I would agree with anons who say you can see it in the face, and I would also add, obviously, in one's personality. People who are always thinking deeply about things, extrapolating information and analyzing their observations and surroundings, they are aware of their current state of mind and feelings, and they are aware of how their current state of mind and feelings affect the thoughts they are having.
You can see it in their eyes, when they are looking at and focused on many things, instead of unfocused and just "seeing" what's in front of them. The less thoughtful person is more animal-like, so instead of piercing with their eyes to extract useful information in order to act with calculation, they just broadly perceive what's around them in order to react, unaware of their own thought processes and unconcerned with those of others, so they just let their emotions fly and get carried away by them.
One big giveaway is any talk of "intuition". A less thoughtful person trusts their feelings because they basically just run on automatic mode; Animal, instinctual, they don't have to think about it. "I have a feeling about this" is how the less-thoughtful judge things. Thoughtful people think about the way they are feeling, determining the root causes of that feeling, and then making judgments based on those reliable and definable external sources.
It's like reading the cover-slip summary of a book vs. reading the book.
