How to Be a Thinking Person
Why do people not know how to think? Every human on this planet has a brain, therefore they are able to think, yet they don’t. There are a lot of people who do stupid things all the time; you can probably recall a few examples without having to strain your memory.
So why do you think it is that people do not think? Is it because they don’t know how? What is the main factor between thinkers and stupid people? Would you agree that it is those who accept responsibility for their actions are the ones who think?
By law, when a person becomes eighteen years of age they are legally responsible for their actions. Yet so many times you see people blaming others for their mistakes. Like the criminal who blames the police that they are in jail. They can not reason that they committed a crime, and so are paying the price; but instead it is the fault of law enforcement that they are in jail. It seems that those who will not accept responsibility for their own life are the ones who are constantly making mistakes and blaming others.
So since you become legally responsible at a certain age, is there a certain age when you should become a coherent conscious thinker? When exactly should a person know how to think? Is there training involved with learning how to think?
Like the young child who must be taught to look before crossing the street, and then escorted across until the parent observes the correct behavior, should people be taught to be conscious thinkers. The key to being a conscious thinker is to accept the fact that you and you alone are responsible for your own life. You must acknowledge that you make the choices that direct your life in a certain direction.
So after you have discovered that it is you who determines your actions, you can begin to think for yourself. You realize that by your thinking; you cause your life to happen. So with further thought you begin to control your life, and will your self to accomplish things that others, quite frankly, never think of.
It would too late to learn this once you are dead. As long as you are alive it is not too late to become a conscious thinking person. Like an asteroid that has been determined to hit the earth, when it is far away, it takes a very minor course correction, a tenth of a degree, to cause it to miss the earth by millions of miles. As the asteroid gets closer it takes greater course corrections to cause it to miss, a larger effort to get the desired results
So it is with you. It is easier to control your life if you make the discovery and decision to be a conscious thinker when you are young. It takes less effort to make the changes needed to make your life what you will. When you are older and become a conscious thinker it takes more effort to make your life to be what you will. The point is; once you become a conscious thinker you can make your life as you so will.
So make the choice, take responsibility for your self and become a conscious thinking human being.
Be Blessed.
