The greatest power that we humans possess is the power to think. This is what makes us different. Cogito ergo sum is the philosophical principle which emphasises that one’s existence is demonstrated by the fact that one thinks- we think, therefore we exist. I think, therefore I am.
The famous French philosopher and Mathematician Rene Descartes, known as the father of Modern Philosophy built this theory beginning with the one thing that he knows to be free of doubt, and that is thought process. Senses can lie or manipulate but to entertain doubt is to have thoughts and thoughts lead to existence. He also proposed that the mind and body were two separate and distinct entities, but even the body was not so certain a thing as the mind, because, like every as far as our mind lets us.
Remember, what we believe, we can achieve. Never give up and have confidence in whatever you do.
