INTUITIVE THINKING
Intuitive decision –making is far more
than using common sense because it
involves additional sensors to percieve
and get aware of the information from
outside. Sometimes, it referred to as gut
feeling, sixth sense, inner sense,instinct,
inner voice and spiritual guide.
INTUITIVE vs RATIONAL
THINKING
Intuitive thinking must rely on feeling,
feelings which are often scary, muddled,
and confusing. While the rational mind
can come to a sound conclusion by
“gathering the facts”–an external process–
the intuitive mind must make an inner
journey into the soul, must become
vulnerable and open to insights whose
conclusions rest on the foundation of an
inner sense of trust.

THREE TYPES OF THINKERS
1.Uncritical
Persons
2.Selfish critical
persons
3.Fair-minded
critical persons
UNCRITICAL PERSONS
The Naive Thinker: The person who

doesn’t care about, or isn’t aware
of his or her thinking. Naive
thinkers don’t develop their
minds. They don’t want to be
bothered with improving their
critical thinking skills.
Here's the voice of the Naive thinker.
I don't need to think. I understand everything

without thinking. I just do whatever occurs to
me to do. I believe most of what I hear, most of
what I see on TV and mostly everything I read
on the internet. I don't need to waste a lot of
time trying to figure things out. If I need to find
the answer to a problem, I just ask someone
else. I mostly go along with what everyone
else is doing. I do what I'm told, keep my
mouth shut. Thinking gets you into trouble.
Selfish Critical Persons
The Selfish Critical Thinker:

The person who is good at
thinking but unfair to others.
Selfish critical thinkers are people
who use their thinking to get what
they want without thinking about
how their actions affect others.
Here's the voice of the Selfish - thinker.
I think a lot. It helps me get what I want. I

believe whatever I want to believe as long as it
helps me to get what I want. I question anyone
who asks me to do what I don't want to do. It
helps if you tell people what they want to hear,
even if it isn't true. You only get into trouble
when you tell people what they don't want to
hear
Fair-minded critical Persons
The Fair-minded Critical Thinker: The

person who is not only good at thinking,
but also fair to others. The fair-minded
critical thinkers work to improve their
thinking skills. They think to become
better at making the world a better place,
and they want to be fair to others.
Here's the voice of the Fair-minded
thinker.
I think a lot. It helps me learn and figure
things out. Not only do I want to
understand the thinking of other people,
but I want to understand myself and why
I do things. In order to understand other
people, you have to look at their situation
and think about what you would feel like
if you were them. I want to help create a
better world for everyone.
