If you don't have opportunity to learn anything, learn at least, the cognitive psychology

Cognitive psychology is a branch of psychology that focuses on the study of mental processes such as perception, attention, memory, language, problem-solving, and decision-making. 

It explores how people acquire, store, process, and use information in their minds to understand and interact with the world around them. 

Cognitive psychologists use scientific methods to investigate these mental processes and gain insights into human thinking and behavior.

Cognitive psychology has several practical applications in various fields. Some of its key uses include:

1. Education: Cognitive psychology principles are used to develop effective teaching methods, instructional materials, and strategies to enhance learning and memory retention in students.

2. Clinical Psychology: Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), a widely used approach in clinical psychology, is based on cognitive psychology principles. It helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors to treat conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

3. Human-Computer Interaction (HCI): Cognitive psychology informs the design of user-friendly interfaces and technology that are easy for people to understand and use effectively.

4. Marketing and Advertising: Understanding cognitive processes helps marketers create persuasive messages and advertisements that appeal to consumers' thoughts and emotions.

5. Neuropsychology: Cognitive psychology is applied in the assessment and rehabilitation of individuals with brain injuries or cognitive impairments, helping them regain cognitive functions.

6. Sports Psychology: Athletes use cognitive strategies to enhance their performance, such as visualization and goal-setting techniques.

7. Ergonomics: Cognitive principles are used to design workplaces, products, and systems that optimize human performance and reduce cognitive strain.

8. Forensic Psychology: Cognitive psychology aids in understanding witness testimonies, memory reliability, and decision-making processes in legal contexts.

9. Artificial Intelligence (AI): Cognitive psychology informs the development of AI systems that can mimic human thought processes, such as natural language understanding and problem-solving.

10. Research and Development: Cognitive psychology research contributes to a better understanding of human cognition, which can lead to innovations in various fields.

Cognitive psychology plays a crucial role in improving education, mental health treatment, technology design, marketing strategies, and many other aspects of our daily lives by applying insights into how people think and process information.

Is Liberalism under attack?

I believe the answer may be yes. It's yes because two powerful states in Asia: China and Russia have consolidated authoritarian regime, that the end points may not be visible soon.  These two forces are working tirelessly to globalize oligarchy and authoritarianism. Their gospels has been noised abroad. Their influences influences have been displayed in some nations (with pseudo democracy) in the global south,  In Africa, liberal democracy have been badly weaken by the character of people in leadership: abuse of offices, stealing of public funds without questions and necessary punishments, plus rigging of presidential elections, leading to changing fortunes ànd quagmires. Beside, the curent hyper-inflation in Nigeria is blamed on the recent resurgence of Adams Smith and liberal economics doctrines (and partly by loyalty to Washington consensus: policies and insititios designed by the US government to globalize capitalism and it's associated cultural systems).

Sweet Spot

How do you create a digital strategy that involves customers in an energized social community?  How do you create an engaged, active “go-to” website?   Prophet's David Aaaker says, You must change the orientation of marketing from selling the offering, the brand, and firm to becoming an active partner with a shared interest program around a customer’s “sweet spot.” A sweet spot reflects customers’ “thinking and doing” time, beliefs and values, activities and passions, possessions or places they treasure. Ideally, it would be a part of, if not central to, their self-identity and lifestyle and reflect a higher-order value proposition, much beyond the benefits provided by the offering. To illustrate, Pampers went beyond diapers by creating the Pampers Village community that provides a “go to” place for all issues relating to babies and child care.
