Explainthe nature of thinking.

Thinking is the basis of all cognitive activities and processes, which are unique to humans. It involves manipulation and analysis of information received from the environment.

It is the higher mental process through which things are manipulated and the required information is analysed. For example, while playing a video game the mind thinks of strategies or techniques to win it.

Thus, thinking is organised and goal-directed. It is an internal mental process that is inferred through overt behaviour.
