Deduction with style & the watson factor

If you look at maybe, Sherlock Holmes or Patrick Jane, They're quite the gentlemen when it comes to style. This has always affected my brain, because I look up to these people and their intelligence, so naturally I want to dress like them. I went out in august when I was going out to pactise for the first time, I wore a pretty nice dress-shirt. It did enhance my mindset. I dressed like sherlock because I wanted to act like Shelock. It really did affect my work. I'm not saying you should do this, but it helped me a bit. Of course, you don't go over the top to have yourself thinking, what are they thinking about me or whether you look good.

A few weeks ago, I had a very good idea. I wanted to dress a little nicer, but I didn't really have the vibe to it, because I am only thirteen. I threw in a hoodie and a suit jacket into the mix. It worked quite well. I became more aware of my surroundings.

The watson factor

I first heard about the watson factor from the Youtube channel: The art of deduction. It is when you express your thoughts, tell them to a 3rd party. Even just saying them out loud can greatly improve your deductions, and skills. This is because you hear youself saying something wrong realising how stupid it sounds, and redoing the whole deduction. This also works if you've got a friend to do this with that can comment on your deductions and make you realise how stupid you were, when you thought they had their ring on their off-hand. It's much better deducing like this. Even if they're not a deductionist, they can help a lot. Look at Holmes and Watson for example. Sherlock does a deduction, John adds a comment, and even by Deus Ex Machina, it can change the whole deduction and Sherlock realizes he'd missed something.

I have some problems with this, because I don't have anyone to do this with. I won't talk to myself because everyone will think I'm a lunatic. I thought about inviting my friends. I think I'll make an open invitation. I give up on my facade and mysteriousness and invite someone.

Happy deducing!

Hi

Hello everyone. It's been a ridiculously long time. I honestly miss this sometimes. It's been over a year since I wrote my first entry. And I really miss it. I'm (hopefully starting a new blog. It's going to be my personal blog filled with rants and notes about projects. Also I'm gonna write essays around various topics. I'm trying to rid myself of any boredom I might have. For the last time... Happy Deducing!

The comparison and analysis of Sherlock Holmes and Patrick Jane

I've already did an entry on this in the past but it way too shallow. I wasn;t able to relly reflect on the structute of both characters I mentioned. These 2 characters are way different from each other, but have a surprising lot in common. Introducing: Sherlock Holmes Since he appeared out of thin air in the study of scarlet , he has been a pioneer of deduction in pop culture with over 200 actors having portrayed him. When someone asks a normie to name a deductionist They will either ask what deduction is, or say Sherlock Holmes. Holmes is a keen observer of such small details, and a really quick thinker. A lot of videos on youtube on the topic of deduction are titled something like: "How to think like Sherlock Holmes" and not "How to deduce". This is understandable, because everyone knows Sherlock Holmes, but very few know about deduction except the tax meaning. What I'm trying to say is that Sherlock, the deerhunter hat and the pipe, is deduction in th...
