Thought

Thought and thinking are mental forms and processes, respectively ("thought" is both.) Thinking allows beings to model the world and to deal with it effectively according to their objectives, plans, ends and desires.

Words referring to similar concepts and processes include cognition, sentience, consciousness, idea, and imagination.

Thinking involves the mental manipulation of information, as when we form concepts, engage in problem solving, reason and make decisions.

Thinking is a higher cognitive function and the analysis of thinking processes is part of cognitive psychology.

""Never be afraid to sit awhile and think."
~ Lorraine Hansberry"

About rwoman

I have come to terms with my Squidoo addiction at Squidooholic by taking the Squidoo Pledge! But being a Squidooholic can't be all bad as it helped me become a Giant Squid on May 2!

I also manage nine groups now and am especially proud of one of my newest groups honoring the Cream Of Squid!

I celebrated my 1st anniversary as a lensmaster March 11, 2008, but have been writing and publishing on the web since 1999.

I am a Renaissance Woman aka Rwoman because I have a wide number of interests. You can learn more about those interests on my lenses: Deanna Mascle and Who Is Deanna Mascle

You can learn a lot more about how I have shared and promoted these interests here on Squidoo by checking out the lensography of my lensographies at the RWO Lensography and help me chart my Squidoo progress at RWO Squidoo Stats. Find my main Squidoo page at Renaissance Woman Headquarters. Last month I passed the 100-lens mark which is a big achievement! This month I'm working my way toward 150...

I am fortunate that my two chosen career paths--teaching and writing--allow me to pursue my various interests and help others by parlaying my expertise and interests into my internet business as an infopreneur. I write about many topics but they all have one common element -- they help people live better lives. Sometimes I simply entertain and inform with trivia while other times I educate and motivate with my self improvement lenses. I also write about family and money as well as marketing and writing.

My featured lenses:

What's Wrong With Big Media?

Bill Moyers

Pursuit Of Happiness

Mohandas Gandhi

FRONTLINE


I have spent my entire adult life working as an educator and professional writer. Currently, in addition to my work as an infopreneur, I teach writing for Morehead State University in Kentucky and am working on my PhD in Rhetoric and Technical Communication at Texas Tech University. I am married and have one son.
