“自由的思维因为消防服务是一种咒语，它鼓励消防员成为一切。自由思考及其堂兄，言论自由，受到越来越多的审查，后者通常只会带来守卫的对话窃窃私语。
每个消防员认为他们选择是免费的,but expression of some thoughts and opinions (lawful) must often be tweaked so as not to disturb other firefighters’ sensibilities. This is the difference between a firefighter being all they can be and a firefighter being all they are allowed to be. The fire service is trying to decrease the number of sensibility injuries, so at times free thinking might be best kept from manifesting into free speech. Talk about thermal insult!
所有消防员都应练习自由思考，并能够与他们的同伴消防员分享他们的想法，并没有被报复所束缚。水冷却器谈话不会加强消防服务。如果环境是不育的一种，那么自由思考和语音通常与低流长装饰相匹配。软踏板我们的思想违反了我们的本性。消防员是行动和创造性问题的人。当感觉到自由思想的抑制存在时，它会变得奇怪，直到它破裂为止，结果通常是负面的。尽管机组人员的意见可以从完全协议到完全分裂，但我们应该对调查结果感到满意，因为它已经通过自由思考收获。
尽管没有人完全掌握自由思考，但仍然许多消防员说他们不拥有的事情。重要的是要记住，广告策略经常被用来引起您的注意和购买预包装的咒语。自由思想家使用此规则。规模技巧不仅是为了回应。
When someone tells you how to think about something, pause and do just that, think about it. After you have given it the requisite amount of time it deserves, use your free thought to act on that information. Actions such as dismissal, further contemplation, or endorsement keeps you in a free-thinking mode. When others are trying to unduly influence your ability to think freely, look out, because once you allow space for that infiltration, you lose free-though space and associated filters.
试图使消防员更自由地思考的一个最新例子是部门将SOPS更改为SOG（程序与指南）。SOP上的叮当声是他们限制了自由思想，而指南一词更灵活。更改单词会有所作为吗？有人说是。费城律师可以更好地解释这一点。有所作为的是，如果一个部门允许在火灾和紧急情况下自由思考的灵活性 - 这比一个单词更大。
Free thinking must be at its highest levels at a fire, however your actions are something that needs to be controlled at a fire scene. Your actions must mesh with others’ actions and not become a patchwork of separatist movements. This is why we have game plans, to channel typical actions based on conditions encountered, developed from varied experiences, properly mixed to obtain an expected outcome.
消防队员s must be free to think things through using experience and knowledge to communicate and fix the problems we face every day. Enhanced problem solving can only occur when we strip down the issue and use our free thinking brains to make adjustments for what we hope will be improved results. Your tactical safety has always been about free thinking; make sure you keep it that way. If you want to, of course.
