People are bad at analyzing their own behavior.

I don't use Google analytics but I have seen time and again vocal users who seem ignorant of their own usage of an application...and very much not representative of the majority.

People are bad at analysing metrics, too. You make a change and users spend half as much time on a page. Did you make the page twice as easy to use, or so bad that they gave up?
