The quality of our lives is determined by the quality of our thinking. The quality of our thinking is often determined by the quality questions we ask from ourselves. Critical thinking is the art of asking relevant, necessary, and meaningful questions to discover the objective truth behind words, events, and opinions in general.

Critical thinking is the ability to think objectively and rationally about a particular situation without letting your emotions hijack you. Like any other skill, critical thinking can be learned through rigorous practice and commitment.

Today, we have more access to information than ever before. Information influences our worldview and decisions, often without us noticing it. Following wrong idols can lead us to bad decisions that lead to unhappiness and a dissatisfying life. When what’s “right, beautiful, successful, and cool” gets dictated around us by ads and through “influencers”, we often forget to think for ourselves and make our own choices. Thus we make bad decisions based on the opinion of others - not even our own.
