Very nice post.

As Daniel Kahneman puts it (I'm paraphrasing) often only a stark incongruity, something obviously wrong, will prompt the mind to think critically. In the absence of such glaring falsehoods, we often passively accept whatever is presented to us.

One way is to pose --and hence "frame" questions for ourselves, to prompt our minds to address the questions that we need answered. I discuss this in the context of "Afformations" in this post:
