One of the things that you learn when you are using telepathy to delve around in peoples minds is that not everybody thinks in the same way. That the way that you perceive the world is different from everybody else. Ever thought "Why the hell did this person behave in this way?"

If you want to know what other people are thinking you must first understand the different ways in which people think. There are three basic types of thinking. We all use a mixture of the types but generally are predominate in one. The brain is very adaptive and it is possible to train your mind to improve in the areas you feel you are the weakest.

Visual
There are some people who think mainly in pictures. They make images in their minds or play videos. What shall we have for dinner? Their mind flick through images of sausages and mash, or spaghetti, or toast or whatever. These people say things like "look at this" or "did you see this" and these people are generally good at art or design because they have a strong 3d visual sketch pad in their minds.

Auditory
There are those who think in words. Those who hear there own voice say the words they are thinking. People who ask themselves questions in their mind or 'talk to themselves'. In the dark ages if you told somebody you thought like this you were considered a witch! This people say things like "Did you hear about this?" or "I read this thing which said..."

Kinesthetic
Finally there are those who 'feel' rather than think. People who deal with whims, intuition and gut instincts. People who base their decision making on the way they feel in their bodies. This isn't to say that they are better for psychic power. In fact often these people struggle to explain their actions.

So the question is which type are you?

I'm a mix of all 3 but predominantly Auditory with Kinesthetic coming in 2nd and probably Visual coming in 3rd, but 2nd/3rd are close.

I am confused in visual or kinesthetic way of thinking because i find its difficult to make other understand my feelings and when i think , i think visually on 3rd number is auditory .

Visually most of the time as I'm an artist. But when it comes to a problem that requires logic, then it's auditory.

Hi, In my case it is visual and Kinesthetic

What I love about this kind of thing is that its not something people talk about and t can be surprising to find that there are other ways of thinking from the way in which you do it.

bump... for our newer members. which type are you?

maybe i have kinesthetic way of thinking, sometimes that way of thinking comes on its own. it happened two years ago, when me and my friends at the fourth floor building watching parade, and my friend put his bottle at the.. (I don't know how to translate) top maybe. I told him that bottle maybe fall down and hit people below us and then after a few minutes, my friend just hit the bottle accidentaly, and the bottle fell down below. I was shock about that.

sorry for bad grammar.

3nd 70% 1st 20% 2nd 10%

All of them are visual...

All of them are visual? What do you mean good sir?

Most people think visual, yes. I actually think 2 ways though: Visual and Kinesthetically. Most of the times visual though. Kinesthetically when my intuition and guts comes into play.

I think I can do all 3. But better at visual and kinestically. but with both combined I am able to think of things in a form of space and time, not in a means of prediction but more like motion projection.
Visual is a primary my analytical process and kinestically is how I make decision.

I'm an auditory thinker. I think in words and sentences. It's weird that I can think a whole paragraph faster than I can say it out loud even though I say all the words in my mind.

I think I might be auditory too... All of them are visual though. For auditory you visualize what you are being told, for kinetically you visualize what you are feeling. If that makes any sense...

Everybody uses a mixture of all three. Most of the time when I am thinking to myself I just speak to myself in my own voice but in my mind. So for example if I think about when I go home tonight I say to myself "oh man, I've got to wash up." Where as you probably play a video in your mind of washing up, or a kinestetic person might imagine the feeling of the water on their hands or something.

And yeah nobody is exclusively just one type, I mean I just had to think in all three ways to give that example above.

i tend to think in paradox's meaning there is never a correct answer always something i can add to it persay you ask me a question how do i fix a car or how can i build hot rod, i would normally go into extreme micro and macro detail on the different stuff you can do to it as there is litterally millions of combinations you can do i would say well this motor with these wheels or this paint or this exhaust with this window tint etc etc i can never reach a conclusion on something always something to add in or subtract

Then I'm 50% auditory and 50% kinetically thinker

It doesn't surprise me that your auditory and kinesthetic essa. You seem really in tune with your feelings and I bet you are one of those people who enjoys "feeling the burn" when you do exercise or dancing. And ofc singing and musical ability is often linked with auditory thinkers.

30% Visually
10% Auditorily
60% THINKING IN MUSIC! lol

I alway hear musics inside my head, especially to which I nearly hear

I think that auditory people have the hardest time "thinking of nothing" during meditations.

true. I'm very sensitive, thats why I love to stay in peace, sometimes I can't even afford my friends or family people come too close to my aura field if they got aggressive or sad emotions.

70% auditory 30% kinesthetically.
