Reference #17: What Got You Here Won't Get You There

Cognitive dissonance is the psychological phenomenon wherein we are less likely to believe statements and opinions that conflict with our existing beliefs. The more strongly held these beliefs, the more strongly we oppose conflicting inputs.

This leads to a disconnect — or dissonance — between our minds and reality.
