bullshit after had anything to do with Sherlock Holmes and deduction?
He can do it because he is a fictional character.
she lost me at the denmark elephant bs
why bother to where a bra for public presentation.
+MrShaggyww Why bother to learn how to use "wear" or where"....
+MrShaggyww I'm not complaining.
I applaud her decision to forego it.
Also, it's 9 AM and this is probably the best way to keep people to attention.
FHRITP
Am I the only one who noticed she's not wearing a bra?
😜
