The very implementation of the natural sciences into my life has resulted in me looking at life and obtaining knowledge in a more reliable, logical and objective manner. As a result, I feel that one can understand oneself better through the usage of the natural sciences in order to obtain personal knowledge. As Thales, the Greek Philosopher once said "The Most difficult thing in life is to know yourself". One cannot understand fundamental truths about oneself by the usage of mundane characteristics such as emotion or intuition, as many would agree. Hence, something more subjective and concrete is required. And this is where the natural sciences come in.
For instance, after a tiring sport program, I know that I feel exhausted because my muscles have been overworked for long periods of time, and hence ache. This conclusion is needless to say, quite reason-based, and is something most everyone could draw out. Rare is the person, if any, who would attribute the exhausted feeling to something emotional or a reason besides the tiring exercise. Either way, to me, the reason I get tired is not something I spend restless nights over. It is a simple conclusion that I have been able to make since I first learned about the human body, and maybe even before. As a result, minor ideas such as this play little to no role in my life due to the fact that I use only one factor in understanding the bodily symptom of exhaustion: that of reason, which is the principal factor that the natural sciences employ. Hence, through this self-exploration, I have seen that the natural sciences help me to easily make decisions and possess reliable, accurate knowledge that I can unquestionably believe in.
