Thinking is just the flow of thoughts. Logical thinking is a rare kind of thinking that is required in schools in the classroom and tested in intelligence tests. In logical thinking, people use clear concepts and think logically.
However, it is important to understand that people themselves are not inclined to logic. If people are not taught logic and are not accustomed to logic, people tend to think not logically, but how it is easier for them or how it is beneficial for them. In everyday life, people use logical thinking not only not always, but rather even rarely, replacing it with thinking habits, interesting considerations, and sometimes obvious absurdity.
Psychologist I.V. Latypov made an interesting selection of everyday near-psychological absurdity:
- I’m a fat worthless pimply freak. Why don’t girls see my virtues?!
- Teach them how to throw women properly, otherwise they want an explanation for some reason.
- I have read a lot of books on psychology. This is some kind of nonsense. Prove it’s not.
- Tell me what I want.
- How to cheat on your wife, and at the same time not be tormented by conscience?
- Explain to me how to learn to relax, but keep in mind that I don’t have time for anything.
- I need to break up with the guy, but so that he continues to love me.
- How can I leave someone I don’t want to leave?
- How to gain confidence in this world of bastards and scum?
- How can I explain to my wife that if she leaves me, it will be better for her?
- How can I stop feeling and finally start to live normally?
- I want to want to want.
- I’m afraid of my wife. I want her to be afraid of me too.
- Show me how you work, just not for me — I need to make a decision whether to take you on as a therapist or not.
- It annoys me when my husband threatens to kill me. How not to get annoyed?
- I am a strong and confident woman, I never complain about any of my problems. Why does everyone think I’m problem-free and no one wants to help?!
- Sorry, I have erection problems. To hell with them, with the relationship with his wife — she’s a bitch, you tell me better how to make it stand. It doesn’t work with other bitches either.
- I want to start relationships with beautiful depraved virgins for free.
- I struggle to keep up both at work and at home. Where do I need to make more efforts to finally start to keep up?
- I’m always in a hurry, pushing events too fast… Although, it seems to me, you won’t help here.
- I really love the guy, but he doesn’t have me … How can he take revenge for this?
- He beats me, mocks me and constantly threatens me with divorce. Can you explain to him that divorce is too much?
- I decided to part with her, but she can’t guess about it.
- This guy just can’t understand that if I ignore him and look down on him, it means that I like him. I don’t know what else to do to make him understand.
- It’s about her, not about me. That is, on the contrary, it’s not about me, but about her. Ugh you…
- I can not take it anymore. Do anything with me, but don’t ask me anything!
- I love my son. Too bad he’s not a girl.
- He cannot bear the truth. I tell him he’s shit and he swears back. I’m telling you — he only needs sweet lies!
- Tell me I’m not stupid! Now, you said it, and I feel like a complete fool …
- You said that I am psychologically dependent on my mother … I think you are right, and I talked about this with my mother.
- I don’t understand why you get angry when I insult you? You are a psychologist!
- I understand that you psychologists are not magicians, and that I must ultimately do everything myself. Just give me step-by-step instructions on how to live, and then I myself.
In scientific research and in mathematics, logical thinking is absolutely essential. In business, the requirements for the logic of thinking are also quite high, but the speed and practicality of thinking are also more in demand there than strict logic.
Do you need logical thinking? If you don’t love anyone and only have fun in life, you can talk without thinking and think without logic. Who will forbid you? If you plan to take care of at least yourself, all the more so to give something meaningful to those who are dear to you, you will follow your own logic, turn on your head, and live like a person. I wish you success!
