We’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it? In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir , Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times . Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary (InnSæi: The Power of Intuition), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing. Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it ✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle ✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing ✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making ✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power) Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

The more the merrier right? The more the better! Well, not in product design, as far as feature addition is concerned. It is not worthwhile to add features just because adding them is convenient for the team, or because internal stakeholders want some feature in there - all about this and more in this episode on Feature Creep - based on an excerpt from the Universal Principles of Design.

All decisions in life can be summarised into a flowchart-like system. If you ask a few questions in succession, based on the “yes” and “no” answers that you receive, you’ll be able to make an educated and well-thought out decision, that not only doesn’t disregard associated risks, but also takes very less time - all about it in this episode - based on an excerpt from The Decision Book, by Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschäppeler.

In the words of Gretchen Rubin, "If you're not failing, you're not trying hard enough." Similarly, if you have no clue about your strengths, your weaknesses, your opportunities, or your threats, you'd be ill-positioned in not only all events concerning your professional life, but also the more vital, personal one.

We all know speed equals distance by time. But when a sniper calculates the speed of a bullet, they take into account wind speed, temperature, altitude, angle of the shot, and sometimes even, the rotation of the earth! We don't need to know all these for a paintball fight, but in reality, this process - like almost all other processes around us - becomes a black box, and we have to have faith in the sniper, than to have knowledge about the sniping.

"It's not for you" - we are clearly not supposed to say that to anyone. But if you want to succeed, you must. Because in doing so, not only are your showing immense respect for those people who have been the target recipients of your product, but also those who have not - because then clearly you do not wish to waste their time convincing them that it is indeed for them.

"The internet is the world's largest library. It's just that all the books are on the floor." At first glance, you'd think the best-selling 20% of the products on sale in the internet are the ones that generate 80% of the revenue.

From employees in development, to developed employees, the path is not linear. More often than not, the level of expertise increases. But, there occur very high fluctuations in the employee morale and motivation. And it's at these very junctures, that leadership is needed.

A dictatorship is not always wrong. Similarly, a democratic path is not always the best to pursue. In design processes, likewise, the sole-designer-says-the-final-word way is not always the best idea. Similarly, clouding a project with stakeholder buy-in, is sometimes not the correct way to go.

Our minds work in funny ways. Many of us have high morals, we live up to strong beliefs. Yet, if we dig deep, we'd probably find that many of our actions are in stark contrast to what we believe in. Even though we know being a couch-potato is wrong, many of us still become one. This is where a guilty feeling creeps in - and we try to self-justify. It's hard to change our behaviours, but easier to tweak our beliefs into becoming consistent with our immoral actions - which in turn will get us towards no better place in life. All this and more in this episode about cognitive dissonance, based on an excerpt from The Decision Book, by Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschäppeler.

How would you save a document in a word processor? Novice users would go to the Menu bar, click on the 'File' option, go down the drop-down menu, and click on 'Save'. More proficient users would instead just hit Control+S or Command+S on the keyboard, and be done with the exact same job. Both methods allow you to reach the same goal, but one favours simplicity and a structured path, while the other favours efficiency and gives you more control over the tool.

From its birth in 1996 by Dr. Dan Herman till today, there's very few people who don't know about FOMO. Yet there's very few people who can overcome it, more few who know how it's leveraged, and only about a handful of people know how they can leverage it in a proper and ethical way to make this world a better place for everyone to live in. In the end, it's all about perspective, and living up to your morals.

A pointed kettle and a round kettle are placed on the kitchen counter. They are grey in colour, of the same height and width and breadth. They have the same metallic glossy finish, and the same black handle. The handle on the pointed one is at a sharp right angle, and it's a straight piece of metal. The handle on the round one, is a curved one, made of rubber. Which one would your brain prefer? All of this and more in this episode, based on an excerpt from the Universal Principles of Design.

Risk is what remains after we think we've thought of everything - it pays to be able to brainstorm all kinds of risks.

Why do people keep wearing masks the wrong way all the time - some wear it on their chin, some on their neck, and some dangle it from one ear. Some even cover just the lips and keep their nose poking out. Well, there's no constraint on these activities of any kind. Basically, if you can think about any oddly creative way to use a product, rest assured that unless you limit those unintended actions, they will be done. You need to have a method of limiting the possible actions that can be performed on a system. Well, constraints to the rescue! - based on an excerpt from the Universal Principles of Design.

To indicate and reinforce the relatedness of elements, or to indicate and reinforce the differences among elements, you would need similarity, and the lack of similarity respectively. And to enable people to efficiently transfer knowledge to new contexts, learn new things quickly, and focus attention on the relevant aspects of a task, you would need consistency.

"Even if it's true that the average man seems most comfortable with the commonplace and familiar, it is equally true that catering to bad taste, which we so readily attribute to the average reader, merely perpetuates that mediocrity and denies the reader one of the most easily accessible means for aesthetic development and eventual enjoyment" - read that again, and you'll understand the depth of wisdom from which it has been spoken.

It is hard to perfectly understand all facets of our own personality. But, we can become aware about those faces of our personalities that we portray to the outside world. But, how?

Debates and design research require adequate data, most definitely, but what data we choose to present, and what we ignore, is up to us. And that is where the poison of the confirmation bias creeps in. It is worthwhile to remember that we often favour information that confirms a pre-conjured belief which we have high emotional investments in, and that we often ignore and try to actively stamp out information that contradicts us. This is wrong. This needs an antidote – all this and more in this episode, based on an excerpt from the Universal Principles of Design.

You might feel you're a hardworking person who has achieved a lot owing to all the sacrifices you've done in life. A friend might see you as a lazy person, who gets really lucky when it comes to achievements. This isn't wrong to have. But, it's a mistake if you did not try to find out all perspectives of yourself. Only then could you understand your behavioural traits and ingrained tendencies.

In video games, simplifying playability by making it clear who is being controlled and how to control them is perhaps the most important - and this is done often by making the names and controller icons move with the players - resulting in the viewers perceiving those otherwise separate entities as a group.

We need to make purchase decisions almost every day of our life - but they need not be nerve-wracking, no matter how big the purchase is. Establish a research strategy and stick to it, lower your expectations from the fancy purchase you're about to make, don't worry yourself to hypertension, and in the end, let somebody else decide for you.

There is a very prominent and strong relationship between the perceived height of a ceiling, and cognition. Abstract thinking and creativity do not generally flourish in the same working environments as those that promote concrete, focused and detail-oriented thinking.

Decision-making is not something to be taken lightly, especially at the initital stages of a process. Also, it is not something that only logic and rationale can decipher and process. The main idea is to sometimes switch off the rational side of the brain, and get in touch directly with a somewhat higher power - our intuition. After all, intuition is knowledge that we feel but cannot really put to words. All this and more in this episode, based on an excerpt from The Decision Book by Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschäppeler.

The more people are exposed to a stimulus, the stronger their feeling associated with it. If the stimulus is neutral or a positive one, people tend to like it more and more. But, if it's jarring and negative, people start to dislike it exponentially over time. Advertising and marketing campaigns use the classical conditioning principle and the mere-exposure effect over and over to enhance their credibility, and improve people's perceptions about them - all this and more in this episode, based on an excerpt, from the Universal Principles of Design.

Professional competence is not at all enough to be a good leader. Truly caring about those who have been entrusted to your care - is what it takes to become a good leader. And this way, if you put the interests of your people and your organisation, before your self-interests, you can never fail.

When someone tells you their phone number by calling out all ten digits without pausing, you would probably ask them to repeat. But, if they had called out the same phone number, in three blocks, even if the pace of calling out the digits remained the same, it would be much easier for you to retain that information, and recall it later on. Such is the power of chunking. It is simple, but, it can be misunderstood and is often misused in design. In this episode, you'll come to see the what's, the why's and the correct-how's of chunking in design - based on an excerpt from the Universal Principles of Design.

The paradox-of-choice exists in our day to day lives more than most of us can possible comprehend. At a supermarket, the greater the variety of jams, the lesser the chance that any of it will be sold. At a car dealership, the greater the variety of colours, the more frustrated the decision-making process will be. At a restaurant, the more the number of items on the menu, the longer time you'll take to order, getting you even more hungry, and over-ordering in the process. All of these are Choice Overloads, and we'll understand the concept in this episode, based on an excerpt from The Decision Book, by Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschäppeler.

First informally introduced by Steve Jobs, this principle says that quality of materials, precision fit, uniformity of finish, internal consistency, and marks of the maker or signatures - are prime indicators of craftsmanship. We all need to apply excellent design and development to all aspects of a product - by treating all invisible areas as visible - after all, light is the best disinfectant for shoddy craftsmanship.
