Today, I want to talk about a bias that affects how we think about success. It’s called survivorship bias, and it might be the reason you’re feeling discouraged, unmotivated, or frustrated with your English.
We’ll look at what survivorship bias really is, explore some famous examples from history and business, and then dive into how it appears in the world of language learning.
Most importantly, I’ll give you practical advice to avoid this trap and keep moving forward with confidence.
