首先先了解一下大腦是如何工作的(How the human mind works)
The brain relies on shortcuts to do a lot of its work. That means your mental processes are taking place outside of your awareness at most
time.

大腦的工作方式是我們今天 “有限理性”概念的前提。那什么是有限理性呢?
有限理性(經(jīng)濟學理論):有限理性是指介于完全理性和非完全理性之間的在一定限制下的理性。有限理性是為抓住問題的本質(zhì)而簡化決策變量的條件下表現(xiàn)出來的理性行為。有限理性(bounded rationality)的概念最初是阿羅提出的,他認為有限理性就是人的行為“即是有意識地理性的,但這種理性又是有限的”。1978年,赫伯特·西蒙(Herbert A.Simon, 1916—2001)因為“有限理性說”和“決策理論”獲得諾貝爾經(jīng)濟學獎。
Bounded rationality is the Nobel prize-winning idea: The human mind has limited storage resources, limited processing power, and as a result, it relies on shortcuts to do a lot of work.

在有限理性的基礎(chǔ)上衍生了“有限道德”, "有限道德“ 是一個抽象概念,我們可以從他的一個具體表現(xiàn) “無意識偏見 unconscious bias" 來理解。
Unconscious bias is one place where we see the effects of bounded ethicality. So unconscious bias refers to associations we have in our mind, the shortcuts your brain is using to recoganize information, very likely outside of your awareness, not necessity lining up with your conscious beliefs.
?在這一體現(xiàn)上我們不難理解有限道德對于人的影響
?The idea with bounded ethicality is that we are perhaps overestimating the importance our inner compass is playing in our ethical decisions.
?We perhaps are overestimating how much our self-interest is driving our decisions, perhaps we don't realize how much our self-view as a good person is affecting our behavior.

有限道德對于一個想做好人的人來說,某種意義上卻是離好人越來越遠。
The path to being better people just begins with letting go of being a good person? In fact, we're working so hard to protect that good person identity, to keep out of that red zone, that we're not actually giving ourselves space to learn from our mistakes, and actually be better people.
在對于好人的看法上,我們是非黑即白,沒有一個人既是好人又不是好人。在這個定義下。
There's no room to grow for good people. But in most parts of our lives, we learn from our mistakes, we update our knowledge. We just keep getting better, but when it comes to being a good person, we think it's something we are just supposed to know, we're just supposed to do without the benefit of effort or growth.

How about forget being good people, set a higher standard, a higher standard of being a goodish person.
A goodish person absolutely still makes mistakes. But just learn them, own them,expect them and go after them. Although there are costs to these mistakes. When it comes to issues like ethics and bias and diversity and inclusion, there are real costs to real people,?JUST ACCEPTED IT!
As a goodish person, you will become better at noticing your own mistakes. You don't need to wait for people to point them out. You can practice finding them, you will see progress, you will see growth!
We allow ourselves to get better!
