NOTE

 Hi. It`s bben six days since I said I was going to post more, so here I am. I`ve deduced more & more in the pat few days. Haven`t made any ground breaking descoveries yet, but I`m looking forward to it. I`ve been deducing less body language and more of the other stuff. I`ve been looking at the whole attire wich I think is wrong but it give kind of an aesthetic about the person I`m deducing and gives me something to build on. I`m making profiles on more people. I`m beginning to move away from that beginner stuff and focus on the harder ones. I run out of ideas a bit faster so I thing I should practice some more of the beginner`s stuff.

 Alright I think i`ve got some explaining to do. I haven`t been writing this because of school and I`m really busy. This does not mean I`m not deducing, I am, but a moderate amount only because I keep forgetting and I`m not meeting any new people and I basically only rely on nonverbals wich I don`t think is too good for my deducing 'techique', wich hasn`t been going so good I basically forgot a lot of things about all the other sources I gather info from and I only rely on body language wich is supposed to be my last resort when it comes to it.  I read "The dictionary of body language" by Joe Navarro and it was a very fun and useful read for a deductionist like me. I do not know if too much body language is healthy but I try to get info from other sources. Maybe every deductionist has to create their own style of deduction for their specific personality. If it`s that I don`t know maybe I have already created it and I don`t know or I don`t have the experience and capac...

I`m back baby

 So, I haven`t written anything here in a while. It is not because I lost interest in deduction, but because I was lazy to go out and find subjects to bractice on. Now I`m in school again and I meet other people so I have some opportunity for practice. Practice I did. I have told you guys about the reddit page, but now I can work on live subjects. I have been working on how to get observation and deduction as kind of an instinct. It works, but only a little. I have preety much abandoned my old mode of work, witch I am planning to get back to, and got to just deducing what I can. I usually deduce these things age primary hand work/study income pets partner body language baseline I do deduce some other things, but these, I always try to do. I`ve gotten better with rooms but not with people. I am working on improving with people because it is a very useful skill to have. People have warned me not to do this hobby, because it`s none of my business or it creates bad predations, but I ig...

Mode of work & where I`ve been

 So. I`ve been practicing for some time and I`m overall satisfied with how I`m doing. I`ve gotten way better at body language. Now I can deduce people I know and overall deduce better. I`ve found that I can get a decently hard deduction sometimes, people`s occupation. That, just very loosely.  I haven`t written here because I went on a kayak race and had a little break after.  I`ve been doing these deductions for around a month. What I am good at is getting people`s: income, primary hand and age, also IF they`re a  tourist or not, also some cues from body language: who they like, don`t like maybe even if they`re lying or not. I`m still having some trouble in observation but practice makes perfect. Wait, let me correct myself. Practice makes conscistent, not perfect. I also found the subreddit: r/deduction. They post things you can deduce. I couldn`t really deduce them because they`re usually too high level for me. How I work: Basically how I learnt to deduce from dif...

Practice

 I went out on the streets today with my friend to try to tead people. Because my friend didn`t want to walk aroud on the same spot and she had to go places, we split up. She went home and I continued my practice. I had to keep in mind one thing. Mor specifically a quote from Sherlock Holmes. " One shall not twist facts to suit theories but rather, theories to suit facts." I walked around casually and sat down on some benches. I went to drink tea at a coffee shop later. My deductions  I got the usual. I mainly looked for the primary hand and age. I started guessing the jobs of people, what they were doing etc. I think I got them accurate. For example there was this one guy around late 50`s walking around, screaming in his phone from his stride he wasn`t hurrying anywhere but from the stressful screaming and it being a workday I concluded he had a stressful job, like a salesman or a banker. Ialso noticed on tourists that they have veins on the back of their legs. The cause of...

What is going on & problems

 It is early August. That means there are a lot of tourists. Basically tourist season. Beacause I have to prctice everywhere I go, I deduce people. Usually with passing deductions, but when I go on the field just to deduce, that is going to change because I`ve been planning to go out in the city just to try to read people. When I`m doing these passing deductions I usually go for the simple stuff, like primary hand and field of work, relationships between people etcetera, very simple stuff. Lately a frequent question appeared: Are they a tourist? A lot of times I can answer that question based on the clothes and smell and they`re usually in groups. Trust me you can tell. I have a problem. Not just one, a lot. I come to realizations that I am not actually that good. I can`t read non-verbal cues or observe nor know what to look for. All I can read is attire and that not very well either. That is why I need to study people and practice. The bad thing is that I don`t know what means wha...

I`ve been writing a "book" & had a fun deduction

 So, for fun, I started writing a book. It`s very Sherlock Holmesy. I got my own little twist on it by adding some attributes from The Mentalist. That is because in my three favourite shows there is both BBC Sherlock AND The Mentalist. The third one is The office but the no. 1. I implemented some, but not so much of my attributes.  It is basically a blog. The personal blog of Timothy Coates. It plays after he went trough a rough break-up and starts to solve crimes (or document them) with his roomate and friend Arthur Cene. I`ve already got some of the first case where a machanic is killed because a client that robbed an ATM left some of major evidence against him in his car, that he gave to the machanic for surveillance. I`ve got he majority of the part before the first case.  Also I`ve been planning to go outside into the city today because I want to practice some of my methods. Speaking of methods, I think I can read clothes now. The method I basically about checking th...
