Logic-based Decisions and Knowledge

Logic based decisions or knowledge do take part in many day-to-day situations when facing problems or dealing with resolving personal issues. The mind's ability to reason and apply logic is a necessary human feature that implants certain rules set within society or appropriately within a certain situations to be used for discussion and in the resolution of any complications. Some specific examples of the occurrences of such situations that I personally experienced would first include for example to make the decision of either to walk or take a taxi to go to school. With step by step processing, logic and reason is used to decide by placing each situation, that is both walking and taking the taxi, into context that would enable to accomplish the act of reaching school most efficiently. For instance, it is most logical to use a taxi to go to school if there the weather is not cooperating and there is excessive snow or rain. However, a major contrasting factor that might take place is mood, as some days we have more energy than others. Another example that required the use of logic and reasoning in the execution of a decision would include when facing a situation with great importance, that is school-related, such as whether to attend a party on the same weekend of an important science test, or to stay home and study for the science test. Logic is used as the weighing out of the situations is looked upon to deduce their outcomes. From there reasoning is used and a final decision is made. Finally a third example that involves the use of logic is within situations that require problem-solving. This for instance includes stopping a fight between two friends. The analysis of the concepts and arguments of the fight should be completed as a result of logically organizing ideas and issues, and orally dealing it out. These ideas are presented through well-constructed systematic and articulate arguments. This also requires great use of judgement and rationality, as well as evaluation of best solutions, in order to form a final crucial decision. Logic therefore is generally used within day-to-day life in regards to the execution of most desired and best decisions when facing difficult problems that need to be settled. However external factors such as mood, emotions, and other personally-driven aspects do occur that impact the decision-making process. But this should not be an issue as logic over-weighs such personally-driven factors for the most part.
