You should use this word depending on the desired time.
Think - is present time
Thought - is past time

'thought' will either indicate the past tense, the action of thinking happening in the past :
"When I was young, I thought, that money was the most important thing in life."
or you could use it in a present time at the moment to refer to uncertainty,when you expect or supose something ,but you are not sure of it:
"I thought ,you would like to come with us."
"think" in the present tense always refers to a present action of thinking about or of something.
"I think, I will have to call her now."

i THINK you have understood this example.THINK =present simple tense
I THOUGHT you had not learnt your lesson=thought= past simple tense and this is irregular verb.
