True by definition, literally "saying the same". Pointlessly obvious. Additional words that add no meaning.
"Either we'll get in trouble, or we won't" is a logical tautology. By including all possibilities the statement must inherently be true.
In "PIN number" the word "number" is a tautology because a PIN is always a number. (At least that's what the N originally stood for — if the term PIN evolved to include letters someday then PIN number would no longer be a tautology.)
In "morning sunrise" the tautology is "morning" because sunrises are a subset of mornings; removing the first word removes no meaning. (The addition of "morning" may be aesthetically more pleasing, in a poem for example, but it remains a logical tautology.)

Get the Titology mug.TIMOLOGY is any combination of phrases, statements or words for Psychology based on explanations in which Tim Rogers (a real licensed psychotherapist) has single handedly created or more likely overheard from somewhere in the ethos of life, but for whatever reason, the original orator lacked the wit required for long lasting legacy status.
These statements, phrases and words, words, words are Tim's personally enhanced versions of well established psychological explanations of what may or may not be going on for us all inside our noggins. As we all continue our fearful yet courageous pursuit of remembering our true Selves.
Thing is, with timology, each explanation gives particular emphasis to a play on words or turn of phrase, even a double or triple ontondra! This significantly differs from the more definitive diagnostic or empirically measured and therefore more "clinically valid use or definition.
IN OTHER WORDS, TIMOLOGY IS MEANT TO GENUINELY HELP OTHERS REMEMBER THAT THEY HAVE THEIR ANSWERS WITHIN THEM SELVES. THEY JUST NEED SOME HELP/SUPPORT/GUIDANCE REMEMBERING THEM SELVES FROM TIM(E) TO (TIM)E.
