Critical Thinking
Title of Paper
Critical Thinking is a huge aspect of daily routine , jumbling the brains outlook on multi-
ple ideas and opinions to grasp a balanced solution. Critical thinking is our minds ability to make
decisions based on judgement and aspects of particular detail. When it comes to this specific type
of thinking we tend to depend more on our intellectual thought processes. This process pulls from our opinions , emotions , and basic reasoning in order to discover the solution we have been
seeking out. t. These traits are essential to developing constructive thinking skills
.
. I believe when it comes to the basic barriers of critical thinking we tend to push the re

sistant aspect more because we want a certain outcome. Pulling from our past experiences and pushing more into our analytical brain I believe we could control our barriers rather than letting them control us. The most interesting concept I have come across throughout this weeks topic was that we are our own worst enemy , I believe we tend to drive ourselves even if we lack con

E
lements of Critical Thinking
. Emotions are a self dictator they stem from depth and expression which potentially cause us to influence our social reflection. Throughout this scenario sally was presented with multiple conflicts in emotion which caused her to pull from self thought in order to build a cause and effect scenario . Sally was positioned to hear viewpoints of people who tend to relate to her

but rather than finding a common ground sally was faced with disagreement which created a bar-
rier leading to her built solution. Communication is our only way to express with reason or emotion but throughout our communication we are able to create a solution to our problems as well as express our thought. Communication can become a debate which sally experienced as she fought to extend the war-
ranty in favor of her customers. Sally did not chose to follow the crowd but rather become to leader. Sally separated herself from potential mishap within department disputes as well as stood her ground and created a new solution for warranty extensions when her first fell through. Sallies
critical thinking skills developed an outline for good reasoning as well as possessed traits that dictated the barriers rather than overshadowed her. Reasoning becomes the most important aspect inside of potential emotion. Sally places herself into the customers position allowing her to get a better insight into the issue at hand creat-
ing a common ground with her costumer rather than allowing for a disconnect through personal and professional reasoning. Sally chose to act off of emotion as well as demonstrate a quality of communication throughout her process. Sally creates a path of listening and acting which holds every ground for good technique through her reasoning , emotions as well as communication. Fallacies become a misconception because they tend to be folded and overlapped. Throughout the scenario sally encounters a basic argument . Sally is presented with a disagree-
ment in departments as well as a disagreement in warranty extension and her place to pitch the idea. Sally pitched an argument that pushes relevant data as well as emotion based opinion. Sally
possess grounds for a valid argument potentially forcing her hand in idea as well as relationship .

sion. The closing paragraph is designed to bring the reader to your way of thinking if you are writing a persuasive essay, to understand relationships if you are writing a comparison/contrast essay, or simply to value the information you provide in an informational essay. The closing paragraph summarizes the key points from the supporting paragraphs without introducing any new information. Communication became the highlight shadowing each process with personal and professional aspects and opinion. Argument held its ground through shadowing reason as well as developing a relatable outlook. Overall the scenario created an analysis that included each aspect equally giving insight into how critical thinking is processed in daily routine.
