Insights from Life Sessions (ETA): Discovering the Strength of Analytical Thinking
The life class gave me a chance to slow down and reflect on how I process my thoughts. We examined two ways our minds function—one quick and reactive, the other slower and more deliberate. It helped me recognise the difference between automatic responses and thoughtful decisions.
I also got clearer about the differences between belief, opinion, and fact. That’s something I hadn’t thought deeply about before, and now I’m realising how easily we confuse them. Biases play a huge role, too, often without us noticing.
Watching The Truman Show added another layer. I saw how routine, fear, and outside influence can quietly shape our choices. It made me think about whether I’m questioning things enough—or just going along with what feels familiar.
Overall, the class pushed me to be more aware of my thought patterns. It’s not just about knowing concepts—it’s about seeing how they show up in daily life, and deciding for myself what’s worth rethinking.
