Chapter 4 -- TYI -- Inferences

What follows ?




When a person infers, they are: imaging, guessing, predicting, and concluding. Inferences are often confused with facts.

Inferences should always be checked against the facts for accuracy and to make sure you are not inferring incorrectly. This chapter’s goal was to make us more conscious about our inferences. We should state the obvious as much as possible for this will help us in distinguishing facts from inferences.

Internal distracters come within yourself, like being preoccupied with something else, being worried about your finances or having excitement of an upcoming event. External distracters come from the environment around you
