Are you really educated? Think again

If there’s one thing evolution has shown to us its that more and more humans are becoming naive. First the man was extra-ordinary created things, hunted big giants, was happy emotionally, physically fit. In fact people like Al-Jabr came to Earth introducing one of the ideas that had to change to world: the Algebra.
There is one pattern repeated. That history doesn’t repeat. What I was 2 years ago and what happened to me won’t happen anymore. If with some luck people were saved from Hurricane Irma. that Donald Trump donated 1 million dollars, that Mark Zuckerberg donated $97,000, that won’t happen again. We’re not sure if Donald Trump will again save Earth, but we’re sure of one thing, that many more tragedies will occur. Its not that I’m pessimistic, I just observe events around me and then use what I have to understand and interpret: Intelligence.

Lessons Learned

Man’s limited capacity brain can drift into working with what’s easily available to it. But 21st century created phenomenons for people to block them from seeing one or more factors that cause dysfunctional thinking. I’ve seen “nominalists” who think Mathematics has no connection whatsoever to Earth. A man should master his own brain, his own psychological tendencies. How you do that? by learning and observing patterns among nature. Physics is a beautiful explanation of this strange reality we call “Earth”. If you’ve ever taken a Physics class, even though you’re not that “interested” in sciences, I’m sure it would’ve changed your life and your perspective completely. Understanding of Physics is very important in understanding of the Earth. Now combine that with Mathematics, Psychology, you can do your own synthesis and create your own checklists and mental heuristics to make decision-making easy. One is for example the so called “80/20 Analysis”. Now add to that more tests and analysis for example the SWOT Analysis. These are very elementary examples.

I’m going to leave you with a quote from Ludwig Wittgenstein:
The limits of my language mean the limits of my world.
Understanding these things don’t require one to formally pass an exam and get good grades. As Mark Twain would say, “I never let my schooling interfere with my education”.
