1 Assess your current level

The first step to improve your critical thinking skills is to know where you stand. You can use various tools and methods to assess your current level of critical thinking, such as online tests, self-evaluation questionnaires, feedback from others, or reflection on your past experiences. The purpose of this step is to identify your strengths and weaknesses, and to set realistic and specific goals for improvement. For example, you may want to improve your ability to identify assumptions, arguments, and evidence, or to avoid logical fallacies and cognitive biases.

This is interesting because we can use critical thinking to eliminate this problem. The first question we need to get an answer to is "Where are your skills now"? There are many ways to gauge this, like taking online quizzes, filling out self-assessment forms, getting input from friends or colleagues, or simply looking back at your experiences. This initial step aims to help you see clearly what you're good at and where you might need some work, setting the stage for you to outline clear, achievable objectives for growth.

2 Seek new sources of information

One of the best ways to enhance your critical thinking skills is to expose yourself to new sources of information that challenge your existing knowledge and beliefs. You can do this by reading books, articles, blogs, podcasts, or videos that cover different topics, perspectives, and disciplines. You can also join online or offline communities, groups, or courses that foster critical thinking and discussion. The key is to be curious, open-minded, and willing to learn from others. You should also practice active listening and questioning skills, and seek feedback and clarification when needed.

3 Apply critical thinking to real-life situations

Another effective way to improve your critical thinking skills is to apply them to real-life situations that you encounter in your personal or professional life. You can do this by using a structured framework or model to guide your critical thinking process, such as the RED model (Recognize assumptions, Evaluate arguments, Draw conclusions) or the Socratic method (Ask questions, Answer questions, Ask more questions). You can also use tools and techniques such as mind maps, SWOT analysis, pro-con lists, or decision matrices to organize and evaluate information. You should also document and review your critical thinking outcomes and reflect on how you can improve them.

Practice makes perfect. Enhancing your critical thinking skills can also be achieved by applying them to everyday situations in your personal or professional life. The Socratic method (continuous questioning for deeper understanding),can guide your thinking. It's beneficial to record and revisit the results of your critical thinking exercises, reflecting on areas for improvement.

Embrace intellectual curiosity. For instance, read or listen to books of one's choice. Further, books should be understood as "mentors" because of unlimited availability along with a welcoming invitation to always learn.
