Benjamin Franklin, known as the father of United states of America was a scientist, thinker,author, printer,political theorist, politician, freemason, postmaster and a person with many more titles.It was his 'left brain guided by his right brain' that made him do that. He gave a psychology law that's known as Ben Franklin effect. But before moving to the law it is important to know about the right guided left brain.
Actually,I consider such a guy an ultimate guy. Another such guy is Elon Musk. The right brain has ideas, a crave to do many things and on the other hand the left brain has the focus to take it to perfection. Such people are happy and successful.
Well here're the Ben Franklin laws,
"A person who has performed a favor for someone is more likely to do another favor for that person than they would be if they had received a favor from that person".
As David McRaney explains in lis book "You are now less dumb",
'Many psychologists would explain the Benjamin Franklin effect through the lens of cognitive dissonance, a giant theory made up of thousands of studies which have pinpointed a menagerie of mental stumbling blocks including confirmation bias, hindsight bias, the backfire effect, the sunk cost fallacy, and many more, but as a general theory it describes something you experience every day.'
