The Magic of Logical Thinking
Logic in simple words is the method of
understanding the difference between correct & incorrect. With the help of
logic, we learn to reason every fact presented to us. Logical reasoning is a
big tool to make a distinction between correct & incorrect information. Let
us understand what exactly logic is & how it is useful in our day to day
lives.
Example:
Abha was told by her parents that she should
take up chess as a hobby. Abha tried learning the game for some time but she
understands that she enjoyed outdoor games. She was already doing very well in
her skating & swimming classes. Abha also had a very strong & athletic
built. She sat down with her parents & made them understand her interest in
outdoor games. She explained how her physic, energy & inherent nature was
helping her to achieve bigger milestones in swimming & skating. Abha’s
parents did understand her point & acknowledged that she can focus her mind
on the games she is naturally good at & feeling passionate about.
The above example is nothing but Abha’s
honest attempt to convince her parents through logical arguments. While taking
help from a logic one must have all the facts to support the argument or
reasoning.
