Hope I see in these faces, not hubris.
Purpose I sense, not pride.
Thinking on behalf of the people is evident, not slight-of-hand political trickery.
Let’s join these thinkers about better thinking in “civic metacognition.”
#ThinkToThink™ things through thoroughly together.
Summary from @grok:
“The post shares a group photo of the 2027 U.S. Senate freshmen class, building off of Chris Pappas’s ‘Off to a great start’ while urging followers to analyze public thinking of freshmen senators for logic, ethics, morality, and thoroughness.
• Author @JohnRDallasJr, @EnclaveAcademy CEO,
advocates applying what he calls ‘civic metacognition,’ best-effort thinking (BET), and higher-order thorough thinking (HOTT) to politics, especially amid AI advances and intellectual issues in D.C.
• Dallas offers frameworks like his academy’s #ThinkToThink™ Pause and enterprise metacognition skills training (EMST) as tools to combat hazy or lazy thinking and foster better collective decision-making for the common good.” —Grok
With @jamestalarico and @ChrisPappasNH in the front of your mind, ThinkToThink™ more thinkingly about the thoroughness of thinkingness on Capitol Hill.
#MetacognitionWorks.
Let’s commit to #CivicMetacognition.
Come to think of it.™
Fresh faces and fresh thinking of U.S. Senate Freshmen 2027.
“Follow the thinking” of new U.S. Senators.
#ThinkToThink™ about evident logic, ethics, morality, and thoroughness of their “public thinking”—more than politics.
“Civic metacognition”—i.e., thinking about thinking for the good of the order and the common good—is essential for individual and collective best-effort thinking (BET) in this tumultuous era.
AI’s emergence—and the perilous intellectual suppression of this presidential term—make top priority developing and deploying higher-order thorough thinking (HOTT).
Lower-order thinking (LOT) and higher-order thinking (HOT) aren’t HOTT enough to forge the steady flow of new thinking’s thoughts needed to conquer the cognitive disengagement—and emotional disenchantment—of these dim years in D.C. of #HazyThinking and #LazyThinking.
“Never underestimate your ability to think your way through any situation.” —Norman Vincent Peale (1898-1993)
#MetacognitionWorks—for “thinking better toward better thinking.”
Aim for best-effort thinking (BET).
“Bet on your BET.”
Come to think of it.™
Off to a great start.
As @bigthink illustrates so effectively and profoundly, your thinking constitutes your reality.
Agentic metacognition is a mindful action to strengthen your reality’s perceptions and perspectives.
The #ThinkToThink™ Pause optimizes your processing of what’s coming into view.
“Your daily actions help to constitute reality,” says Northeastern University psychologist @LFeldmanBarrett. She explains relational realism: the idea that much of what we treat as objective, from color to a president’s power, depends on meaning we assign together. Read it here: https://t.co/D4SQgGWp6v

Lorenzo Salgado was murdered by ICE 4 months ago today.
Texans have been adding their “I voted” stickers to his memorial in Houston.
I just added mine.
Trust these are apolitical posts about thinker-doer psychology of thinking, rethinking, and thinking again.
More thinkingly think to intellectually reinvigorate our democratic republic.
Let's model "civic metacognation" for the rest of the free-thinking world.
#ThinkToThink™.
The scale of the G.O.P.’s loss in Tuesday’s midterm elections defied even Donald Trump’s ability to lie, dissemble, and squirm his way out of it. These were the President’s own voters, in states where he won by huge margins just a couple of years ago. “The scale of this is so large because the scale of Trump’s offenses has been so vast,” Susan Glasser writes. Tariffs and trade wars, Canada-bashing, Europe-bashing, the betrayal of Ukraine and embrace of Vladimir Putin, the grotesque self-enrichment of himself and his circle, the unleashing of an armed militia of ICE goons on our streets. “They voted because so much of what is happening in Trump’s America seems so very un-American,” Glasser continues.

Build for your organization a “culture of intellectual freedom and curiosity.”
Enterprise metacognition skills training (EMST) erects psychologically safe scaffolding on which to base metacognitive insights, inferences, interpretations, and—innovations.
#ThinkToThink™ clearly.
When he first arrived as a student at Yale Law School, Michael Woodford ’80 J.D. wasn’t particularly interested in economics. But Yale’s culture of intellectual freedom and curiosity set him on a path that this month culminated in a Nobel Prize in the field.

It's the thinking!
You are #voting for the revealed thinking of thinker-doer candidates for office.
Contenders who win elections become #ElectedThinkers—who think and act on behalf of #CitizenThinkers.
#ThinkToThink™ with your best-effort thinking (BET).
"Bet on your BET."
It's the thinking!
For thinker-doer me, the political party isn't as important as a candidate's "thinking about thinking" (i.e., metacognition); the depth of their intellectual curiosity, humility, and generosity, in particular.
For nearly 10 years, friend and community colleague @TedMason56 and I frequently think things through thoroughly together.
#TedMason is a top-ranked Featured Thinker during @EnclaveAcademy's monthly series of free microlearning microclasses (since 2017) on best-effort thinking (BET) for business-minded leaders.
You can bet on Ted's BET.
"Bet on your BET" in polling booths—and everywhere else the quality and quantity of your thinking influences outcomes.
Ted Mason is my thinker-doer candidate of choice for @CookCountyBoard Commissioner.
Ted will intelligently, diligently, and proactively represent his fellow #CitizenThinkers of District 15.
Though @EnclaveAcademy doesn't endorse political candidates, certainly we can and should call attention to exemplary thinking of thinker-doers we know well enough to comment on the quality and quantity of their thinking.
"Vote your BET."
A.A. Milne guided children, adults—and their stuffed animals—to think through #FearOfThinking (#FoT) beyond The Hundred Acre Wood.
Alert-and-oriented (A&O) #ThinkerDoers conquer—with "think, think, think" metacognition—hints or hollers of #phronemophobia.
Pooh #ThinkToThink™.
“Let’s frighten the dragons,” I said to Pooh
“That’s right,” said Pooh to Me
“I’m not afraid,” I said to Pooh,
And I held his paw and I shouted, “Shoo!
Silly old dragons!” - and off they flew
“I wasn’t afraid,” said Pooh, said he,
“I’m never afraid with you.”
~A.A.Milne
The Art of Knowing What to Dive Deep Into
#ThinkToThink™ deep enough to avoid hitting your head when diving into someone else’s shallow “small talk kiddie pool.”
Click to read about #SmallTalk in @PsychToday by Manu Sidhu MBBS, a psychiatrist-in-training at the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, an Academic Clinical Fellow at King’s College London, and Clinical Advisor for mental health technology startups.
N.B., “…Clinical Advisor for mental health technology #startups.”
Wow!
Curated key points:
• Ordinary conversations often reveal subtle clues about what someone finds meaningful or important.
• Research suggests that follow-up questions increase likability by communicating interest and responsiveness.
• The goal in conversation is to notice openings for depth, not force every chat to be deeper.
—-
To paraphrase and repurpose the third key point:
“A goal of metacognition is to notice conscious openings for additional thinking in depth, yet not to force every thought to be deeper.”
#DepthTest core thinkings, #thoughtings, and thoughts that surface during the transition from small talk to substantive discussion.
• Need more depth?
• Request more depth.
• Offer more depth.
Know when thinking deep enough is enough metacognitive depth.

Getting through this mind-numbing era of DC-wrought intellectual suppression requires extra intentional #ThinkToThink™ thinkingness.
AI’s real and imagined threats to cognitive sovereignty also command best-effort thinking (BET).
With metacognition ignition, “Bet on your BET.”
“Tyrants and autocrats have always understood that literacy, learning, books and newspapers are potentially dangerous. They can inspire independent thought and even rebellion.”
— Carl Sagan
Summary by @grok of the accompanying post:
“The X post by @JohnRDallasJr emphasizes @EnclaveAcademy teaches ‘how to think better’ through metacognition skills rather than dictating ‘what’ to think, spotlighting the academy’s #ThinkToThink™ Pause model used with adaptable mindsets and thinking methods while alert to detect and deflect cognitive biases.
• It features an #EnclaveAcademy graphic targeting ‘people who think for a living,’ highlighting the organization’s focus on continually strengthened decision-critical metacognition psychology for leaders.
• As CEO of Enclave Academy, Dallas advocates enterprise metacognition skills training (EMST) to improve situational thinking effectiveness in professional contexts.” —Grok

How to think better.
Ways to think better.
Not “what” to think!
The “how” of @EnclaveAcademy is with continually learned and strengthened #metacognition skills.
#ThinkToThink™ “ways” are situationally indicated mindsets and thinking methods—ever-alert for cognitive biases.

From @grok:
“@JohnRDallasJr shares a gift link to the @nytimes ‘Unknowns’ series piece on the mystery of life’s origins, urging his readers to apply first principles thinking and metacognition skills while exploring the article.
• Dallas suggests noting personal ‘Oh!’, ‘Wow!’, and ‘Uh-oh!’ moments as a practical way to practice opening the mind for ‘thinking about thinking’ on such big unanswered and possibly unanswerable scientific questions.
• Attached is the NYT graphic with ‘How Did Life Arise?’ to prompt deeper reflection on this article’s fundamental unknowns and ‘unknown unknowns.’” —Grok
As you read this arresting piece, remember to pause to #ThinkToThink™ with #FirstPrinciplesThinking.
What can be more of a first principle than the elemental science involved in discovering what’s discoverable about the origins of evolution?
(Ask you BFF #thinkbot to guide you through a definition and topic-related descriptions of first principles thinking.)
Pause. Breathe.
Oxygen got its start somewhere somehow.

Summary from @grok:
“@JohnRDallasJr builds on a post by @A_AMilne with a C.R. Milne quote on nature’s restorative beauty in autumn woods. Dallas reflects poetically on ‘A.A. Milne,’ associating the name with ‘thinking warmth,’ Winnie-the-Pooh’s ‘think, think, think,’ and whole-body consciousness with metacognition.
• Dallas, an advocate for #ThinkToThink™ enterprise metacognition skills training (EMST) and @EnclaveAcademy CEO, playfully coins ’Metamilnecognition’ to blend Milne’s literary legacy with Einstein-like nonverbal visualization techniques for healthy brains and thinking-about-thinking (#metacognition) skills for minds.
• The original post’s accompanying image of a sunlit autumn forest path with colorful foliage and water directly illustrates the quoted passage about beech woods in October, reinforcing Dallas’s thinking themes of refreshment through natural beauty.” —Grok
Breathe.
#MetacognitionWorks.
Think thinking.
Prioritize thinking.
It’s a “thinking about thinking thing”—whatever it is about which you’re curious, studying, or otherwise developing in your mind.
With @McKinsey’s A+ #metathinking, #ThinkToThink™ with your best-effort thinking (BET).
Metacognition works.
Most B2B companies are experimenting with AI. Growth leaders are redesigning the commercial playbook around it.
The result: better opportunities, smarter decisions, and stronger customer outcomes. https://t.co/RiGi4HTTTK

“Don’t fake it to make it. Practice it to become it,” we whisper and shout at @EnclaveAcademy.
Click to hear sagacious @shaneparrish interview @RyanSerhant who brilliantly argues the above metacognition mindset case and much more.
@grok offers this analysis of the accompanying posts:
“@JohnRDallasJr, CEO of Enclave Academy and advocate for enterprise metacognition skills training (EMST), spotlights and builds on @RyanSerhant’s advice to ‘act like your future self’ and Dallas reframes the process around becoming a stronger ‘thinker-doer.’
• Dallas encourages ‘best-effort thinking’ (BET) and the #ThinkToThink™ pause pre decision-making as tools to conquer ‘fear of thinking’ (phronemophobia) through ongoing metacognitive practice focused on ‘thinking better about better thinking.’
• The post ties future-self mindset shifts to practical ‘tomorrow-self’ skill-building at #EnclaveAcademy, positioning metacognition as a core competency for personal and professional growth.” —Grok

Practice thinking.
Practice thinking about thinking.
Practice:
• Think.
• Think twice.
• Think things through,
• Think things through thoroughly.
• Think things through thoroughly together.
Practice—#ThinkToThink™.

Is the digital age really making us less literate, or clearing the way for a new kind of literacy?
Author and digital rights activist Cory Doctorow argues it's the latter, making the case that we've built a myth around how literate our predecessors actually were.
