to think
Use your mind
To think is to use the mind—forming ideas, reasoning through problems, or simply being conscious of something.
You can think about a topic, think of a solution, or think that something is true.
To think is also to hold an opinion: I think he's wrong.
Think it over means consider carefully.
I can't think straight signals mental confusion.
Come to think of it introduces a sudden recollection.
