Could we know something just because we really, really want it to be true? Does wishful thinking, or having some strong desire or need for something go be true, ever justify you believing it, enough to say that you KNOW it’s true? In responding to this part, be sure to give an example of believing something based on wishful thinking.

HELP PLEASE. ANSWER WITH A BRIEF AND LENGTHY RESPONSE !

Answer:

A term that goes hand in hand with this is manifestation. I'm sure at one point in our lives we have all hoped that something would be true or that something would happen and it did. For example someone could say "If i see multiple 3's today it is a sign." and throughout the day they would see the number 3. Another example would be "Something great is going to happen to me today." and they would get a promotion at work. So in short it depends on what you believe in my opinion i believe whatever you search for, it'll find you, the number 3 didn't just start appearing out of thin air for that lady, she just noticed the amount of places that have the number 3 because she was searching, that guy didn't get a promotion out of the blue he had simply earned it. i could be wrong because who really knows the full power our minds have.
