How do I know what Iknow?
There are three majors factors that go into education and knowledge life-wise. The three factors are: what you are told, what you see, and what you do. The first is the most common. People are told what to do and what not to do from infancy. Either your mother of your father always told you to stop doing something that they did not think you should be doing. Clearly you counld not understand what they were saying at the time, but you somehow knew that there was a problem with what you were doing by the impression that your mom or dad showed. This understanding eventually leads to actual recollection of knowing what is and is not allowed. The second factor is what you see. Many people in the world learn best by visual interpretation. You remember and register what you see better, rather than you are told or what you hear. If you see someone walk into the street without looking and they are either hit or close to it, then you realize that you could possibly have the same outcome if you were to duplicate those actions. This can also go back to the first factor. Sometimes parents use visual depictions when trying to explain something to their new born baby or young child. Finally, the third factor is what you do. Experience is the best teacher, because there is no way to think that something will change with the same variable if you, yourself, saw it happen. You know that no one can rightly dispute something you saw if they didn't see it themselves. Naturally, what you know has happened will be the ultimate determining factor in making a decision. This is how I know what I know.
