Hierarchy of Rethinking Styles

Inspired by an Instagram post created by @adamgrant.

What kind of thinker are you?

What phrase do you often hear yourself saying:
"I might be wrong?"
"That might be wrong?"
"You're all wrong?"
"They're wrong! We're right."
"I'm always right!"

The way you think has a dramatic effect on the way you perceive and interact with the world around you.

So, understanding what kind of thinker you are and what biases you may be subject to (with or without you knowing) is super important to ensure you remain centred, make the most out of life and make more informed decisions along the way.

Thanks to Adam for sharing this super insightful chart - based on his most recent book, Think Again.

It's another book that waiting on my reading list - hopefully I can get to it soon. I love Adam's podcast WorkLife, it's always packed full of amazing insights and inspiration.

Just check out this paragraph from his website about this latest book:
"In our daily lives, too many of us favour the comfort of conviction over the discomfort of doubt. We listen to opinions that make us feel good, instead of ideas that make us think hard. We see disagreement as a threat to our egos, rather than an opportunity to learn... The result is that our beliefs get brittle long before our bones."

If this doesn't resonate with you - you're in the wrong place! 😅

What type of thinker are you?
Let me know in the comments below.

I like to think I'm a critical thinker, but being I sometimes like the challenge of being a Contrarian; but I agree with Adam, I think we need "more people who think like scientists... or at least more critical thinkers".
