Inductive reasoning and your relationship with failure

Deductive reasoning is the super power of Sherlock Holmes. It is also, just like bigfoot, largely a myth. You may have a case of having seen ‘a’ bigfoot, and not ‘the’ bigfoot, but I doubt it. Have you ever taken the time to build your deductive skills that you can solve a Rubik’s cube without learning from someone else? Maybe, but you will be the one in a million that did.

The human organism seems to rather favor inductive reasoning, which is based on experiences and learning from the past. It happens automatically and is something that can shape future education if we let it.

“I am convinced that the act of thinking logically cannot possibly be natural to the human mind. If it were, then mathematics would be everybody's easiest course at school and our species would not have taken several millennia to figure out the scientific method.”
― Neil deGrasse Tyson
