Ola Rosling, co-founder of Gapminder and co-author of *Factfulness* with his father Hans Rosling, often speaks on how we perceive the world. Here are a few quotes from him that reflect his views on life, understanding, and mindset:
1. **”The world can be both bad and better at the same time.”**
Rosling emphasizes the importance of seeing both progress and ongoing issues, understanding that while many things improve, challenges remain.
2. **”When you have a fact-based worldview, life can be pretty exciting.”**
Ola advocates for learning about the world through evidence, which can bring a sense of optimism and curiosity about ongoing improvements.
3. **”What we hear about the world isn’t necessarily how the world is.”**
This speaks to the importance of questioning preconceptions and understanding that media often highlights extremes rather than day-to-day progress.
4. **”It’s not our ignorance that makes us wrong; it’s our instincts.”**
Rosling suggests that human nature leads us to think in binaries (like fear and prejudice), which often prevents us from understanding life’s true complexity.
His insights often revolve around correcting our instincts and biases, encouraging a balanced and fact-based view on life.
