-
(=) .The difference between logical thoughts and lateral thoughts.
-
' .There was once in a small village a farmer who owed an important sum of money due to be repaid to a very ugly old man.
-
- .The farmer had a very pretty daughter that the old lender was sweet on, the lender proposed a deal:
-
.He said he would annul the debt if he could marry his daughter
-
.the farmer and his daughter were horrified about this proposition
-
.So, the old lender suggested hazard should determine the outcome of his proposition.
-
: , He told them he would put two pebbles one black and one white in an empty money bag,
-
, And, the daughter would pick, without looking
-
. ..One of the two pebbles.
-
1) , . 1) If she picks a black one, she must marry me And the debt to her father is eliminated..
-
2) , , 2) If she picks the white pebble, she doesnt have to marry me and the debt is also eliminated
-
3) , 3) If she refuses to pick a pebble, her father will go to jail
-
While speaking, the old lender leaned forward and picked up two pebbles.
-
As he was picking them up, the daughter with a sharp eye
-
, Noticed he had picked up two black pebbles and put them in the money bag
-
., . - But, she said nothing.
-
The old lender asked the daughter to pick a pebble out of the bag
-
This discussion was taking place on the road in front of the farmers house and the road was paved with pebbles
-
. Imagine for an instant what you would have done.
-
; What would you have suggested the daughter to do?
-
, 3 : If we analyse the situation, there are 3 possibilities :
-
1) 1) The daughter refuses to pick a pebble
-
2) 2) The daughter picks out both pebbles revealing the old lender cheated
-
3) , . 3) The daughter picks out a black pebble and sacrifices herself by marrying the old coot and saves her father from emprisonment
-
. Take a moment to reflect on this situation
-
.....
This story means to illustrate a point..
-
(=) The difference between logical thought and so called lateralthought.
-
The daughters dilemma cannot be resolved equitable manner
-
- By traditional logic
-
. Think of the consequences of each of the three possible options.
-
, ; So, what would you have done ?
-
: Here is what the young woman did :
-
, , She plunged her hand in the bag picked a pebble and, clumsily, dropped it on the ground
-
, before it could be determined wheter it was black or white, it mixed with other pebbles on the ground
-
! ! , ....Ah ! Gosh! I sure am clumsy, said the young woman.
-
: ....But no matter: if I remove the other pebble from the bag .
-
. ;..We will know which pebble I had picked first dont you think?
-
,Since the second pebble was black,
-
.The first had to have been white
-
,... The old lender didnt dare announce his cheating, .
-
The young woman transformed a seemingly impossible situation
-
- ..Into a very advantageous ending !
-
: Moral of the story:
-
, .A solution exists for most problems
-
. , .Its just that we dont always know how to examine every angles of the situation
-
