How learning science helps to make good decisions in life?

 In my previous blog, I wrote about clarity in life. When you cross your 30s you realize it's very important   to have 'balanced point of view' about life's issues in life.

 For instance, what kind of education do you want to give to your kids? 

We live in times, when it is clearly evident that the plausible explanations of certain matters have been settled by science. There are no questions about that. Science can answer a teenager on how to work on his or her habits, how to improve nutrition, how to avoid self-abuse, how to sleep properly and how to stay calm and composed when you face stress in life. These are not moral issues that requires certain force or stringent measures, these are certain chemicals, behaviors, patterns and habits. If you watch your patterns closely and monitor them, you can achieve anything in life. absolutely anything!

Pakistan's status when it comes to scientific literacy is shameful and embarrassing. State doesn't want you to learn science...the natural science, I am not talking about social science for a while even though I am myself a social scientist...but the state's budget for education is 2% is the mockery of education. We give more to beggars than that. for more than that. 

Scientific perspective can give you lot of data and clarity on the issues that you are struggling with. We live in exciting times, where every issue is being investigated, researched, data compiled and gathered from 360 degrees as whole. The world is reaping the benefits of human reason and rationality. 

I think the human civilization has achieved global consensus that only way to move forward is certainly the human reason and logic. The puzzling, confusing and foggy issues will be resolved if you pay attention and try to learn around you. The data is overwhelming. This is the age of data, of all sorts, of human behavior, of what we eat, of what wear, of what hate and who we elect. 

It may sound for a moment that we have become so mechanical and monotonic when we already know the human body and mind InsideOut. Human beings are no more mysterious and rare species, everything is predictable about us, there is sufficient data to provide the evidence. 




Science will keep you grounded. You will not be delusional and daydream. You will live in fantasy, but you will know what is happening with you, and you will use your fantasy in the creative process. Fantasy is useful ingredient to unlock the raw world.

The author of Harry Potter, Game of thrones and Money heist had these extraordinary ideas. The fascinating ideas that sparked thrilled. We live in times, where any idea can be presented and televised to the world. The digital world is the extension of our imagination and vivid thoughts. That has become the possibility because of science. 

Keep your thinking intact and balanced. Keep your emotions grounded. Don't be personal with anyone. Save your time and energies, you have so much to do and so much to achieve. 

The beautiful life is blessing of Almighty. We all deserve to be healthy, successful, happy and prosperous in our lives. Life is too beautiful and precious to dedicate to a delusion and fantasy. Certain idealism can only help during teenage years, when you want activism, when you want attention and when you want to make a footprint. 

Teach your kids science so that they don't trap themselves in deadly obsessions, violence, drugs and inhumane unacceptable acts, the influences are many.
