Essays on Intuition

Intuition is the inner power of an individual that helps to connect with the environment (Osho, 1). However, there are the biological, social and scientific explanations that drive humans to ignore their intuitions, even in instances where the intuition could be actually correct. It is therefore important for individuals to understand what intuition is, and have the ability to differentiate it from wishful thinking, as the two can be really confusing. At times intuition can be wrong, just as it is occasionally correct. It would therefore be an act of undermining the inborn roots of knowledge to just ignore ...

Intuition and judgement: A critical analysis

Intuition plays a role, big or small, in many of the decisions made by humans in their day to day life. Intuition is on the subconscious end of reasoning and is thus inexplicable in normal logical terms many a times. The very definition of the term ‘intuition’ says that it is the “knowledge acquired from instinctive feeling rather than conscious reasoning”. This is why intuition is regarded an activity of the right side of the brain and is said to play a good part in developing aesthetic nature in man. It is thus, easy to see, how intuition plays a role in many ...

Discarding Explanations that are Intuitively Appealing

Intuitively appealing explanations are those explanations that are reasoned out using one’s instincts instead of using conscious logic. Human beings are usually confused by intuition because it may act against them or in their favor. In most cases, intuition tends to be correct, but total reliance in intuition should be avoided or made minimal. This means that intuitively appealing explanations should be discarded if they cause confusion in humans. Additionally, in order to discard these explanations, once should put into consideration the feelings, logic, rationale, insight, and methods of acquiring knowledge. For instance, a person will use the mineral ...

Logical thinking is often called critical thinking or left brain thinking. Logical thinking is that type of thinking which allows individual to think based on what we know or knowledge, certainties and what we can prove. Logical thinking is persistent when we think and decide with provable and rationally definite information i.e. information we can be certain about because it has been established methodically. This allows us to make logical deductions. It is the type of thinking that we use in doing things with definite rules like playing chess, and solving puzzles with definite answer.

Out of several pros ...

Introduction

Intellectuals spent a considerable period of time during the 20th century discussing skeptical arguments which claim that it is impossible to have knowledge of the existing world. These arguments stem from theories of Descartes and have been the basis of heated discourses on the subject of the external world. The skeptics to the notion of the external world have claimed that their premises on the subject are intuitively obvious. However, they have not offered empirical evidence to underpin their intuition. Some authors contend that the intuitions underpinning their skeptical arguments are universal (widely shared) for those who think critically about ...

Throughout history, philosophers have often clashed heads in regards to the definition and understanding of the human self. Many have formulated a myriad of theories that attempt to decipher the true meaning and motivations of the human self. Two of the moist prolific philosophers of the exploration of this aspect were Immanuel Kant and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Emerson was an American philosopher born and raised in Massachusetts. On the other hand, Kant lived in an earlier era and was German by birth. It was Kant’s original transcendental deductions that later acted as an influence to the New England Transcendentalism ...

Introduction

“That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.” - Christopher Hitchens Such brazen remark would seem highly provocative at first instance, as it tackles a particularly sensitive component of epistemology – evidence. There are numerous debates surrounding the study of evidence, being undoubtedly controversial due to the contentious definition of knowledge. Nevertheless, it does not mean to say that the subject matter does not render any possible resolutions, albeit the debate will carry on as various schools of thought hold different stands on knowledge. This study will ...

Intuition in Problem Solving

Intuition is the ability to understand something with ease without the need for reasoning consciously. It is also the acquisition of knowledge without interference and often conceived as a kind of inner perception regarded as a real lucidity. Intuition encompasses the ability of knowing valid solutions to problems and decision-making. For instance, the recognition-primed decision model explains how people make fast decisions without comparing options. Research shows how under time pressure, high stakes and change parameters, experts used their base of experience; identifying similar situations and easily choosing feasible solutions. Therefore, the model is a blend of intuition analysis also known as ...

Eugene Flinn’s “The Inn of the Seventy-Seven Clocks” is a mystery crime novel combined with the author’s humorous approach in storytelling. An analysis of the novel may be from various perspectives but the succeeding discussion will focus on the protagonists’ methods or techniques in solving the narrative’s mysteries. A combination of logical reasoning and intuition helped Inspector J. Pequod Dyxx and his wife Evangeline unravel the novel’s mysteries. Flinn’s narrative illustrates the effect of one method on the other such that intuition plays an important role in the protagonists’ realization of some details and vice ...

Emotional intelligence in Nursing

Emotional intelligence in nursing is the ability to process emotions, understanding and assimilations, and manage emotions. Extensive research outside the practice of nursing has exhibited correlations between significant workplace and measured emotional intelligence and the outcomes of workforce such as management of stress, effective leadership, and performance, retention of jobs, job satisfaction, positive conflict styles and burnout prevention . In a number of nursing research studies, pilot data have exhibited the same results that correlates measured emotional intelligence with nursing performance levels in the nursing leaders and clinical staff, stress adaptation, job satisfaction, professional achievement and some positive clinical outcomes in ...

- Why it is difficult to distinguish between clinical-decision making errors solely due to intuitive judgment or analytical judgment? Decisions made will depend on both intuitive and analytical judgment. Intuitive judgment mainly comes from the experience of the nurse. According to Bjork and Hamilton (2011), intuition develops from experience in managing patients in the nursing field. In this case, the nurse does not need to refer to analytical principles since the continuous exposure to these similar scenarios has led them to develop cues on how to assess different clinical situations. On the other hand, where the nurse does ...

'Our senses are an unreliable source of information about the world, and thus can never provide us with any certainty in the truth of our beliefs' The senses are a curious thing. They're the fundamental lens through which humanity - the entirety of the human experience - has been surveyed. Without our senses we are nothing. They provide all the input needed to interact with the physical world, and that interaction is crucial for us to enter the abstract plane of thought. How would one contemplate the sound of water, or the sight of birds in flight without having ...

It helps the management in solving the problems faced by business in eight simple steps of identifying the problem, developing and selecting the alternatives solutions for the problem and evaluating the decision effectiveness in solving the problem (Robbins & Coulter, 2012). There are two types of decisions made by the managers of a firm. These decisions are based on the type of problems a ...

The scientific method of cognition leads Descartes to the boundless confidence in the mind. However, the mind is skeptical and doubting. Actually, the path to philosophy begins from doubt. Therefore, you need to doubt all your feelings and thoughts. This conclusion follows from the first rule of the method. But then, according to the second rule, the fact of doubt will be doubtless. And if something is doubting, it thinks. So, there is something what is thinking, that is, the subject, the "I". There is one last step: "I think, therefore I am, therefore, there is a thinking thing or ...

Discussion 1 - Question 1 Hello Vida It is apparent that critical and frequent assessment is a mandatory and important undertaking in acute care in-patient psychiatry. Examining the patient and his/her situation is essential to selection the best practical strategy for addressing the presented condition.

Introduction

One’s personality traits may be used to determine their intended purpose in this world. This is because one’s personality traits, strengths and weaknesses have a bearing on how they react to certain situations which may occur in different job settings (Robert and Blake 41). For example, it is natural for a scientists or researcher to be keen-to detail and inquisitive, while a teacher may be patient. My personality is “INTJ” (Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Judging). This implies that my mode of living is primarily focused to the internal and that I rely heavily on my intuition. My secondary mode of living ...

Haddon (36) says that, "Intuition can sometimes get things wrong. But logic can help you work out the right answer." Haddon (36) claims through Christopher that logic is the only way out; Christopher never found logic being that useful throughout the novel. For instance, despite the fact that prime numbers can easily be obtained by taking away all possible patterns, there are never specific rules ascertaining the same concept (Haddon 9). In addition, Mr. Jeavons claims that despite being a logical person Christopher was thinking illogically (Haddon 15). Lastly, Haddon (36) confirms that even though Christopher believed in finding the ...

In the case in Learning Exercise 1.11 in page 27 where I had to assume the role of a newly graduated nurse finishing a 3 month probation period at a first job in acute care nursing (as presented in the book) was a rather complex one because there were a lot of factors and variables involved, some of which were even unique to the situation and not commonly encountered by normal people. Considering all these findings, it would be unwise to solve the problem using a systematic or standards-based problem solving model because as mentioned, the factors and variables were unique to the situation and ...

The first objection is that fine art does not deserve scientific treatment and the other is worthiness of the art. Hegel aims to analyze free art but not the ancillary art. He says free ...

The left brain vs. the right brain

Abstract There are many theories that seek to explain how the human brain functions. One of them is the left brain versus the right brain theory. This theory argues that the human brain is divided into two hemispheres; the left and the right hemisphere. It is believed that the two sides of the brain function independent of one another and that their functions are totally different. People have one side of their brain being dominant to the other. This implies that the person’s personality, ability or thinking capacity is dependent on the side of the brain they ...

- Why it is difficult to distinguish between clinical-decision making errors solely due to intuitive judgment or analytical judgment? Clinical decision-making is based on the situation nurses face at hand. These situations may require the application of expertise or intuition in addressing it. Errors may result from either applying the right analytical procedures to a scenario or using traditional ritualistic reasoning. According to Hughes (2008), using intuitive judgment in most cases results to improving the standard nursing practices. Intuitive judgment assists in developing new standards reducing the use of wrong and outdated approaches to health care, and increasing prevention ...

Intuition

Intuition is basically all about pattern matching and recognition of pattern. It is mostly based on individuals past experience. Furthermore it gives a description of preference and thoughts that come into our mind quickly leaving no room for reflection.

In the recent past, studies in the field of cognitive science have brought forth overwhelming evidence on the relationship between moral judgment and emotions. However, research on this topic a couple of decades old.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a theoretically crafted personality test based on theory of psychology types. This theory was developed by Carl Jung at the beginning of the 1920s (Kaplan & Saccuzzo, 2013). Jung underlined the distinction between introversion, which refers to the individual’s focus on his/her inner world, and extraversion, which Jung defined as concentration on the outside world (Kalat, 2014). Additionally, he stated that we experience and discover the world via four main ways: sensing, intuition, feeling, and thinking. Sensing refers to gaining knowledge through touch, sight, hearing, and the rest of human senses. Intuition means drawing ...

Evidence based management applies facts and figures in order to make the correct decision in an organization. The essay by my classmate is simplistic in that it holds that the facts are easy to obtain and apply. My classmate assumes that evidence based management is ideal in managing today’s business organizations. However, this is not the case in reality. Reliance on intuition and experience proves worthwhile, despite technological advances that have enhanced communication.

Hume and Bergeson were philosophical scientists who are remembered for their contributions on humanity nature.

Many men in the society usually strive to achieve recognition of their manhood whilst some even do the unthinkable in a bid to attain manhood. Consequently, some people think that one can only achieve manhood through being violent, controlling, inconsiderate, and unkind. Nevertheless, some men are blinded by their pride and hatred and thus fail to realize that real manhood can also be achieved through the greatest acts of humility and humanity. In trying to understand this concept, Theodore Roethke’s poem “my papa’s waltz” and Faulkner’s “Barn Burning” will be used in this paper. Roethke’s “my ...
