How to think like sherlock holmes












Am I dumb, was the question I used to ask myself in my primary schooling. Basically I had no idea or a benchmark of smart people in my head. Until I watched Sherlock Holmes, and things changed, for better. Sherlock Holmes is an inspiring fictional character, built around a sociopath, leaning towards abnormal activities to gain grits of a super absorbing mind.










Being a Sherlock is no cake walk. You need to have sharp focus with almost by birth gifts of observation. Wrong. You can be a detective and to some extent as profound as Sherlock, if you inherit some basic ground skills.


            


             A detective is someone who connects dots and solves a crime which was done by criminal in a swift and latent manner. You reach from one clue to a conclusion and then to another clue. It's more like a series of a string, once you start pulling by one end, it reveals itself with time, required you have the grits to do so.






How to think like sherlock holmes






















As from insights over internet i found two major conclusions which are :-



the very first thing we'll be taking care of is, Observation. While you're in public, be it some park or your classroom, anywhere, try to focus on a person at a time, note how they talk, what kind of clothes they have and every minute details you can grasp. Now try to connect dots, like a short man with a 5'10 of height looking little nervous using metro to travel and probably going to the second next station because it seems like he is going on a date, which is important for him, shows that he's desperate as he might recently had been through a breakup or may be he's not so good at getting girls. Observations like this are wild guesses in air, but you got to start somewhere.

Next thing we focus on is, conclusions. After having a set of observations, you need to connect the dots and fill the gaps of puzzles. It is important not to jump over conclusions, and rather have a transparent mentality. Like take our earlier example, if he's nervous, it must be because he thinks the girl is out of her league, so that makes rock solid the fact that the girl which we don't even know about, is quite beautiful. Second his age is around 26 and still he's using a metro for his date, that means he's trying to cut on expenses, but since the girl is beautiful enough to impress, he must have been taking her to a nice and costlier place and that's the reason he's trying to cut bucks over transportation which won't matter to her. 

Conclusion and observation, practice them over and over again and you will surely master the art of being smart. As smart as our fictional yet popular Sherlock Holmes.

Why one must see "into the wild".




























    Why one should prefer 'into the wild' movie in a must see list.  I watched "Into the wild" two years ago, fragments and glimpses of which still remains in me like a child unwilling to settle down.     The movie begins with a young man named Christopher Mac'candelles sleeping recklessly on the floor of a train. A soothing tone sets the beginning and conject the bright scent of memories, which one will have after finishing the movie based on the novel with same name.                Chris goes through a troubled childhood along with her sister. He finds most of his solace in characters of the books he read. Residing with his not so settled parents, on verge of divorce, he never had any dream of living a normal life.  After completing his college, Chris sets on his expedition to wild Alaska. His favourite book being Walden by Henry David Thoreau, taught him numerous lessons which he paraphrases during the movie.  He then meets few people who imprints a mark on the...

How to keep a conversation going on.




























             We humans, communicate in our own linguistic way, which is converse to that of animals, who use symbols and emotions to do so. We have this ability to share our emotions with each other by speaking certain specific words and gestures of our hands.    As you are reading this, so you find it difficult to make long conversations. Or keeping them going on.    Why it is tedious to prolong quality conversation ? Making the conversation long is difficult because half of the time we overthink about stuff i.e if I said something, he/she will react to it in a certain manner and that leads to an awkward silence. It disturbs us, and so do our further conversation, we begin to contemplate about what he said and rather than listening, we are busy preparing our replies. Humans have a tendency to transverse thinking while talking, i.e. something else will always dribble in our head while we are talking about a totally different issue.            There are certain aspects to improve commun...
