Critical thinking is not about being a negative ninny! Critical thinking is about being able to judge fluff from facts. It’s the ability to stand back and discern what’s real and what’s hype.
Critical thinking helps you to stay safe, keep more of your hard earned money and increase your confidence and courage.
Start practicing critical thinking skills with these top 5 steps.
1. Keep a level of doubt. If you think you know the answers no new and relevant information can present itself.
2. Evaluate options. Don’t take the easy way or worry that investigating other options will make you look ungrateful, cheap or pushy. That’s just being smart!
3. Demand the evidence that supports the claim. We are in a world of photo shop and over inflated testimonials. A true claim provides authentic documentation and evidence.
4. Keep your emotions in check. When thinking critically watch the tendency to get swept away by emotional triggers instigated by those who’s product or service may not stand the critical thinking challenge.
5. Understand that critical thinking is not for everyone. Critical thinking is NOT for those who buy into the free lunch, the get rich quick or magical thinking.
I believe YOU have the ability to think deeper and more clearly than the world would like for you to believe. But for those who want to manipulate you into becoming a “Sheeple” I have a message!
Wake Up, Stand Up & Snap Out of It!
