Let's shed light on how we understand real-world experience.

If we make major life choices, choices that can even change who we will become, in the way we naturally and intuitively want to—by considering what we care about, and what our future selves will be like if we choose to have the experience—we only learn what we really need to know after we have already committed ourselves, according to Laurie Paul. One might think that some decisions—like whether or not to have a child, or whether or not to start a business—can so profoundly transform our lives that we cannot possibly know what the outcome will be like until it actually happens. Are these the kind of decisions in which our regular approach to decision-making becomes useless? Can life-changing decisions ever be made rationally? If not, can we still make good choices? Or are all we really doing is taking blind leaps of faith?
