        Big picture thinking:

Big picture thinking is that thinking broadly about every situation or finding various ways to solve problems. Successful people don’t work on anyone’s order or opinion. They think broadly and find the smart way to do any task. They don’t spend their free time on useless activities. They daily try to learn something new. Through big picture thinking, we see all the aspects of the matter and then we figure out from which method we should solve this problem.

Focused Thinking:

Successful people focus on one task at a time because in this way they can do that task easily and quickly. If you use the multi-tasking method then you can’t give full focus on that work and through this, the quality of the work will be disturbed or the work will be submitted late. So, this is the logic behind this, most successful people complete focus of their work at a time and try to away from multi-tasking.

If you want to become a success that you should focus on one thing at a time. First, do one task with full focus and then do another.

Realistic Thinking:

Successful people also smartly solve real problems. They don’t spend their time in an optimistic world. They try their best to live in real life and think realistically.

Conclusion: 

So if you want to become a successful person in your life then you should be good at all three types of thinking. You can’t learn these thinking types quickly but when you spend time using all three thinking types then one day you will be an expert.
