Insight Into How We Think: The Thinking Wavelength

Each of us naturally thinks in a certain way—the way in which we order our world, tolerate change, and juggle variables. No one way of thinking is right and another wrong. But it is helpful to know how we are inclined to think (as well as how others are inclined to think). The way that we think may or may not be similar to our spouse, supervisor, co-workers, children, and employees as we engage in tasks, conversations, decision-making, or problem solving. If one’s thinking matches their job expectations, work is highly productive and successful. If it doesn’t, frustration for all those involved most likely exists.
