Our grand children were visiting us.They said"grand ma they love magi with #sweet corn in it."
I said "while coming back from office I will bring #sweet corn from grocery store and sometime I will make magi with sweet corn for you". On my way back from office I came to grocery store and bought corns.I saw packet of corn on bench of grocery store.It was under concession list.I bought packet of #corn and kept it in my kitchen store.
I was busy with my grandchildren visiting nearby #gardens for morning walk.In evening sometimes we will go for #ice cream get together.It was big fun.
It was Sunday .I thought let me make magi with #sweet corns for my grandchildren for breakfast.I opened packet of same and I at once realized this definetly is not sweet corn packet.I wish I had checked with grocery store people.
Further research revealed that this corn packet is of different quality called #field corn.
From this incident I realized how my initial assumption about #sweet corn was a #mistaken identity by my brain.
My human brain used my intuition to make rapid #judgement about sweet corn.That was my system 1 thinking,as defined by #Nobel laureate(2002) Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky.System 1 thinking is fast and intuitive and therefore it can be riddled with #human biases. It showed up when I made instant judgement about #sweet corn.
If my brain would have acted with system 2 thinking(as defined by noble laureate Daniel Kahnema and Amos Tversky) which is slower analytical, where brain consciously collect evidence evaluates option and make decision would have been different. My decision when I bought #sweet corn was with help of #unconscious system 1-fast thinking not slow thinking.
I had used slow thinking process I would have examined if it was sweet corn or #field corn or some other variety corn.In this process the #unconscious system 1 thinking instincts would have influenced my # conscious system 2 thinking.
Main point is the core concept of #sweet corn comes into my brain from intuitive system(system 1 thinking) .
Question is why did I think that corn packet is sweet corn ,part of answer is "context' the different element of situation and their relation ship to each other, I did not go deep into #context.Finally a corn packet which was assumed sweet corn by my brain when purchased from grocery store, when opened was recognized as field corn..The main point "context" sweet corn is #illusion.Actually when examined with help of(system 2 thinking) of my brain it was found that corn packet was #field corn.As it is rightly said one should not evaluate book with"book cover" but if one is involved with #system 1 thinking,then for book is "book cover".

Moral-If one is involved with #system 2 thinking(slow thinking)as defined by noble laureate Daniel Kahnema and Amos Tversky)then for book is #not book cover.
One Good Life -Three Paramete
In co curricular activity class my student Krishna asked me "madam! is path of #good life that simple"
One student said "it depends on one's #resources madam"
I said could you please explain with simple example.Suppose there are two individuals A and B.A has internet facility available at home.While B has to make lot of #efforts to avail same.
A through resources of internet can attend on line classes to learn high technology techniques,like knowledge of hard ware used in computer.If A wishes can learn #programing also.Another important parameter which A should have is #willingness and ability to learn same.A Has to take out #time from his busy schedule to do same.
Another individual B who has to make lot of effort to avail #internet facility can still develop simplicity in life.It is another thing B can not enjoy life like A.
B can enjoy simple #inexpensive things like reading,writing,simple #sketching skill. B can make supportive friends,can listen to good #music and travel by public #transport. B does not require lot of money for his enjoyment. B has #simplicity in life he has lot of #time at one's disposal.
Another student concluded and said" one must assess one's #time,#ability and #resources to lead simple life."
I said yes dear students,but then next question is the extent of overlapping of all three parameters with each other.The more there is #overlapping among above mentioned three parameters #more simple life one can enjoyI said as student of mathematics
I will put forward the formula to lead simple happy life as follows
Intersection of three parameter Time, Ability and Resources leads to simple life.
Let us put it in mathematical equation
Let TIME intersection ABILITY, be equal to X
Let ABILITY intersection RESOURCES be equal to Y
X intersection Y =simple good life.
Intersection of three domains Time,Ability and Resources can give one good life.
