Critical Thinking Strategies For Success

My thinking process is something I have actually thought a great deal about. I often wonder why I think the way I do and about the things I think about. I tend to overthink everything. I think up the worse possible scenario for the simplest things. I would like to improve my thinking process. According to Paul, Elder, Gunther, Chartrand, Emery, Hall, and Maketa (2007), "excellence in thinking requires a variety of independent skills and traits that work together" (p. 57 para. 5). To improve one's thinking, Paul et al. suggest emphasizing on fundamentals and starting slowly.
