Critical thinking is a unique way of analyzing any given data. It is
stepping back from the moment, from what we take for granted, our
emotions and impromptu responses and seeing the world from a measured,
leveled plain. It is the breakdown of our everyday thought to make
room for a more logical, more finessed ideology. Not to make it sound
so inaccessible though. We resort to critical thinking for something
as simple as choosing a certain course of action to something more
mind baffling like when we find our ideals and beliefs under attack or
doubt. It forces us to reevaluate any belief we hold dear for no
apparent or logical reason apart from conditioning, a belief that was
always 'just there'

  2. you are right. Critical thinking usually starts with something unsettling that "gets people thinking" and causes them to question what they thought they already knew.
