I know it sounds naive but what does one do other than the obvious reading books and think to become a thinker. Or more like how does he begin to really think because as we know you can read more than enough difficult philosophical text and still not be able to really think anything out of them or really understand them and in general not be able to think.

Only about 5% of people can really think. Imagine grinding out squat. That's what really intense thinking is like, but over the course of a marathon.

The ability to tackle a problem, and make logical progression is difficult and long. Most people when they meet a problem end up ruminating over the same few things over and over in cycles and rarely get anywhere. If they are lucky they can sleep on it and make breakthroughs. This is why outside input is always helpful, it can break you out. It's like walking in a circle in the forest over and over again and not realizing it until someone comes a long and shows you the way out.

I recommend drugs. They help in deep understanding of text and exploring ideas. Yes, they stimulate your brain artificially, but the experience helps in understanding how small and insignificant we really are.

It might sound depressing, but that allows you to explore everything in your reach. Acknowledge that you aren't a vessel, you're a consciousness interacting with ideas and experiences. And then, try looking at it from a different perspective.
