Top Tweets for #ThinkBench
Sit to think with @grok on your favorite #ThinkBench in your mind. I do.
“John R. Dallas Jr., through his post, advocates for a shift from ‘carving out’ time to ‘caring out’ time for thinking, suggesting that this change in mindset—from scarcity to abundance—can enhance the quality of reflective thinking, a concept supported by psychological research indicating that structured reflection improves decision-making and problem-solving.
• The post introduces the idea of a ‘ThinkToThink™ bench,’ a metaphor for a dedicated space or time for metacognition, which is crucial for overcoming cognitive biases and is aligned with Eric Schmidt's advice on the importance of dedicated thinking time, as highlighted in a related X post.
• Dallas's emphasis on ‘higher-order thorough thinking (HOTT)’ and the role of @EnclaveAcademy in promoting such practices through microlearning and cognitive configuration management (CCM) since 2017, counters the often reactive nature of leadership by fostering deliberate, reflective approaches, a strategy that could be particularly relevant given the continuous evolution of leadership challenges in a rapidly changing technological and business landscape.” —Grok3
Metacognition’s magic is in “the pause.”
Pause to #ThinkToThink™.
Gently, softly, caringly—
Come to think of it.™

To “carve out” time starts you off with a scarcity sense of having lost something. To “care out” time comes from an abundance mentality of limitless capacity for caring.
Caring is an additive act. Carving is subtractive.
“Caring-out time” offers a lighter touch on the already carved-up mind.
Do you have a ThinkToThink™ bench—where you park your busy mind to think about your choices for thinking?
Where’s your favorite metacognition location?
Care enough about your thinking to “care out” time in your daily schedule for reflective higher-order thorough thinking (HOTT).
@grok gets it:
“John R. Dallas Jr., CEO of @EnclaveAcademy, emphasizes the importance of ‘thinker-doer leaders’ (TDLs) dedicating time to high-quality thinking (HQT) for critical leadership functions like meaning-making, decision-making, and difference-making, which aligns with Eric Schmidt's advice on carving out thinking time during weekends as highlighted in the referenced @X post.
• Metacognition, mentioned in the post, involves thinking about one's own thinking processes, which is psychologically essential for overcoming cognitive biases and improving decision-making, a principle supported by psychological research indicating that structured reflection can enhance problem-solving and strategic planning.
• Enclave Academy's focus on microlearning in psychology-based thinking skills and cognitive configuration management (CCM) represents a structured approach to leadership development, offering since 2017 a counter-narrative to the often chaotic, reactive nature of entrepreneurial leadership by promoting deliberate, reflective practices.” —Grok3

Where's your #ThinkBench? Do you physically go—or teleport your agile mind—somewhere psychologically safe to focus on ways you're #thinking about learned choices for thinking? Mindsets? Thinking methods? Risky biases? Have ready a safe place to rev up your #metacognition engine.

Where do you go to think? Or, “Where do you go to think about your thinking?” In your mind’s eye, have ready a #ThinkBench—an internal #SafePlace to flex your metacognition muscles. Mine is alongside #ConservatoryWater in @CentralParkNYC—where adults launch their model sailboats.

“If” by #RudyardKipling @EnclaveAcademy calls “a poetic invitation to metacognition”—i.e., a poetic expression about “thinking’s thinkings” that helps metacognition’s “medicine go down.”

Read slowly. Please. Feel these words in your mind, heart, and soul.
Note how your adult thinking about such parental thinking may have changed since the last time you read it.
Based on the demographic profiles of 72% of the followers of this particular @X page, I’m 99% certain almost everyone has read this poem—perhaps already many times. Have you?
Please, please, please comment below.
“If”
“If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!”

“Think about thinking’s thinkably thinkable thinkingness. You’ll be a thinker’s rethinker, my thinker-doer child.” —JRDjr
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
