About Thinking
Thinking. What does thinking mean? It means reflecting upon, and
analyzing the different aspects of a situation or a condition or
any issue. This needs time. How many of us think? Why should we
think? What are the issues about which we should think? If you
are a medical professional. Do you need to think about politics?
If you are a computer professional. Do you need to think about
stars? If you are a housewife? Do you need to think about the
petroleum prices around the world?
Our thinking -
What should be our areas of thinking? Do not many of us waste
their time by thinking about issues that don't touch their life
at all? We are all given limited time during a day. We only have
so many hours and we have to manage time in such a way that we
get maximum results that help us. Getting results in areas that
don't help us, are of no use. Same applies to thinking. The
question -what should I think about needs an answer to - What
are my priorities in my life. If this year my priority is to get
a promotion then, I need to think about the ways I can get it.
If this year, my child is getting into a college, my priority is
to know more about college life and think of ways to make him
more comfortable in the college and help him get better results.
Everyday, we know about our priorities and we have to direct
thinking towards that. For example, you may love thinking about
astronomy. But if your spouse is in the hospital fighting a bad
disease, your priority is to learn more about that disease and
think of ways to make your spouse recover faster.
Breaking old patterns -
Many of us have developed patterns of thinking and we don't get
away from these patterns even when required. This is wrong. We
have to think about what we should think. That is our first job.
And to know about that, we have to have life goals, divide them
in small time frames and achieve them one after another. Our
thinking has to help us doing that.
What should we think about -
Thinking about issues that lead to a happier life for us and
help us achieve our goals is the correct way of thinking and
investing time in that. To invest time thinking about poverty in
the world, if we are ourselves running short of money will not
help us. But if we think about the ways we can make more money,
that will help us surely.
