Time To Embrace The Thought of Death

Death is one event we cannot play mind games with. It is inevitable. We can’t even have proper knowledge of how or when it’s going to hit us, until the very final moments when it’s almost too late to put anything in order or say the necessary goodbyes.

DOUBT WHOM YOU WILL, BUT NEVER YOURSELF.

The elimination of doubt in the pursuit of goals can be equated to filling a car’s fuel tank to the brim before embarking on a long journey. Failure to do so sets the car up for the inevitable, which, of course, is inability to get to the proposed destination in due time.

So You Think You Have Time?

We are naturally programmed to think that we have plenty of time to throw away, but the honest truth is that we don’t.

Nature is technically programmed to ensure that time doesn’t stop running, but how much we make of the hours at our disposal is entirely dependent on our consciousness of how necessary it is to sit up and ensure that every minute is spent productively.

The Fallacy of Hasty Generalization

Dear It's Taophieyc reader,

Today, let's talk about a topic of statistics which is now very interwoven with our everyday life. I didn't even realize there was a term for this phenomenon until I heard it in a vox-pop video I saw on youtube.

First and foremost, a fallacy is a mistaken belief, especially one based on unsound argument.

As explained by Wikipedia, hasty generalization is an informal fallacy generalization by reaching an inductive generalization based on insufficient evidence- essentially making a hasty conclusion without considering all the variables. In statistics, it may involve basing broad conclusions regarding the statistics of a survey from a small sample group that fails to sufficiently represent an entire population.

The fallacy is also known as: Illicit Generalization, Fallacy of Insufficient Sample, Generalization from the Particular, Leaping to a Conclusion, Hasty Induction, Law of Small Numbers, Secundum quid.
