If we often question whether that we are told is true, we can find the correct answer and learn more. Several days ago, our teacher offered us an answer to a difficulty math problem in class. Although an answer seemed a little strange, but only I doubted it. I thought of his answer might be wrong, I carefully considered the problem and tried to work them out in a different way. Half an hour late, I finally managed to find the correct answer. When I showed the answer to him, the teacher praised me for my independence thinking.
From this experience I had already come to the conclusion that questioning can serve as a bridge where helps us find the truth.

Building the thinking habit is important because it helps you live with a purpose. How can we build the thinking habit? Here are some tips.
Be curious
Curiosity is powerful. 1. It also helps you recognize the ideas when they come. Curiosity is an important attitude to have in building the thinking habit.
Read widely
If you want to come up with good ideas, you need to feed your mind with good ideas. 2.This will give you fresh, new ideas. Don’t just read from the fields you are familiar with. Read from other fields as well.
Read actively
Not only should you read widely, but also you should read actively. Find some ideas and think about how you can use them. My favorite way to do this is by highlighting the book I read. I will then put the actionable ideas in my idea journal (笔记). 3.
Keep an idea journal
When you find a good idea, don’t just keep it in your mind. Instead, write it down to catch the idea. 4. Keeping an idea journal makes you more sensitive to new ideas. You will quickly recognize them because you already have the habit of catching ideas.
5.
Of course, it doesn’t do you much good if you just write down ideas. Take time to read these ideas every now and then. In my case, I mark the ideas that I consider important and review them regularly. This often opens the way to new ideas.
A. Design your own ideas
B. Go over your ideas
C. In this way, others can also benefit from your ideas.
D. One way to do that is to read.
E. Otherwise, the idea might be gone forever.
F. It makes you like finding new ideas.
G. This helps me get the most out of the book.
