1. CRITICAL THINKING IS A COMPONENT IN OUR DAILY LIVING
WE USE CRITICAL THINKING IN OUR JOBS, RELATIONSHIPS, EDUCATION, AND IN EVERY
SITUATION OF OUR LIVES.
WE TEND TO GET OURSELVES IN TROUBLE AT WORK, IN SCHOOL, OR IN OUR
RELATIONSHIPS BECAUSE OF THE FOLLOWING:
 LACK OF THINKING WHEN LOSING TRACK OF OUR GOALS
 WHEN BEING UNREALISTIC
 GIVE VAGUE ANSWERS
 MISS KEY IDEAS
 MISSUSE WORDS
 IGNORE RELEVANT VIEWPOINTS
 DON’T SEE ISSUES FROM POINTS OF VIEW OTHER THAN OUR OWN
ALL OF THIS AND A LOT MORE SUCH AS…
 JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS
 FOCUSING ON IRRELEVANT THINGS
 ASKING IRRELEVANT QUESTIONS
 THINKING NARROWLY,
 THINKING ONE-SIDEDLY
 THINKING ILLOGICALLY
 AND IRRATIONALY
 MAKING POOR DECISIONS
GET US IN TROUBLE IN OUR VERY IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIPS.
