Imposter Syndrome

Definition

Imposter syndrome, also known as the impostor phenomenon or impostorism, is a psychological experience characterized by persistent feelings of self-doubt, inadequacy, and insecurity despite external evidence of success. People experiencing it often believe they are frauds or phonies who have somehow fooled others into thinking they are competent or deserving of their achievements.

Individual Process Work

Definition

In the context of Andrew Grove's book "High Output Management", Individual Process Work refers to the core tasks that an individual is responsible for and produces mostly through their own direct efforts.

Information Diffusion

Definition

Information diffusion refers to the process by which information spreads from one individual or group to another. It's like a ripple effect, starting with a single source and expanding outwards as people share the information with others

Innumeracy

Definition

Innumeracy refers to the lack of understanding or proficiency in basic mathematical concepts and skills. It's essentially the opposite of numeracy, which signifies competence in dealing with numbers and calculations. While innumeracy doesn't necessarily mean someone can't count or perform basic arithmetic, it implies difficulty applying these skills to everyday situations, making informed decisions, or understanding numerical information presented in various forms.

Insight

Definition

Insight refers to a sudden, clear understanding of something complex or previously hidden. It's more than just acquiring information; it involves a shift in perspective or a breakthrough realization.

Internal Awareness

Definition

Internal awareness, within the realm of psychology, refers to the ability to be consciously aware of your own internal states. This encompasses a broad range of aspects, including: your thoughts, your feelings and emotions, your bodily sensations, and your motivations and desires: 

Internal Locus Of Control Mindset

Definition

An internal locus of control is a psychological concept referring to the belief that your outcomes in life are primarily determined by your own actions, choices, and efforts. People with a strong internal locus of control feel a sense of agency and control over their circumstances.

Intrinsic Load

Definition

Intrinsic load refers to the inherent difficulty of understanding and processing new information, regardless of how it's presented. It's the mental effort required to grasp the concepts themselves, like the inherent complexity of the topic or the amount of new information being introduced. 

Inversion

Definition

Inversion thinking is a mental model where you flip a problem on its head. Instead of directly focusing on how to achieve a goal, you start by intensely considering how to actively avoid it or achieve the opposite outcome.

Irrational fears

Definition

Irrational fears, also known as phobias, are intense and persistent fears of objects or situations that pose little or no actual threat. These fears can significantly impact daily life, causing anxiety, distress, and avoidance behaviors. While everyone experiences fear from time to time, irrational fears differ in their intensity, duration, and level of interference with daily life.
