Description
Want to improve your decision-making and problem-solving skills? Then look no further!
Have you ever made a snap decision, confident in your choice for a moment, only to look back on it a few hours later and realize that you could have taken a better path?
Perhaps you're someone who acts impulsively, or maybe you're often too quick to reply, and you sometimes look back at a conversation and wish you'd said something different.
Or maybe you simply want to sharpen up your decision-making skills so that you can get ahead at work or improve your efficiency.
Whatever the reason you're investigating the idea of critical thinking, you have the only tool you're going to need if you want to excel at it: Your brain.
To think critically is to use your brain strategically to understand, analyze, and make decisions based on the information you have available to you.
It's about being able to find that information from what you hear, see, and experience, and use it to come to a firm conclusion.
This is something you can train yourself to do -- even if you're completely new to the idea of critical thinking or you have a history of leaning on impulse and instinct... and this comprehensive beginner's guide to critical thinking is here to show you the ropes.
Inside, you'll discover:
• Exactly what's involved in critical thinking -- and the key skills you'll need to draw on as you train yourself up
• The difference between critical thinking and creative thinking... and how these two skills complement each other
• How to use critical thinking to make better decisions and mitigate your biases
• Common barriers to critical thinking (with the strategies you need to overcome them)

And much more.
If you're concerned that your mind isn't logical enough or you're too impulsive to improve your evaluation and analysis skills, think again!
No matter how much you've struggled with critical thinking in the past, you can train your brain to become an incredible tool for effective decision-making and problem-solving.
