The surprising reason why the wine-loving venture president ``stopped drinking when I noticed'' I didn't mean to quit drinking at all

The third method for creating hypotheses is data.

Some people casually say hello, "It's hot this year." When I come across these words, I stop. "It's hot today" can be confirmed immediately as a fact, but "It's hot this year" cannot be confirmed without comparing it with data.

In the first place, it is better to think that people's memories are as sloppy as delusions. People tend to think, "I remember it because I saw it on the spot," but I don't know if I actually saw it correctly. Memories become distorted as they are stored. It is not advisable to rely on memory when forming hypotheses.

So anything that has statistical data is data.

I will introduce the process of making a hypothesis from data and executing it from a frame of my daily life.

I've had a Fitbit heart rate smartwatch for the last few years. After watching Fitbit data every night and repeating hypothesis testing, I naturally stopped drinking alcohol. Even though he loved wine so much that he named his company "Cork".

What was the process like?

Fitbit gives you resting heart rate and sleep score. Looking at the data, there are days when my resting heart rate is irregularly high and my sleep score is low. The common denominator was drinking. Drinking alcohol impairs sleep quality.

Knowing that, I drank alcohol only at the beginning of the meal and refrained from the latter half, took a long bath on the day I drank it, drank a lot of water before going to bed, and carried out various hypotheses. . He tried many ways to get a good night's sleep while drinking. But in the end, no matter what I tried, it didn't work. In the end, I came to the conclusion that I shouldn't drink alcohol.
