Epistemology is the replacement of philosophy that deals with knowledge. This is essentially a branch of study of knowledge and belief. In epistemology there are three ways of thinking, namely:
- Rational : A mind that act and do things within their consideration of the human mind. The point is rational action based on consideration of the good and for a good purpose. As something that is reciprocal of what we've done.
- Example : Someone should learn earnestly if you want to get good grades.
- Logical : Something that is acceptable to our minds and in accordance with the logic of our minds.
- Example : I think that the money cannot grow if we do not try.
- Empirical : Something done by us through experiences that have occurred.
- Example : I get bad grades last week. Then weeks now I have to get good grades.
There are three streams contained in epistemology, namely:
- Empiricism : Flow refers to the senses.
- Example : As we feel the pain in our skin.
- Rationalism : Flow saying that the intellect is the most important thing in our lives.
- Example : I thought about the rest of my money.
- Positivism : Thinking of reason and already know the truth.
- Example : I think if the money was there.
Sometimes we are confused by the difference in a positive positivism. So I will explain in my knowledge about the positive sense.
Positive thinking is a reference to our psychology, in theory, we are taught to think using mental and our minds.
