Running Head: MURPHY’S LAWS 1

Murphy’s Laws
MURPHY’S LAWS 2

Murphy's Law is a combination of various proverbs and wise sayings among artistic

works relative to this genre. The overall title of the art is enclosed in a general phrase 'If anything

goes wrong, then it will". Others include "Nothing is as simple as it looks," and finally,

"Everything takes longer than it should." The above Murphy’s statements are considered to be

vague and ambiguous. This is according to Dawkins, a writer of such genres. He argues that

Murphy primarily focuses on inanimate objects. Its application is, therefore, ultimately infeasible

in real life. The sayings look obsolete because, in reality, everything can never move in the same

direction corresponding to a mere idea. In a system, actions and pressure applied trigger an

equal opposite reactive force to counteract the change.

Numerous concepts can be put in place to overcome the themes of this trite maxim.

Since the Law is related to humanity and mainly influenced by personal understanding and

outlook of the entire context, deployment of varying and different laws can work. This is a very

effective way students can overcome the impacts of these themes in their daily routines. Seen

from Arthur Bloch, Yhprum's Law, which diverts Murphy's meaning into a better and exciting

say. That is, “Anything that can go right will go wrong.” Such corollarial setups and styles

depicted by other writers bring back the anticipated mood, interest, and contextual

comprehension of adages. The complexity of the proverbs gets transformed into simpler

understandable, and applicable forms.

Ever since Murphy’s laws lounged, there has been an exponential growth of more people

overlooking positive results but dwelling so much on the negativities of the sayings. Since we are

living in a hyperbolic world, where things are considered "good' or "worst" about our daily

routines like jobs, skills, games, and experience. It is, therefore, a great concern to ensure the

appropriate application of traits of resilience, flexibility, and fortitude to overcome our reactions
MURPHY’S LAWS 3

to deal with these times. Conclusively, I support Dawkin’s postulates that render the laws vague

and nonessential. Human beings are very flexible and actively dynamic that should never be

compared to static inanimate objects which posses’ desires of their kind.
