Thinking is the ultimate cognitive activity, consciously using our brain to make sense of the world around us and decide how to respond to it. Unconsciously our brain is still thinking and this is part of our cognitive process but is not what we normally call ‘thinking’.
Our ability to be creative and imagine possible futures. As an extension of reasoning, this becomes less certain but still lets us think about what may happen and how we can influence this.

Our brain is mysterious, as we go we can remember a memory from a year back with some reference. “Connecting the dots”.

However, when we respond, we notice how we are feeling, and we consciously decide how we will respond.
