We often wonder why this or that situation happens, why various incidents happen all over the world. Thus, we have the ability to build conjectures. What exactly is the meaning of this word and how often do we allow ourselves to draw conclusions based on speculation? And yet, is speculation an important part of human life?
Meaning of the word
Let's first define the meaning of the word itself. So what is conjecture? This is often an unsubstantiated conjecture, an assumption and, as a result, unfounded conclusions.
Very often the word "speculation" is confused with exact facts. In that case, what are facts? This is already confirmed information. After all, there are even many phrases, such as, for example, "stating a fact", that is, its statement. By saying "in fact", a person thereby makes it possible to understand that the information is accurate and correct.
Facts and speculation differ in that they have different levels of credibility. For example, you don't really believe a person who just assumes without any reason, right? And when youdescribe or exemplify clear facts, you are more likely to trust.
Conjecture is, as already mentioned, just thoughts that arise on the basis of what you see or hear. In no case should one be guided by speculation alone, because they are erroneous with a probability of 60-80%.
Role in human life
Unfortunately, there are quite a lot of people in the world who are not accustomed to trusting the facts, listening only to themselves. Many families, friendships and even business relationships collapsed on such soil.
Agree, it shouldn't be like that. Any speculation simply must be confirmed by some fact, so that a person is convinced of its authenticity.
The worst enemies of a person in a relationship even with himself are speculation, mistrust, overprotection and pride, among other things. Therefore, it is necessary to understand any problem, not guided by mere guesswork.
