Final WordsFree-thinkers always think clearly and are always rational. Free thinkers are born with the capacity to think creatively, and they refuse to heed the dictums of the stupid.

If you think freely and are bold enough to say what you think, it means you're surrounded by only a few wise people. People who have wonderful minds are very careful and try hard to find partners who understand them.

It's exhaustion to constantly refute the prevailing wisdom that society tells us. Free-thinkers, who have brilliant ideas, are like a muscle that causes other people to be strong. They show that many beliefs are absurd. However, here are the top 15 signs to identify you are a Free Thinkers or not.

1. You choose to live life a certain way and that is as unique as an Alien

If you free-think, you always act according to what you believe. No one, not you, can say that you should do something else. You've come to believe what you believe because of what you experienced and what you asked questions about it. You put them to the test and the results were very impressive. You can't kowtow or obey laws that were designed to oppress people.

2. You're Excellent In The Places That You Work and What You Do

If you free-think, there's no room for mediocrity. You're creative and have a great sense of humor. You try to do everything you can to be the best that you can be. It's not necessary that you do regular work to be able to think freely and to be creative. You think you're the greatest law secretary on the planet, but nobody realizes that you dress up in a uniform that makes you look cool and go long-boarding on the highways. Most of us are content to regularly check our spellings before we start our day, but you live life like you were born to live.

3. You're Your own person! You're creative. You're intelligent. You're bold

You're unlike everyone else. Who needs to be like everyone else? Free-thinkers are special because they look very unique, and there's no reason to have more than one. You might have many of these things, but you've chosen to live simply and sincerely. People who work for big corporations generally don't really define the way they think or how they dress.

You're unique. It's not that they dictate what they think and how they dress. It's that they decide what they think and what they say. You look very handsome and like you're being edgy, but you don't look like anyone else. You can be as stylish as someone like Oscar Wilde or even a writer like Charles Dickens.

4. Because you think differently than others, your ideas are always on the cutting edge.

Freethinkers are always thinking about new ideas. You think creatively from a variety of perspectives, such as from a social perspective, to an intellectual perspective, and even from a .spiritual perspective. You can make films that really test peoples beliefs, or you can create stories or songs that stir people up to think about what they should do. You're very creative; it's as though you choose to think freely.

5. You've Been Claimed as a Weird

People can't understand you. Norms won't help you. Some people just think that you'll never live a long time. Buttoneded bankers like to get huge amounts of money from bribing dictators to let them stay in power think that you've committed some sort of fraud, as they think you'll never have enough money to pay their lawyers. Free-thinkers understand completely how impossible the American dream is. They decide to move away from big cities and start living in small towns. Some people dream about living far from civilization. They dream of living in beautiful places and raising hippies in those places. You travel to all the places that you'd like to visit. You begin to publish books that are written by old people for old people. You decide what you're going to do based on what you feel. It's totally odd to think that way.

6. You Make Decisions That Are Independent

Free-thinkers think for themselves. They don't listen to others. You're worried that people who claim to be your religious friends are planning to go to he'll because of all the crap that's being promised to them. You decided to reject those who tried to control you and start to think secretly, not-so-secretly. You'll continue to rely on your own thinking even though you know that others will reject your ideas.

7. Those who think critically often question things that other people think about them

Because free-thinkers aren't like everyone else, they know that having more information or more power doesn't necessarily give you a more powerful belief system. People who are extremely intelligent and powerful often destroy things. It was designed by a few extremely clever people, but some people were seriously damaged by their invention. Even people who think they know a lot can be very foolish. You know you don't have to believe them but you also know you can if their ideas pass your qualifying tests.

8. You Keep Friends Despite the Things That You Think

People who think freely agree that people will always say something different. Your meetings are usually very noisy. Sometimes people think very differently when they read something that someone else has written. You've had interesting conversations with people who have been very creative. They get you thinking. You enjoy being around people whose ideas intrigue you. You like it when people say things that seem like a variation of an embarrassing joke: I'll invite a Jew, a Christian and an atheist to dinner. If people stay home alone, life becomes really tedious. You don't like being bored.

9. You Have Heard Of The Kardashians (but know nothing about them)

Free-thinkers understand what's happening in the world today, but don't need to accept what people say. You're dead to all the things that are happening in the world today. You're smart and you probably have people who constantly talk about what you do, but you really do have no time for that. You pay a high price for the brain space that you get when you watch reality TV. You'd much prefer to eat rusting nails than think about stuff that has gone viral on television.

10. You Never Put on Your Animated DVDs. What They See On TV Are Things That You Know Nothing About.

You don't want to use a mind control device. It doesn't appeal to what you want to think about or what you want to do with your life. That's why you avoid advertising and listening to people who claim that they can make you happy if you only eat the yogurt they sell you. TV shows are dead. It doesn't make sense anymore. You're always doing things that make you happy. You're always planning to travel or go out to eat with your friends. You Think What You Think. Your thoughts are unlimited.

11. You've always wanted to learn more. You like to learn things

Free-thinkers enjoy reading. They like big books. They like to think. Have fun reading. You want to learn more. You Read. You read big books. You read a lot of science fiction. You read books that are actually true. You Like to Read Books. With lots of words in it. You actually read the whole book. Not just news headlines. You think a lot before you act. You think a lot before you act. You want to think carefully and have good ideas that are hard to explain. Not just a bunch of words that sound good and sound like someone said that you should. E-readers and books written in a very nice way are useful to free-thinkers.

12. You Never Pay Any Attention At All To Food Labels

You're always thinking free-thought. You don't care whether gay or lesbian or whatever – if you want to know about every ideology out there, you can pick up information from any party. You can easily compare them and come up with ideas for yourself. Feminist, Humanist, Pacifist, Realist – if there is any thing in any list you like you adopt it but you don't go wholesale to the point of exclusion or inclusion. You only ever look at food labels and you know when it's safe to eat the food if you're allergic.

13. Because You Can Travel Across The World And See It Anywhere You Want To Go

You think about things from multiple perspectives and you think how they really are. Your friend is very Buddhist and avoids eating meat, eating onions and drinking a lot of strong drinks. Your mother attends church regularly, helps orphans in need and always says no to others. You know that your professor loves communism, hates being marked hard and wears the same tweed coat all the time (or at the very minimum, no matter how hard it may be). You enjoy doing what other people do. You respect the different ways people live, and you think it's important for us to have people like them in the world.

14. You Always Said Why? You questioned all along that you did what was right.

Free thinkers are weirdly fascinated by all sorts of things. Since you were very young, you'd been begging why and you'd never quit. You know that when you do what you do, there are many reasons why we do things that we don't want to do. You know that the way dogs behave is because they know how much food you eat. You love to ask big questions because they make you think about things in a deeper way. You ponder big questions all the time, but despite that you ponder the tiny things too. When we eat too much sugar, we start to produce acids which can damage our teeth. Interesting…

15. You Like To Read a Lot. You like to read a lot. You like to think big ideas.

When things aren't important to them, free-thinkers are relaxed and take everything in a lighthearted way. It's very exciting to be able to think about all kinds of ideas and think about them. You like to take risks and try out things that you think about a lot. You love trying out fun foods and trying out different flavours of wine. It's fun to think about different things and to think about different things because everyone is always curious and adventurous.

Final Words

There is no single answer to this question as everyone has their own definition of what it means to be a free thinker. In general, however, free thinkers are people who challenge the status quo and think outside the box. They are open-minded and willing to consider new ideas, even if they go against the grain. Free thinkers are often independent and critical thinkers who are not afraid to speak their mind.
