Remember when your friend was trying to convince you not to do that thing, cause they had a bad experience with it, but the data you’ve seen says otherwise. Should you go with your friend’s advice, or go with the data? Wouldn’t it be easier if we already knew the outcome? Unfortunately, we do not have those abilities. Listen to our conversation as to how we each deal with this differently.

Topic - Data vs Anectodes
Scenario - Scale from 1-100.
State your position. At the end we come back and see if the needle moved at all.
Scenario 1
You’re about to have a procedure, a close and trusted friend says he had a terrible experience with it, but the data and your doctor says the data shows it’s safe. On a scale of 1-100, what would you normally side with, 1 your friend’s anecdote, or 100 the data.
Jose - 95/95
Sal - 90/85
Vero -90/90
Now your friend is having a different procedure done that you have had. You had a good experience. The data is now showing that there may be unforseen side effects. You still have not experienced any side effects. On a scale of 1-100, 1 should they listen to you, or 100 to the data.
