True or False?
Hi Everyone,
We talked about what is real and would like to ask you how you understand what is tru or false. How you understand what really is true?
For me to understand what is real I must know what is the goal that create the information, product, activity or something else - then I see how it is presented, but when we do not know what is the goal of the information ... how you understand does it true or false...
Best Regards,
Lyubomir

Re: True or False?
Hello.
When the outcome of a particular topic has a potential impact on me, but I don't know whether it is true or false, I try to find the most prudent course of action. This way, it doesn't matter whether something is true or false, I am positioned for the best possible outcome regardless.
Example: Suppose there's no more food delivered to grocery stores for whatever reason - trucks stopped, electricity blew up, we ran out of oil, whatever. The prudent thing to do is to grow one's own food, and this is what I am trying to do now. If the food delivery system fails (true), then no problem, got it covered. If it doesn't (false), then I've learned a new skill (permaculture) and I get free, delicious food. Win-win!
The most prudent action is usually a win-win decision.
Edit: This is particularly important when the consequences of not acting could be threatening. If there's no food delivered, and I'm not growing my own, I'd starve. See Decision Theory.
