The act of thinking is a strange phenomenon. So mysterious in its own way, yet so important. Considering its very nature of being strange and important at the same time, the people today are confused. Such confusion brings ignorance.

The Human Brain

The human brain is an architectural masterpiece; it is considered the most important part of the body for a good reason. Amongst many of its functions, the mind is responsible for our thoughts. It is not by chance that the most powerful part of the human anatomy is responsible for the all-important thinking process.

Man is by birth a profound and creative thinker. The capability of being logical differentiates humans from other living beings. Strangeness, pointed out earlier, is evident in the fact that the significance of the thinking process is easily undervalued, keeping in view that the most basic activity a sane mind can perform is to think. The more one realizes the potential of thinking, the less strange it becomes to ponder.

A Move Towards Wisdom

Thinking establishes the foundation of a person’s whole personality; moreover, consider it the first step toward wisdom. If the first hurdle is not crossed, the results won’t be effective in the long term. In today’s fast-paced transforming world, humans are busy as ever; such busyness means that time and effort is very limited for reasoning. Daily household chores, workplace responsibilities, and raising children is more than enough to tire people for good nights of sleep. In-case minuscule amount of time is available, masses add entertainment to the daily menu. To sum things up — in this day and age people are observing, listening and feeling less than ever.

The vital process that gets underway with reasoning gives rise to questioning, and is thus a symbol of intelligence and confidence. Expressing doubts bring a breath of fresh air in the society conveying that the community observes, listens, and feels. The evolution of the thinking process depends upon this transformation from thinking toward questioning. Further, it must be ensured that inquiries are encouraged and properly answered, as seeking a satisfactory reply is a phase in which a questioner is vulnerable to self-assumptions, self-questioning, and dispiritedness. It is unquestionable that doubts are remodeled into knowledge at this point, but is contingent upon efforts of both the questioner and the respondent.

Solving the Puzzle

Self-questioners attempt to solve puzzles by themselves, and mostly do not put a question to the people around them. For every matter in question, a balanced amount of self-questioning in conjunction with external research and queries is utterly crucial; so that a well-founded conclusion is arrived at. There are major factors that exert influence upon the conclusion attained from self-questioning; indeed, these influences comprise of literacy rates, quality of education, culture, all forms of environment, stage of life of the individual, and personal attributes. Accordingly, if self-questioning is either relied upon in full or not at all, it will certainly provide a route to an ignorant conclusion.

Why bother so much? Why is it all of great consequence? Think — the objective of all these prior mentioned efforts, concerning the thinking process, is inspiring individuals to be in possession of thought out, well-grounded, and structured opinions. Everyone everywhere has many opinions, but do these opinions come into existence in adherence to the hierarchy of the thinking process? Race with time entangles people into having opinions without thinking and questioning. The credibility of these opinions is questionable.

The World of Today

Whatever is evident today, the world we see, is the outcome of actions people have performed individually and collectively. The actions of the majority shape the globe. Is it not ideal that every action performed is motivated by an optimal opinion? There is no place in society for any action that is in contradiction to any stage of the complete thinking process.

It all starts with thinking. A thinker leads, and not follows. Just a mere thought can sow the seeds of actions that the world cherishes. The power of thinking is the biggest asset humans have. Compare that with actions having the biggest impact on humans, and the world we live in. A critical question must always exist in each person’s mind: Are we using our biggest asset effectively to create the biggest positive impact? Think! It all must start with THINKING.
