There is a mind bender called the Monty Hall Problem. You’re on a game show with a chance to win the grand prize behind one of three doors. You pick a door, and the host, Monty, reveals that one of the other doors has no prize. Now you face a choice: stick with your original door or switch to the other unopened door. What should you do? Switch! Why? When you made your first choice, you had a 1 in 3 chance of being right. But with the new information Monty gave you, the odds shift. Switching gives you a 2 in 3 chance of winning the prize. The takeaway? Don't be afraid to change your mind when presented with new information.
