Summary of Joel Mark Witt & Antonia Dodge's Personality Hacker

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview: #1 Your personality is a type of technology that can be upgraded.

It is more tied to your experience of reality than any other single influence, making it both familiar and inscrutable.

When you look at a piece of technology, like your smartphone, you experience it as separate from yourself.#2 The more you narrow your focus on the things that attract you and provide you with better experiences, the more you will evaluate what enters your awareness based on how worthy it is.

Information in this sense also includes aspects of you - your behavior, beliefs, mental scripts, and models of life.#3 The goal of these maps is to help you understand yourself and how you perceive reality.

They are not reality, but they are a representation of reality that is inaccurate enough to be useful.#4 The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is a test that determines which cognitive functions an individual is predisposed to use.

It is rarely used to identify a person's cognitive functions, but it is being used more online to identify cognitive functions.
