Logic Mistakes

Sometimes the kinds of mistakes we make have to do with our thinking going awry. For instance, there's the "sunk cost fallacy." That's when we've put effort and time into something so we feel like we have to keep going with it, even though it's not in our best interest to do so. Like let's say we wait for a long time at a restaurant... we can tell that the restaurant is having a horrible night and they've run out of the food we wanted to eat, but we stay there instead of going somewhere else because we've waited this long already.
