Criticism and Conjecture in the Critical Rationalism Perspective

I think that all human level thought consists of doing this problem solving thing, even if it's sort of subconscious and stuff. And then criticism is finding problems, finding contradictions,. Like seeing which things like kind of whittling down will be helpful for our problem. It doesn't have to be this sort of conscious thing that most people think of us thinking. How do I say this without using simonyms? That's a good question. Yeah so maybe I mean like human level thought or mental processes.
