Knowledge: from observation to ideas

Knowledge is everywhere. Knowledge is information, and it can be gathered from literally anywhere. This information, this knowledge, can be obtained anywhere you look at, or use any other sense. That’s why it’s said that observation is a way to get information by the use of the senses and sometimes (introspection, or some sort), the [...]

Creativity: it’s about taking care of your ideas, concentrating and time

Once people on different places talk about creativity, I always wonder if they have really thought about it. There are thousands of tips online. How to be creativity, they say.

The Circle of Knowledge

…A little explanation on how we work along with knowledge.

That little seed, we’re going to suppose, is on [...]

Think different: Define the Simple

One of the keys of philosophy is to be able to define the simple. To say “a table is a table, has 4 legs, you can put things above, write on it, use it for…”. But, have you actually done that? Ever? One of the things I like to try is to think different (Ironically, [...]
