Great video Shaf. Single best piece of advice I was ever given was to be logical and rationale in decision making. Do not let emotion cloud your judgement.
@@ShafRasulWealth This really is one of my favourite videos, while people think, it is less common to examine how we think and recognise that this can be improved upon.
Logic isn’t inherently related to science or philosophy, it’s a whole different subject entirely. There’s tons of people who I could name that are better logical thinkers than Einstein, but scientifically speaking, there’s not one person I could name more scientific than Einstein.
I DO and alwyas did all of these steps even as a child (instinctively) but still unable to revive my Architectural firm that had to shut down due to family emergency. Any advice?
I think figuring out how to reliably solve a Rubik's cube can improve your critical thinking, but once you figure it out the gains would be minimal to continue to do so, besides an occasional Rubik's romp to freshen your memory.
Can you answer this logic? “If you pass the final examination and submit all the requirements, then you may join the graduation.” The student passes only the final exam, but the teacher allows her to join the graduation. Has the teacher broken her original promise?
in the above line, it was said that you had to pass the final examination and *submit all the requirements* . although he failed the other exams, he passed the final exam and also submit all the requirements. Therefore, the teacher allowed him and no, she has not broken her promise. please correct me if i am wrong :)
@@astrielle446 The teacher did break her promise. It never said that he did all the requirements so we can deduce that the teacher did break her promise
In the statement above, the promise is that if you pass the final exam and submit the requirements, you may graduate. It does NOT say that if you don't pass the final exam and/or don't submit the requirements, then you don't graduate. If p is false in p -> q, then the statement is vacuously true no matter whether q is true or false. Therefore, no promise was broken

As someone who has studied critical thinking for the last 20 years, I can attest that this list is not very useful. 1, 3, 4 and 5 are just ways to practice and refine logical thinking. They have nothing to do with teaching actual critical thinking. Number three is just rote practice. Without an inate ability to visualize possibilities, along with training, no amount of playing games will improve by playing the game, and it does not improve thinking ability. Number 4 could put critical thinking to use only if the entertainment provides an actual conclusion that could be reasonably drawn from the evidence provided. The problem is that 95% of mystery shows and books do not work that way, so they are useless. In 5, anticipation has nothing to do with analysis. Anticipation is its own advice which is not very good at teaching anything but conjecture. The last two are the only things actually useful. Number 7, though, is pointless unless someone is trained to identify all the various types of bias. Even trained scientists have difficulty with that one, so you can't just tell someone to not have bias. I give the advice here a C-.
@@fati3178 I'm not sure what you mean by that (I have a feeling that you missread something), but I am sure you're talking about asking me to do your homewoerk for you. How much money you got?
Please help me. I did very good in my GCSEs and A levels, i was very very good at Maths, very good at debating and analysing data, but terrible (like unbelievably) at logical reasoning tests. My programming is very good, and i have created very big apps, but still, i just don't know why i suck at these diagrammatical tests etc..
@@theguidancecounsellor2948 You can't diagram your way through a debate. Just forget all that nonsense and focus on practicing identifying formal and informal fallacies (Review them regularly). But more important than identifying them is making sure you are not committing them yourself. 99% of people who have received college classes in critical thinking do not ever learn to apply it properly. So you are not alone. Try to avoid saying, "You are committing the such-and-such fallacy." Be polite and simply apply the definition without using the term, such as saying, "You have gone full circle," instead of "That's circular reasoning." Also, be friendly and understanding, instead of confrontational. (Flies and honey and all that.) Staying emotionally healthy will help guard you against bad reasoning. Most importantly, NEVER think you are going to convince someone to change their mind. When you go into the discussion thinking you will "win" or change someone's mind, then you have already lost. Simply give them the information and the reasoning and let them mull it over. Whether they accept your reasoning is no concern of yours. (It truly is none of your business.) If they get uppity, keep your cool. Never let yourself get riled up. Also, be willing to recognize better reasoning than your own; never be tied to your own reasoning as absolute truth. Your willingness to change tracks and improve is the only way you will. Finally, the only way to get good at reasoning is to fall in love with it and learn to use it for all your decision-making. As you do, become intimately familiar with the various types of biases, be aware of yours and avoid letting them guide your decisions except where they are connected to your moral structure for being a good person. Relax, be knowledgeable about fallacies and biases, rely on verifiable facts, be humble and practice, practice, practice until it is second nature. Do that and you will fair well.
As someone who read the video title, I think the video delivers A+ on what it was supposed to deliver. Unless the title changed..."ways to improve" never meant ways to "teach".
@@katehu7194 Wow. You really got caught up on that word and missed everything I said and highlighted exactly why the video failed through your own lack of critical thinking. ("Critical thinking" doesn't actually mean being critical of others. It means to question, even your own words, which you failed to do.) I never made any claim that he was showing us how to teach critical thinking. I referred only to the so-called methods of critical thinking that HE is trying to teach to HIS audience. He called them "hacks", but they do not actually hack anything. Practice is not a hack. Unless a game teaches actual reasoning skills, it is not a hack. Critical thinking, also known as logic and reasoning, is a practice that is taught in colleges. Many books have set out formal structures and listed informal fallacies to help people think well. This video didn't touch on any but a couple of things, and not very well. I wouldn't have a problem if he had titled it, "How to get better at life," and left out the useless part about strategy games. I've known plenty of bad thinkers that are strategy game masterminds, and plenty of excellent thinkers that are terrible at strategy games. Strategy games are games of spacial awareness, foresight, memory recall and todo list planning, not logic. This means that ADHD people are usually terrible at strategy games, but their reasoning skills are unaffected by the disorder.
Was very interested in this video Until you put down Barack Obama's one of the great leaders of our time... The fact that you put him in the same category as Einstein and Aristotle is ridiculous... sorry but this completely invalidated anything else that I would have seen on this video
Sir I struggled with your accent so I turned on captions, I think if you don't mind me teaching you how to pronounce the English words here. We never ever ever roll the 'r' in English. Please fix on that before people ever click on your subscription and bell icon

1. Be chunky.
2. Face Facts
3. Play the game.
4. There's been a murder
5. Analyse This
6. What's the objective?
7. Natural bias
Thanks

Second that, another great video, hypotheses should be grounded in evidence.

Interesting to consider what gut reactions are comprised of in this context.

4. There's been a murder
This catch my attention, I've been watching crime, mysteries, alien-life movies or documentary always.
Geek Moh Thank you for watching 😉
I didn't expect to find a video like this. This is next level advice!
These are actually very perspicacious observations.
Keep up the good work !
Thank you very much!
Best video I have ever watched...impressive and helpful..Thank you sir

Is solving Rubik's cube helpful for improving the power of critical thinking?
I think figuring out how to reliably solve a Rubik's cube can improve your critical thinking, but once you figure it out the gains would be minimal to continue to do so, besides an occasional Rubik's romp to freshen your memory.

@@gamerdio2503 That would be true but it seems that the student did pass the exam so the teacher did break the promise.
By using Obama as an example of a logical rational thinker, leads me to believe that you are not a logical rational thinker.
Thank you. Very helpful

Things you "know to be true" could be riddled with opinions and fixed ideas.
Rather things that have been established by relevant authorities as true

Hi
Yall came from deat note don’t lie
But why tf would we come from Death Note?
Projecting?
Do word search games work?
kind of but, you can play online sudoku or chess. there better for logical skills.
