Abstract: Mathematical concepts profoundly influence our worldview and decision-making processes. This article delves into how the Bayesian theorem, Poisson distribution, and Fourier transform find applications in everyday life, thereby revealing the deep life philosophies behind them. These theories not only explain scientific phenomena but also provide frameworks for personal decisionmaking, guiding us on how to update beliefs, seize opportunities, and understand complex issues from different perspectives.
