English term

reality thinking/un-reality thinking

English to French Other Management Management
Another thing to do is make sure we are using REALITY thinking instead of UN-REALITY Thinking. That’s the kind of thinking that takes a situation and creates all kinds of un-realistic and usually negative perceptions about it. Here are some common examples of UN-Reality thinking:

(..)

Magnifying: This is amplifying the degree or intensity of a problem, like saying that “this will RUIN everything!” In reality, it might create a few problems, but is it really likely to RUIN EVERYTHING!?

Mind Reading: This one happens when you assume you know the reasons why others act as they do. You don’t know the reasons, unless they tell you, so don’t jump to conclusions. Making assumptions has created many a disaster in history.

@Asker Thanks for changing the Main heading.
Marion Delarue (asker) May 31, 2015:
Construction / Civil Engineering Sorry, it was a mistake...
Daryo May 31, 2015:
Construction / Civil Engineering / Management

it does make sense, although "management" [more accurately "decision making"] applies anywhere, not only in Civil Engineering - no classification is perfect ...


kashew May 30, 2015:
Construction / génie civil ?? Not good headings!

pensée basée sur des faits réels / pensée basée sur des faits supposés

the point is to make the difference between using proven/real facts and unverified assumptions as a starting point for your thinking.

I don't see how to create in French a similar pair

pensée basée sur des faits réels / pensée basée sur des faits non-réels ?

agree Joco : Difficile en effet de créer une opposition aussi "punchée" en français, mais votre proposition rend bien le sens.

Pensée consciemment réaliste /Pensée consciente

Les Paroles ci-dessous posent quelques-unes des Bases
de la Pensée Consciente:

Le Secret est l'Acceptation.

L'acceptation de tout ce qui m'arrive.

Ainsi que je le veux, cela m'arrive.

Je suis 100% responsable de tout ce qui m'arrive.

Je suis mon seul et unique Bienfaiteur.

Je suis mon seul et unique bourreau.

Personne ne peut avoir de pouvoir sur moi,
si, par mon attitude, je ne l'y autorise pas.

Mon Bonheur est en moi.

Mon Bonheur est complètement indépendant
du monde extérieur.
Peer comment(s):

disagree Joco : Je ne vois pas l'opposition

Pensée réaliste / Pensée non réaliste (ou éloignée de la réalité)

Reality thinking is the discipline of seeing things as they are and not as they might appear to be. So we can assume that we are looking into the opposition between thinking of something as it really appears (as it really is, exists etc) and something that is not faithful to reality (think about an Iceberg for example).

As mentioned in the previous post, it is hard to find such a pair in French.

But in this case anything such as :
Pensée réaliste/Pensée non réaliste (ou éloignée de la réalité)
will do.
