Chapter 3 Myths

Chapter 3

""Everybody does it" The equation that goodness equals weakness for cynical acceptance of cheating, or "cutting corners" as an understandably human practice at all ages and places..." (Janaro & Altshuler 2017)

The statement is absurd in its logical soundness at times but has a backing in its effectiveness as it uses a group mentality that expands what an individual does based on what is observed of others.
Even if it puts the individual in a bad position it can be used still as observations of others might allow one to learn how to get out the possibility of the negative consequences of the thing that "everyone does"

""It must be fate." Also called destiny, fate plays an important role in Greek mythology and is one of its major legacies" (Janaro & Altshuler 2017)

Fate is a very strange concept as I do believe without Greek mythology it would not be a very prominent and talked about as Greek mythology ingrained the idea of a fate existing rather than a free controlled existence or a predetermined existence without a higher invisible power trying to tie people to real life events. Fate is a force that brings similar events or events that go together well to a single point in space and time. Much is attributed to space when some believe that all is predetermined no matter what we do and all is mere chance, if you believe in that too.
