The THINK questions generally stand for:
- T: Is it True?
- H: Is it Helpful?
- I: Is it Inspiring?
- N: Is it Necessary?
- K: Is it Kind?
If Xavier is considering commenting that his friend looks tired, he might answer "yes" to the following criteria:
- T: Is it True? – If he genuinely believes that she looks tired, he might answer "yes."
- H: Is it Helpful? – If he thinks that acknowledging her tiredness could be helpful for her in a supportive way, he may answer "yes."
- N: Is it Necessary? – If he feels that mentioning her looking tired is important, he might answer "yes," although this could be subjective.
- K: Is it Kind? – Depending on the context and relationship, he might believe that pointing it out kindly could be seen as genuine concern.
However, he might answer "no" to I: Is it Inspiring? – Because commenting on someone looking tired is generally not inspiring.
Ultimately, while answering the THINK questions can guide him, it doesn’t mean he should post the comment.
