    If this method is true, how is a person with an absent mind doing some of the work or doing actions that ordinary people do daily? For eg: eating, going to bed, watching TV, having a shower, and brushing your teeth. dressing, and so on? Is that because of experience and knowledge? I assume that it is because of instincts. Instincts are qualities that come to every person and animal at birth. I do agree that knowledge and experience do play a part in living beings but his genetic values are more crucial and strong.

    Locke says we are born with a clean slate. This does not mean it stays that way. Through repeated experience we learn stuff. (By the way, modern psychologists do not believe in the clean slate hypothesis any longer, but it is still a good assumption when doing science).
