The Tetris Effect (EP. 117)
Have you ever played a video game so much that you started seeing it in your dreams? That’s the idea behind the Tetris Effect, a fascinating phenomenon where repeated experiences begin to influence how we think and perceive the world. In this episode, we explore the surprising history of Tetris, how a simple puzzle game became a worldwide sensation, and why our brains are constantly searching for patterns.
But the Tetris Effect extends far beyond video games. From everyday habits to the way we interpret financial markets, what we repeatedly focus on can shape what we notice and how we make decisions. We discuss the power of repetition, the danger of finding patterns where none exist, and why being mindful of what captures our attention may be more important than we realize.
