Comments on: Help find a name http://danariely.com/2009/10/30/help-find-a-name/ My Irrational Life Tue, 07 Feb 2012 23:59:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Reggie http://danariely.com/2009/10/30/help-find-a-name/#comment-4180 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 05:12:48 +0000 http://www.predictablyirrational.com/?p=691#comment-4180 I suggest you simply wait until completing the book to find your title. Something you write will likely stick out in your mind, screaming to be highlighted on the book’s cover.

Of course in the end, the decision largely rests on your goals. By naming the book before completing it, you have set in stone the topics you will write about, thus pushing your focus in that specific direction. If you wait until completion, then you are free to switch things up a bit during your process, and perhaps introduce some other topics you never imagined discussing.

Or at least that is the way I see things!

“Oh shit! Cheat again”
“Shit… dating cheat everywhere”
Mais peut-être n’est ce pas “politiquement correct”?
Best regards

“living irrationally”
– at home and at work

2) “practically rational”
–living our pursuits

3)”simply rationale” (simply irrational)

4)”irrationally strategic”

5)”irrational intimacies”

“Predictably Irrational, Again!”

“Again” serves a dual role: underscores predictability, and shows the book is a sequel. I also like the suggested: Still Predictably Irrational.

The subtext could read:

“Irrationality in our Pursuit of Happiness”

Really, that’s what we’re after when we do anything like date, work, and cheat (and read this book). This also portends a solution to our pursuit of happiness, but doesn’t offer it right on the cover. The reader will have to dig in, and purchase, to find the more rational path in his/her pursuit of happiness.
