Critical Thinkers - Where Great Stories Meet Critical Thinking
Watch incredible stories learn critical thinking. Distinguish what's true.
For years I used to have a lack of critical thinking myself. I used to believe many things which had little evidence or truth behind them. These beliefs led me to decisions which did not turn out to my favor. Eventually I discovered critical thinking and changed my life for the better. Now I choose what I believe in with much more care. Make better, more informed decisions and enjoy the results. Yet many people fail to separate true information from false. That’s why I created the Critical Thinkers channel.
If you want to hear some incredible stories and learn critical thinking at the same time - you're at the right place!
In this channel you will learn what is critical thinking, various critical thinking skills, find critical thinking exercises, learn how to use critical thinking in a debate, learn about the best critical thinking books out there, find critical thinking tutorials what results a lack of critical thinking has and much more.

    You should research the replication problem in academic papers. All the scientists you are talking about are probably as phony as Robbins. There’s no such thing as a science of happiness. Can you measure it with a tape measure?No. Can you weigh it on a scale? No. Science cannot measure something that relies on personal testimony.

    This is not the "truth" about enlightenment, and on a channel dedicated to critical thinking, putting such a title on a video contradicts the very pursuit of the channel. You fell into the materialist belief-trap, materialism the idea that our reality is reducible to particles, that matter is the fundamental substrate of reality, and that our conscious experience is produced by the brain. This worldview has been falsified and is on its way out. For more information, look into the work of people such as Bernardo Kastrup, Donald Hoffman and Thomas Warren Campbell.

    You go into the importance of proper training and regulation for yoga instructors, but the physical trainer market is just as unregulated, and any half decent PT instructor will readily tell you about all the awful injuries you can give yourself in the gym, and help you adjust your workout if you have an injury that should be worked around. IMO it's more of a culture thing.

    Hay, quick thought that's sort of unrelated but... Have you ever stopped to wonder WHY Atheists DON'T WORSHIP SPACE AS A CREATION GOD? I mean, think about that one logicly for a moment. When I was 16 years old, I LOVED SCIENCE CLASS and I even read my science book for FUN. Biology and geology were FASCINATING to me and I read a TONE of sections on both subjects. Biology stated that to be classified as a living being you needed brain cells or cells period. If anything lacked cells it was considered "nonliving." Rocks for example didn't have cells. They were made of atoms and molecules only, so they weren't alive. Space too wasn't seen as having cells because it was made of a mysterious non living substance called "Antimatter". As I learned in Astronomy. Atoms were believed to function like "microscopic computers" that ran on a set code unless altered by some outside force, like wind or animals. These "computers" NEVER CHANGED THEIR PROGRAMMING ON THEIR OWN. This was why rocks stayed still and never changed shape unless an outside force moved or cracked them. Like a person picking up the rock and carrying it someplace else. All of this made sense to me and sounded highly scientific. But then I found "The Big Bang Theory" and "Evolution" and they DID NOT MATCH UP WITH THE REST OF THAT BOOK AT ALL. One sounded like "mythology" and the other like "magic". Evolution COMPLETELY IGNORING The BIOLOGICAL ELEMENTS of INNER BREADING. Making it look like lizards could have LIVE BIRTHS with mammals, biased on the OBSCURE IDEAS that everything was "related". But that's a tangent for another day. Getting back on topic, simply put, The Big Bang either claimed that "The universe created itself because it had to, or it was a giant computer program that was programed to create life." Meaning in that first definition it was THINKING LIKE A LIVING BEING. BUT! Anti matter DIDN'T CONTAIN CELLS or BRAIN CELLS to allow space to THINK. So my FIRST QUESTION was "How can a non living things think unless its SPIRITUAL? The definition of a creation god is commonly something like this. "A being who created the universe and life, by choice, instruction of other gods, or by accident that people worship." Like Ra from Egypt who created the Earth and mankind according to some ancient Egyptians. And while I know no one is worshiping SPACE for "The Big Bang" the REST of that stuff DOSE APPLY HEAR. "The Universe created life." "Creation gods create life." So even if space WAS ALIVE, then wouldn't it count as a CREATION GOD? That's scientifically ridiculous! And don't even get me started on the other "Big Bang" idea that says space was programed like a COMPUTER to make life. That goes against the stuff we know about how NONE LIVENING THINGS CAN'T PROGRAM THEMSELVES. Computers need a HUMAN TO BUILD AND PROGRAM THEM to funchion. WE chose how the computers function biased on what WE program into them. We can also change the programming of atoms and molecules by means of atom splitting, chemistry and other methods I forgot how their done. But again WE HUMANS have to make those atoms CHANGE because they cant change their own programming on their own. AI's even require US to build them FIRST before they can funchion. So my second question is "If space is a huge computer WHO PROGRAMED IT?" And going back to that "Creation god" definition, wouldn't the programer of space COUNT AS A CREATION GOD TOO? Frankly from my understanding THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A GODLESS WORLD. Science CAN'T EXPLAIN EVERYTHING in a FULLY SCIENTIFIC MANNER or this "theory" wouldn't point to "A CREATION GOD OF SOME SORT". So if SCIENTISTS BEST THEORY LEADS TO A SPIRITUAL BEING WHO MADE US ALL, then why think SCIENCE is ALL theirs is in our world? This doesn't seem logical to me. But that leads to the question of WHAT GOD CREATED US? Because some god had to with THAT in mind!

    I don't have a big need for O'Sensei's spirituality, because I am Roman-Catholic and I already know to serve and gain favor from God, the Saints, Guardian Angels, and Mary the mother of God. O Sensei may have known some good spiritual practices or effective prayers without being a Christian. Hopefully he didn't get help from Demons though, who are fallen Angels.

    Of course Aikido is an incomplete Art for modern Self-Defense. I still like it though, but I already learned Strikes and Kicks from my Karate and Ninjitsu Training (my Trainer was a Tang Soo Do / Hapkido / Karate / Jiu Jitsu black belt). Aikido techniques are similar to what I learned in Ninjitsu, just a bit less brutal (eg. in Ninjitsu we locked the Arm of the oppenent on the ground with our knee instead of the hand, so we had hands free and could roll over the arm and break it if needed). Now I train Aikido because it's good, but I know I need to also know the missing parts (strikes/kicks/wrestling).

    I don’t think he does anything wrong, and his teachings have helped me with some things. I listen to several people for inspiration, but it doesn’t mean that I take everything they say as absolute truth. I take what resonates with me and let go of what doesn’t. For people who are truly connected within, none of the mentors will be able to do harm. At the end of the day, wisdom is within us, and we just need to take time, connect, and listen. Also, not everything can be proven by science and still helps. I just think the author of the video struggles with his own life because if he didn’t, he would led by example and instead of criticizing others, help people to truly heal. Emotionally healthy and secure people don’t need to put others work down…

Tony worked with Oprah, Bill Clinton, all elites of the freemasonry. Sorry, but look up what they do, what is freemasonry, there are some good testimonials on UA-cam. No wonder, Tony is so successful, he gets al the help he needs from these people. It is difficult to believe this, but it's the truth. Did somebody check if people really get these free meals he is giving ? I hope there are other awake people like you Rokas. Nadine

    Really love and resonate with this. A lot of people are hesitant to say what you’re saying but I definitely agree. I have a very similar story as yours with practicing the other aspects of yoga - meditation, breath, yamas & niyamas etc. and the asanas came much later. Fast forward, have been practicing yoga for about 10 years and 5 years in martial arts I have continuously found the importance of studying more and more anatomy and physiology and a more evolutionary approach to the physical aspects of yoga (on top of the spiritual practice) and it began to make A LOT more sense.

    I think the whole new age culture, which Robbins is apart of, gets you to look outside of yourself. The real power is always within you - if you access your own heart space, that’s where you connect to your soul. That’s the only thing you need in this life, yourself! Too many ‘spiritual teachers’ and ‘gurus’ are too readily available and making loads of money in the process - they should all be saying ‘the answers lie within, access your own heart space’, they wouldn’t sell any books, any large venues, any course etc. Call me cynical but it’s the truth 💜 xx

    Great video. Yoga is absolutely one of the least effective ways to get flexible, be spiritual or relax. Most yoga instructors have little to no understanding of what the body actually needs to be healthy or stress free or fit. I've been an exercise therapist for 23 years and when I started doing yoga about 3 years into my career (for my own health goals) I realized how cultish and elitist and just physically wrong it is. I left studio practice shortly after starting and just practiced online with various well known yogis and that was o.k. but only because I knew exactly how to modify every single sequence and every pose because of my functional training background. Most yoga instructors have zero clue how to modify anything for their students. After doing a ton of research more recently I also learned that the yoga brought here around the 60s is really just a form of European calisthenics that hardly resembles the yoga that originated in India. This is why I also do not teach yoga but I do incorporate the most useful poses into bodyweight workouts that help tons of people get fit, healthy and relieve stress. Nobody in America teaches actual yoga that is a fact!
