Human action and behavior is very complicated and is the result of a vast number of factors. Religion, laws, culture, traditions, learning, and education play a role. The bottom line purpose of all human action is self-interest, though. Whatever the ultimate combination of all these factors has determined, an individual’s interest becomes the deciding factor for the action or actions. Even the most pious and charitable so-called selfless acts are eventually determined by self-interest. This is confirmed in many scientific, behavioral, psychological, and physiological studies.
The debate in scholarly circles is usually about which factor or factors must influence your behavior more than the other or others. The simplest and the shortest answer is it depends on many factors and circumstances. A split-second decision to avoid death, injury, or accident is going to be made very differently than a decision on marriage, treatment, or planning a career path. Regarding the decisions that must be made quickly without any time for thinking, you will solely rely on your instincts and reflexes. For example, avoiding an accident on the road while driving is essential.
Many decisions regarding your spouse, children, parents, siblings, close friends, and some neighbors might be influenced mainly by love. On the other hand, planning, starting, and running a business or job, buying a home, and selecting a car mainly depend on preferences, budget, convenience, look, comfort, and reliability.
When people say that every decision must be determined by intuition, love, or logic, they probably have no clue about what they are talking about or are entirely cut off from reality. “I feel like this or that” is mostly ignorance or stupidity. Overstressing the value of one over the others is also a potent tool for politicians, media gurus, and so-called experts.
An intelligent person rarely falls for these stunts and scams. Smart people know that each contributing factor plays a relatively different role in every decision-making process, depending on the other factors, situations, and resources. People who run families and businesses know this, especially those with limited resources.
It is either too much or too little of the required resource or resources, which may tip the balance in favor of one factor or the other. For example, suppose you are running a business and cannot afford a qualified and skilled person. In that case, you may go for a less competent and less experienced person or may choose to do it yourself regardless of your level of qualifications and skills in that regard.
Entrepreneurs, creators, innovators, inventors, writers, and scientists often credit their cutting-edge discoveries, moves, strategies, and ideas to intuition, dreams, and imagination. Statisticians, data analysts, mathematicians, executives, and managers often credit their success to logic and intelligence. Sometimes, you must go with your intuition, imagination, and even dreams in everyday life. But logic, reason, experience, learning skills, and training work best in routine.
Feelings are important in love and hate relationships. However, they can be highly deceptive and are primarily the result of wishful thinking. They do not confirm or contradict the natural world’s desires and needs.
Accidents and “just “happenings are also attributed to fantastic work. Certain things are definitely beyond our perception, awareness, and senses. But those are highly unpredictable, and counting on them is very difficult and irrational.
Scientific experiments show that the sixth sense and ESP exist, but the role these play, up to what extent and with what limitations, is largely unknown, at least in modern literature.
Mendeleev, the creator of the periodic table, wrote, “In a dream, I saw a table where all the elements fell into place as required. Awakening, I immediately wrote it down on a piece of paper.” Famo “sscientists.org.
On the other hand, Alfred Russel Wallace developed the “evolution by natural selection theory” after” a hallucinating fever. It seemed like a credible idea then, but evidence is mounting that the theory no longer holds water besides mild environmental modifications within species.
August Kekule got the idea of a Benzene molecule in a dream, leading to Aromatic Chemistry. Time has shown that although valid, the idea was crude, and significant refinements were needed.
Srinivasa Ramanujan produced almost 4,000 proofs, identities, conjectures, and equations in pure mathematics in his short lifetime. “Famousscientists.org. “Ramanujan said that the Hindu goddess Namagiri would appear in his dreams, showing him mathematical proofs, which he would write down when he awoke.
Rene Descartes built the framework for the scientific method after a dream.

1. Never accept anything as accurate until all reasons for doubt can be ruled out.

2. Divide problems into as many parts as possible and necessary to provide an adequate solution.
3. Thoughts should be ordered, starting with the simplest and easiest to know, ascending gradually, and, step by step, to more complex knowledge.

4. Make enumerations complete and reviews general so that nothing is omitted.” Famousscientists.org.

These methods, particularly skepticism, are turned upside down by taxpayer-financed modern scientists, especially if the idea comes from the government. They only show rigid skepticism when the idea does not fit their government-financed paradigm.
Otto Loewi dreamed on two successive nights about an experiment that would show the chemical transmission of nervous signals, which confirmed the theory. He also dreamed about the Nobel Prize, which he later received. Famousscientists.org.
Louis Aggasiz could not classify a fossil, but he could do it after having a dream for three consecutive nights. Famousscientists.org.
So, dreams do provide a pathway to scientific discoveries. On the other hand, discoveries like Microwaves, Quinones, X-rays, Radioactivity, Velcro, Sweet’N Low,’ the pacemaker, LSD, Play-Doh, Penicillin, Viagra, Insulin, Vulcanized Rubber, Corn Flakes, Teflon, Super Glue, Safety Glass, and Vaseline are credited to accidents. ScienceAlert.com Except for Sweet’N Low,’ all of these were very beneficial.

Whatever the source or solution, it must ultimately confirm the logic. Nothing acquires validity without confirming the logic, which is the gold standard. Contradicting logic based on feelings and other uncertainties is absurd and invalid in natural science. Your reason could be faulty, evidence could be misleading, and data may be misinterpreted, but not the logic.
