Induction vs. Deduction: LEARN the ULTIMATE Thinking Skills from the Scientific Method & Philosophy!
Induction and Deduction are methods of reasoning and when we look at their structure we approach them from the viewpoint of mental models, where we essentially take a subject and objectify it so that we can manipulate it in our minds more effectively and apply it across disciplines. As we hone our definitions of what inductive and deductive reasoning are, we are developing razor-sharp thinking skills that lay at the heart of Science and Philosophy.

The Eisenhower Decision Matrix is a time management mental model that helps us make the best use of our available time by categorizing the potential demands we may face for the use of our time. The decision matrix was popularized by Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People book and is ultimately based on a quote from Dwight Eisenhower where he says, "I have two kinds of problems, the urgent and the important. The urgent are not important, and the important are never urgent."
