Shared Thoughts
The Google AI Overview for the search phrase, "how many thoughts does the average human have every day," returned this response:
Estimates for daily thoughts vary, with some sources citing 6,000 to 12,000 thoughts, while others suggest a much higher range, from 60,000 to 80,000 thoughts, often with a high percentage (90-95%) being repetitive and negative. More recent scientific studies, using brain imaging to track thought transitions, point to numbers closer to 6,000-7,000 thoughts per day, challenging the older, larger figures.
This then begs the questions of what defines an individual thought, does tangential thought spawned by the original thought count as a separate thought, how were these thoughts tracked, etc... Hopping on those trains (of thought) get us no closer to wisdom, knowledge and understanding of our existence, but were mentioned to highlight the importance of the quality of the thoughts we have, their purposes and the importance of having thoughts that matter and make positive, constructive, differences in our lives and the lives of others.
