It’s time to explore key ideas and takeaways.

First up. 2 “tales” from history.

Next up. Two “quotes.” 

Our first story.

Subject: Social Constructs.
Five Thought Tools < TST Framework < Critical Thinking

To be clear.

A Social Construct is a shared non-natural belief; created and maintained by groups; and they shape reality.

Now for our second story.

Subject: Socratic Method.
Socrates taught skepticism and critical thinking. He taught that a life with the seek truth tenant is required no matter what culture and time you live in.

In short.

Socrates taught that self-reflection brought knowledge, which in turn brought meaning. I think he wanted you to uncover the truth, no matter what it is, reconcile it with your beliefs, and make sense of it in a way that is consistent with common knowledge.

Finally, 4 frequently asked “questions.” 

Tidbit number three, the first of two quotes.

Subject: Reflective Inquiry.
Question. Evaluate. Enlighten.

At its core.

Idea evaluation, reflective inquiry, is part of taking control of what you allow into your mind — one of the few things you truly have control over in life. Using techniques like the Socratic Method and Occam’s Razor, you can rigorously assess ideas. Through systematic evaluation, you can bolster well-supported arguments and rid yourself of weak or misleading ones.

Tidbit number four, another quote.

Subject: Causation versus Correlation.
Cause and effect feel certain because experience trains us to expect patterns. Hume pointed out that just because something always happens in our experience doesn’t mean it must happen.

Now, to be clear.

Reasoning is one of the Five Thought Tools, it demands we question whether we’re seeing real causation, or just a misleading correlation. Always ask: What’s the evidence? Hume said, repeated observation shows habit, not logical necessity.
