Keegan Parsons · Answer 1

Before ordering this magical pill she must use her critical thinking skills of analysis, interpretation, and reflection. She needs to analyze whether such statements that are advertised are true or not; after analyzing she interprets what she can and cannot possibly do to resolve her dilemma; and then she would reflect whether such product is a practical way of spending her own money or not.
