1. Remembering
T.H Huxley, in this essay explains the fact that everyone has potential to became a scientist. He compared the working nature of scientist with ordinary people. Scientists are not born by nature but it is their quality of eagerness which turns them to be a scientist at normal condition on the basis of experience, observation and behaviors. The scientists, however perform deduction and induction in for more refined consisted and precise way yet everyday and every hour of our lives induction and deduction is performed frequently. The basic process shows the same methodology which proves all the people can be scientists.
2. Understanding
Scientific investigation is used by all ordinary man and mind of science. This is what happens when people start reasoning. There seems no difference in mind of an ordinary people and mind of a man of science.Only the thing that differs in the degree of reasoning. Though the operators of inductive and deductive in our daily lives, we begin to discover facts, sharpen by the experience, thus recollecting all the aspect to reason. It is totally wrong to say that all the mind of a man of science is constituted differently, it is indeed of this own eagerness. The natural laws states that the entire human mind constitutes of the operations of induction and deduction.
For instances, when you bite an apple and find it sour and see it is hard and green, next time hard and green apple is taken as sour one and we can avoid it. It is how precisely that you use the method of induction and deduction to find out whether the green apple is sour or not and with the method applied you draw the conclusion out of it. Scientific investigation follows the same method but in a much more delicate manner. So it is wrong to say that we don't use the scientific investigation to find out reason.
3. Applying
T.H Huxley presents his idea about the similarity between the man of science and an ordinary person. This essay tells us that general mind has nothing less than the mind of scientists. Scientists work by using induction and deduction. Ordinary people use inductive and deductive reasoning without knowing technical terms and meaning .There is no more difference mental operators of a man of science and those of an ordinary person. In inductive method we always have general laws and regulation and then we apply it to a particular situation. The hypothesis is founded on a long-term of inductive and deductive reasoning. The method and process of reasoning i.e mental operators of scientists and an ordinary man is same, general mind can surely work to be a scientist.
4. Analyzing
The work of scientist revolves around thinking deeply, analyzing and finding the accurate result while the ordinary person follows the exact procedure in their daily life but unknowingly. Scientists firstly come up with the hypothesis while ordinary people are only limited with their thoughts and never convert their thoughts into particular theorems. The ordinary people don't follows any principle, raise to perform their daily activities. On the basis of work and experience, they perform their activities while scientists with passion perform certain principle, rules and regulation and does experiment and collect data for authentic result. Scientists are trusted as their result are supported with evidence whereas general mind people are not easily trusted or believed as best evidence are not provided.
5. Evaluating
Scientists are passionate about their work and use their complete knowledge to solve certain problem while observing, analyzing and noting the answers. They come up with theorems and ideas.
Ordinary people come to conclusion that a apple is sour if it is green and hard. But for a scientist, a hard and sour apple may be green. An ordinary person may conclude any experiment after 3 or 4 tests, into one final conclusion but not for scientists. For them, it is hypothesis. They have different approach, process and deduction. The creativity or curiosity to unusually the mystery is not limited to scientist. The mind of curiosity can be equal to the mind of scientist if one can minutely observe things and explore reliable information like scientist.
6. Creating
It was my childhood dream to study Engineering. When I completed my +2 level education, I was very curious about from which University should I study Engineering. So I made a list of every Engineering colleges, did some research about them. I researched about their teaching team, studying environment, extra activities and many more. Finally, I made my mindset about a University and made my preparations to crack the entrance exam accordingly and I succeeded. Similarly all the person first analyze and research about the step they are going to take in their life. Likewise a scientist, does many research works before coming to any conclusion int their experiment.
