You’re right, this is going to take some time. I do think that introspection is hard, but even after reading books like Timothy Wilson’s “Strangers to Ourselves”, I find that these contrived experimental examples of people not knowing why they chose something to not be very helpful/informative when I’m trying to make everyday decisions. this comment asks the “so what?” question. How are we going to use this information about our lack of introspective power?
EDIT: I just realized that you were the one who made the comment I just linked to.
