Critical Thinking Benefits Communication Skills

-

Usually, I come across situations when I feel like expressing my thoughts either verbally or in writing but not able to do so effectively because I am not able to form the right chain of thoughts that leads from one to another and create an effective narrative of the idea I intend to express.

Having tried several ways to improve my speaking and writing skills, I came across this video which explains what 'Critical Thinking' is. Delving deeper into this, I find that this is the skill that one should have for improving communication skills both verbal and written.  



So I thought I should share my thoughts on this topic with the hope that somebody with similar needs as mine might be helped by learning the subject of critical thinking and applying it to improve their communication skills.

Love: More Than a Feeling—A Powerful Verb in Action!

-

  This story, based on lessons from '7 Habits of Highly Effective People' by Steven Covey, teaches us about love—not just the romantic feeling we often hear about but love as something we choose to do. Sajid and his wife Fatima’s   journey shows us how love can be transformed from a fleeting emotion into something much deeper. Love can seem like a mystery, like something that just happens. We often talk about "falling in love" as if it’s something that takes control of us. But what if love is more than just a feeling? What if it's something we choose and act upon, even when the feeling isn’t there? Here’s a story and an idea that challenge us to see love differently—not as a feeling we wait for but as something we actively do. 1. A Troubled Relationship Let’s start with a story. There’s a man named Sajid. He’s been married for forty years, and he’s starting to feel disconnected from his wife Fatima. One day, he confides in Steven after attending his se...

The Dawn of a New Pakistan: A Story of Paradigm Shift and Global Inspiration

-

It was the year 2026, and Pakistan was at a crossroads. Decades of political instability, corruption, and mismanagement had battered the country’s economy. Unemployment was soaring, inflation had hit the common man hard, and mistrust in the political system was at an all-time high. The same old faces kept cycling through the corridors of power while the country's youth grew disillusioned, feeling like mere spectators to their own nation’s decline. But deep in the heart of Karachi, a paradigm shift was brewing, one that would forever change not only the course of the nation but also inspire a global movement. A New Generation of Thinkers It began with a small group of young, forward-thinking Pakistanis. Among them were Ahmed, a data scientist with a passion for artificial intelligence; Sara, a political analyst disillusioned by the status quo; and Kamran, a social activist determined to give a voice to the underprivileged. Each had watched helplessly for years as corruption and inef...

Transforming your Mindset with NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) Strategies

  What is NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming)? Imagine if there was a tool that could help you understand how people think, communicate, and make decisions. That's essentially what NLP is. Neuro-Linguistic Programming is a blend of psychology, communication techniques, and self-development strategies that help us become more aware of how our mind works and how we can make better use of it. Let’s break the term down: Neuro : This part is about our brain and nervous system. It’s about how we process information through our senses—what we see, hear, smell, taste, and feel. Linguistic : This focuses on language—how we use words and how they affect our thinking and behavior. The way we speak to ourselves and to others influences how we experience the world. Programming : This is about the patterns and habits we have—how we "program" ourselves through past experiences. If you think of your mind like a computer, NLP helps you reprogram it in ways that se...
