When faced with choices, we often fall prey To cognitive biases that can lead us astray; We’re overconfident, or we’re too dismissive, And end up making suboptimal decisions.
If we’re to make the best choices we can; By being mindful of the way we think, We can avoid these pitfalls and make better plans.
In life, there will be many grieving times; But if we keep our wits about us, we’ll find That we can mourn our losses and still move on, Toward the bright tomorrow that lies ahead.
Rationality can help us through the dark; It is a lamps that guides us on our way. When life is hard, and times are tough, Remember, reason is here to stay.
There is great power in a clear mind. When faced with loss, we must be strong, And find a way to keep on shining.
Rose-colored glasses may give way to pain; But rationality can light the way. In the dark night of the soul, Reason will help us find our way.
Light a candle in the darkest of times, And let rationality blaze a trail. When all we see is darkness and despair, Clear thinking can help us find our way.

When faced with choices, we often fall prey
To cognitive biases that can lead us astray;
We’re overconfident, or we’re too dismissive,
And end up making suboptimal decisions.
If we’re to make the best choices we can;
By being mindful of the way we think,
We can avoid these pitfalls and make better plans.
In life, there will be many grieving times;
But if we keep our wits about us, we’ll find
That we can mourn our losses and still move on,
Toward the bright tomorrow that lies ahead.
Rationality can help us through the dark;
It is a lamps that guides us on our way.
When life is hard, and times are tough,
Remember, reason is here to stay.
There is great power in a clear mind.
When faced with loss, we must be strong,
And find a way to keep on shining.
Rose-colored glasses may give way to pain;
But rationality can light the way.
In the dark night of the soul,
Reason will help us find our way.
Light a candle in the darkest of times,
And let rationality blaze a trail.
When all we see is darkness and despair,
Clear thinking can help us find our way.
