The allegory of the cave man #4

In the allegory of the cave man  socrates said '' I said,let me show in a figure how far our nature is englightened or unenlightened:- behold! human beings living in a underground  den, which has a mouth open towards the light and reaching all along the den; here they have been from their childhood, and have their legs and necks chained so that they cannot move, and can only see before them,being prevented by the chains from turning round their heads.''The people were perplexed because they believed in a lie so much that when they were told the truth with proof they still were in denial.The truth was a lie an illusion and the lie  they lived for them was the truth so even  though they were shown the light they still choose to live in the darkIt's hard to except change when living a certain way for many years, the reality of it all cannot seem to make sense it will always seem foreign.

"I know the truth" blog# 3

The article speaks of how we the people are easily misinformed manipulated and mislead. Reason being the cultural center will not be built on the site of the world trade towers destroyed on September 11 but about a tenth of a mile away .Contradiction ,because many lost a lot of loved ones and feel that a ground zero is a memorial site. Rejection of the rumors also plummeted among subjects who read the rebuttals along with raufs words about Americas shared responsibility for 9/11.What was most disturbing to the researchers was not just how easy it is to manipulate people’s belief systems with insinuating pictures or inflammatory quotes. If it weren’t easy, negative political ads wouldn’t work.

How to do one thing at a time Blog #1

A recent article published in science journal nuro-image revealed that when we attempt demanding tasks simultaneously, we end up doing neither as well as we should because our brains have cognitive limits. There was a study done at Stanford University. A group of students was asked to spend 30 minutes simultaneously compiling a music playlist, chatting and writing a short essay. A second group focused on each task individually for 10 minutes each. Afterward, they were given a memory test the single taskers did significantly better than their multi-tasking peers.’ A tremendous amount of evidence shows the brain does better when its performing tasks in sequence rather than all at once ''.we still don’t know the long-term effects of chronic multi-tasking but there’s no questions were bad at it and its bad for us.
     I agree because our brain stores a minimal amount at a time which if we try to overcrowd our brain with too much at once it will result in confusion and error. Verses if we take our time to absorb and respond to what were doing we will result in a better out come. I remember when I was working in the hospital we had a high census of 40 patients, we had myself plus another tech, three nurses and we had to admit patients, do vital signs, blood work, ekg, perform patient care for new and old patients, assist nurses, chart patient findings and doings by the time it was almost time for the shift to end..And we had to get ready to finish up with patients to get ready for report. I went over what I needed to do for patient in charts, I found in doing simultaneous tasks I had errors in spelling of names. Some charts was completed, some blood work was not done. I realized when I was not working under pressure my job was done  more accurate because I was able to do everything one at a  time I was able to think things through more before doing it.
     In conclusion the article stated single taskers did significantly better than multi taskers peers. Therefore the brain works faster and more prompt when things are being planned and thought through with more time to register, process what is needed, focus is the goal and key to get better results.
