CRITICAL THINKING



            Hello everyone, for today's topic, I will be talking about critical thinking and how it can reform our present generation. 

            According to Foundation for critical thinking, critical thinking is the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying and/or evaluating information gathered from observation or communication as a guide to belief and action.

            In my words, I would say that critical thinking is the ability to think deep with a view to solving difficult situations through observation.

            The technology that we are all making use of today; the cars we are driving, the smartphones we use, the use of internet to make researches, the use of electrical devices to perform some functions in our homes and so on. I want us to know that all these have been seen from many centuries ago by men who wanted to make the world they lived in a better place to live in but unfortunately, couldn't fulfill their dreams. 

            But I want us to know that the birth of this jet age didn't just come suddenly one morning and voila! the jet age was born, No! The jet age came about by critical thinking by people who sought for solutions to the problems that we were facing.

            Thomas Edison didn't just stumble on how to create an electric bulb on a platter of gold, he sat down, analyzed the situation around him, found a problem and made up his mind to solve that problem even if the people around him wasn't seeing the future that he was seeing.

            My point here for everyone is that when we find ourselves in difficult situations and the way out seems not in sight; if we can calm down and analyze the problems we are facing, we will notice that the solution to the problems that we are passing through was right in front of us. So in this coming week, I want us to practice critical thinking in our daily lives and help improve the well being of everyone.

            I hope these tips will be of good use to you. Please do not forget to press that follow or subscribe button if you have not done so. Thank you and see you till I return from school by the grace of God. Bye!

LETTING GO

Happy new year everyone. I hope this write up adds to us in this new year. According to the vocapture dictionary, an habit is an action performed repeatedly and automatically usually without awareness. I would say that an habit is an action that is cultivate gradually. As human beings, we can discern from what is right and wrong. With this ability to discern, we choose to cultivate either good or bad habits. The cultivation of these habits will determine if the products will ad to your life positively or negatively and this is where our inner man comes to play and directs our actions. It is left to us to pick an action between what is wrong and what is right. The cultivation of bad habits often leads to grevious consequences. I want to point out something here; the cultivation of bad habit is easy but turning a new leaf is going to be difficult and if not careful, it could develop into an addiction> In some cases, their addiction leaves a stigma in their lives forever. To all those ...

BLOG UPDATE

  Hey guys, I’m back and glory be to God. For today, I will not be speaking on anything in particular. Starting my blog, I did not have a specific field of interest to discuss with my audience but as time went by, I observed that many people of my age have interest in Information Communication Technology (ICT) but does not have the proper training or guidance to help them translate their desire into reality. This inspired me to be of help to people of my age, the elderly and the young to assist them in bringing their hopes and dreams alive; and on this note, I’m going to make this blog an ICT and technological inclined blog. Thank you.                 Please share your ideas in the comment section on what area of ICT your interest lies. This is going to be our first tech based interaction and it is going to form the essential core of engagement on this platform going forward. First, in my own perspective...

There are various benefits of garlic, which some will be listed here: 1. Boost immunity:  In test tubes,  garlic  appears to kill cancer cells, and studies involving people show some of the same outcomes. According to the Iowa Women’s Health Study, involving 41,000 middle-aged women, those who routinely ate garlic, fruits and vegetables had a 35 percent lower colon cancer risk. Benefits came from raw and cooked garlic – not supplements. 2. Work as an anti-inflammatory:  Research  has shown that garlic oil works as an anti-inflammatory. So, if you have sore and inflamed joints or muscles, rub them with the oil. 3.
