Why don’t people think logically?

In September 1995, whole India was mass mesmerized  and was offering the milk to Lord Ganesha.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindu_milk_miracle

Then in 2006, Hundreds of people flocked to Mahim beach after reports of sea water turning sweet spread all over the city. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/People-taste-sweet-sea-water-in-Mumbai/articleshow/1907898.cms

Again in somewhere in 2012, Jesus wept and people made the crowd to get the tears in bottle. http://www.firstpost.com/living/why-jesus-wept-in-mumbai-the-church-versus-the-rationalist-538657.html

And there are many more news.  

There are people who invest  their hard earned money in the Ponzi schemes expecting huge ROI, which is always impossible. There believe on stories and go behind people who are much more smarter than them. Same thing is in multi-level marketing and try to become rich immediately.  They don’t think logically, why anybody will buy their product (say magnet mattress of Rs. 1 lacs)? Why somebody will buy products which are almost 10 time costlier than other products.

If you go in detail, you will come to know that only promoters have become wealthy on the money of investors.     

Then, there are incidences, where people believe on fishing mails like lottery, job and fake password change notification from banks and end up losing their money.

People who are victims are not illiterate, most of the times, they are educated including doctors, engineers, lawyers, teachers etc. What make them to believe on such mad and weird things.  

The question is why they don’t think logically? Why don’t they ask questions on the authenticity? Such frauds and scams are nonsense and people believe this nonsense.  In essence, people believe nonsense because it serves a psychological purpose. Everybody wants to be rich very fast, want to be successful.  In this process, they don’t even think on what is right or wrong for them.

It is always better to show a simple common sense and think logically on such matters.

Internal Specifications of Personality

We know human beings are complicated and personalities are more complicated to understand.  Every personality has specifications. External specifications like physical appearance, look etc. More complicated are internal specifications. Internal specifications include different ego states, behaviour, mindset, attitude etc. 

Internal specifications are the engines to drive the person and he behaves, acts based on the orders programmed or conditioned as per the internal specifications. These internal specifications are programmed in the mind. It is very interesting to understand the person in totality.

Relatively stable pattern of behaviours and consistent internal states that explain a person's behavioural tendencies. These stable patterns are foundation of personality dimensions.  But we always see what our mind wants to see. This is called as a perception. The combination of personality traits & knowledge base generates Perception in minds of people about the person. These traits are the part of internal specifications.  

Following are some of the examples of internal specifications of personality.

Talents: A recurring pattern of thought, feeling or behavior that can be productively applied. We always refer talent with brain. But talent is the right result of thought process and behaviour at the right time for the right results.

Attitude: An attitude is a hypothetical construct that represents an individual's degree of like or dislike for something. Attitudes are generally positive or negative views of a person, place, thing, or event— this is often referred to as the attitude object.  (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attitude_(psychology))

Thought process: Talent is the driver of thought process of the person.

Conscientiousness: Conscientiousness is the trait of being painstaking and careful, or the quality of acting according to the dictates of one's conscience. It includes such elements as self-discipline, carefulness, thoroughness, organization, deliberation (the tendency to think carefully before acting), and need for achievement. It is an aspect of what has traditionally been called character. Conscientious individuals are generally hard working and reliable. When taken to an extreme, they may also be workaholics, perfectionists, and compulsive in their behavior. People who are low on conscientiousness are not necessarily lazy or immoral, but they tend to be more laid back, less goal oriented, and less driven by success.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscientiousness)

Emotional Stability: How the emotional state of mind is.

Openness to Experience: This trait is the characteristic of person where he shows the flexibility and the degree how he is open to change and new experiences.

Agreeableness: Agreeableness is a tendency to be pleasant and accommodating in social situations. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agreeableness)

Introversion and Extroversion: These are the traits of personality where you can find out the ability of person to deals with others. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extroversion)

  

The question is when we speak about the specification; it should be in certain unit. Unfortunately in personalities we can not measure the units in absolute numbers.  

Your “psychic ability”…

“You are psychic. You should have foreseen the issue.” One boss was firing his sub-ordinate on one issue. Bosses always expect something without making expectations clear. Subordinate was also arguing with the boss and boss did not like the argument.

“Everyone is psychic sir. I am psychic, but you also are a psychic. Still you are firing me without understanding the issue and reasons behind the same.” subordinate answered.

“What do you mean, everybody is the psychic? Don’t forget your year end review is in next month” Boss blasted.

“Sir, what psychic means? It means supernatural, it means extrasensory. If we consider the fact that we have analytical skills, we also can foresee the problems and take action to resolve the issue and develop the psychic ability.”

“Hallo, analytical skill is different, psychic ability is different. If you think that you can find out the solution, go and find out the solution.” Boss laughed.

We have conscious and subconscious mind and most of the time subconscious mind gives you some messages. You take some decisions base on some messages. We do not analyze the data objectively always. But still you are successful. Great businessmen use this power. Somebody may call it “intuitive” thinking.
