Top Tweets for #effortfulthinking
“Thinking about thinking” for thinker-doers is the apple core-way to be certain your thinking falls far from yesterday’s tree.
Prioritize your control over thinking.
Move your thinkingness from “thinkings through #thoughtings to thoughts.”
#EffortfulThinking with #AI is vital.
🍎Knowledge is Dead. 🧠Thinking is Not.
👉A provocative keynote address on #education and #AI that can only happen in El Salvador.

How to think in extraordinary ways allows intellectually curious, humble, and generous #ThinkerDoer thinkers to think about, pursue, and live extraordinary #ThinkAndDo lives. #EffortfulThinking effortfully moves minds from #DefaultOrdinary to the delightfully truly extraordinary.
#ThinkingHurts we're told by #neuroscientists. When your mind is busy thinking with #EffortfulThinking, do you occasionally say, "My head hurts?" It does. Don't avoid #neurodiscomfort caused by #HigherOrderThinking's #System2Thinking. It will pass. "No brain pain, no mind gain."
Cognitive biases include avoidance of #EffortfulThinking. Busy minds need a steady flow of reminders to pause long enough to check and crosscheck the #mindsets and #TypesOfThinking we’re mindfully choosing to use to make decisions. It’s risky to sidestep #metacognition’s value.
Please don’t miss clicking this free “gift link” to read a valuable article in @nytimes that uncovers both societal and deeply personal risks that so-called “good looks” can hide. Resist #EasyThinking. #EffortfulThinking’s needed—especially if you humbly call yourself attractive.
The double-edge sword of what forensic psychologists call the “halo effect” prompted my immediate related post seen below this article’s “subscriber gift link”—from me to you (for paywall-free access).
Attractiveness shields neediness. Psychological combustion and physical deterioration are hidden behind genetics, calisthenics, and cosmetics.
The paradoxically concurrent conscious or unconscious feelings of vulnerability and invincibility of someone with “good looks” can be overlooked by similarly attractive—or less than attractive—psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, coaches, school counselors, and others who may unconsciously envy the distracting appealing appearance of someone whose halo they are paid to ignore in order to look behind mental, physical, and material masks. —JRDjr
Then there’s “…the tendency of the public to equate innocence with attractiveness, the halo effect when combined with the social bandit phenomenon creates a combustible pop-culture archetype…”
“You get the thirsty, soft-focus take on the criminal and the bloody revolutionary.” —NYT
Click for more revelatory insights from @nytimes about ways outside good looks can camouflage pathological risks of the ticking time bombs we trust on our streets—and in seats of political and corporate power.

#TheEightQuestions we recite and delineate at @enclave_center. To help us think against society’s headwinds of #LazyThinking, we use #EffortfulThinking lessons of @NobelPrize awardee Dr. #DanielKahneman (1934-2024). Rely on his #HigherOrderThinking’s preferable #System2Thinking.
I thought I was rational.
Then I read Daniel Kahneman's Nobel Prize-winning work on human decision-making.
He routinely asks 8 questions to expose cognitive traps you fall into daily.
Test yourself with these questions (it's the ultimate BS detector for your brain):
Some people are afraid to discover, admit, or confront uncomfortable and inconvenient #truths and guesswork about themselves. You?
Fear of #SelfDiscovery blocks #HigherOrderThinking.
#EffortfulThinking is #System2Thinking.
Relatively #EffortlessThinking is #System1Thinking.
#FearOfThinking—#phronemophobia—keeps even habitually curious minds from clicking on this gift link to a high-value piece in @nytimes about “whys” in the mind’s world ignorance would be preferable to knowledgeableness. Fearing #SelfDiscovery impedes #metacognition and maturation.
“Things You Can Control” invites minds to use #System2Thinking—a compelling invitation to #metacognition.
@X is the biggest online mailbox for curious minds. It’s stuffed with invitations to think about and #rethink our thinking—i.e., use metacognitive #EffortfulThinking.
RSVP.
Things you can control
#IntellectualHumility must be firmly nestled between #IntellectualCuriosity and #IntellectualGenerosity. Humility holds together the lifelong pursuit of knowledge, #wisdom, and clarity. Telling lack of #humility in #EffortfulThinking compromises #metacognition’s upside potential.
If you’ve studied psychology at all, you are familiar with ‘cognition’.
Thinking, brain power.
Researchers are now studying what they call “METACOGNITION”.
It just might be the key to unlocking rapid acceleration of learning and self-improvement.
🧵 Here’s how… 🧵
If increased profits and improved overall performance aren’t motivating enough to get you over your #FearOfThinking (#FoT) or resistance to strategic #EffortfulThinking, think about ways #metacognition offsets cognitive decline as you grow older and forestalls other diminishment.
Busy minds pause with @EnclaveAcademy for #microlearning modules in #metacognition—that increase #CognitiveReserve. #Neuroscientists say this focus strengthens the #brain's resilience to #neuropathological damage. Individuals could experience slower #CognitiveDecline as they age.
Use #System2Thinking during difficult discussions. #Rethink learned WAYS (plural) to think instead of HOW to think (singular). #Metacognition's semantics guide thinking beyond high-risk default #EasyThinking toward much safer #EffortfulThinking. Aim for #BestEffortThinking (BET).
Navigating hard conversations surrounding sensitive topics like politics, religion, gun control, or abortion can cause strain on any relationship.
These tips can help guide the conversation in a more positive direction: https://t.co/NrFP2pFtxT
Think.
Think twice.
Think things through.
Think things through thoroughly.
Think.
Think deeper.
Think wider.
Think higher.
#Vote thinkingly with #System2Thinking’s “thinkably thinkable thinkingness.”
Use #HigherOrderThinking’s #EffortfulThinking. The Ethics of Metacognition.
Metacognitively regulated minds of #HighPropensityThinkers (HPTs) intentionally engage in #HigherOrderThinking (HOT) metacognition before casting their “HOT #votes” for the next #ThinkerInChief. In 2024, U.S. #CitizenThinkers need #BestEffortThinking (BET)—to BET on our republic.
Viable recommendations made by knowledgeable, empathic, and intellectually generous minds deserve from us grateful types—#EffortfulThinking.
Think about and try wise suggestions for improving your thinking and doing.
Push through #BrainPain for #MindGain.
#Metacognition works!
Once you realize you deserve a bright future, letting go of your dark past becomes the best decision you'll ever make.
We all carry experiences, good and bad, that shape us. But there comes a time when we have to stop letting the past define our future.
Without the hashtags, you’ll want to copy and paste this question into the query box of your fave #chatbot. Learn what #ArtificialIntelligence “thinks” about the discomfort humans feel while engaged in #ResponsibleThinking’s #EffortfulThinking. #Metacognition works well with #AI.
Did evolution infuse in brains a counterforce to effortful #ResponsibleThinking? The instinctual #SurvivalistMindset of our progenitors allowed an instant’s quantity of thinking. Is the discomfort brains feel when thinking a harkening to primordial risk in taking time to #think?
#ThinkItSlow doesn’t mean #think slowly. It’s not the speed of #thinking per se about which #DanielKahneman (1934-2024) taught us. To #ThinkToThink™ is about intentionality, deliberateness, and perseverance. It’s #EffortfulThinking vs. #ThinklessThinking. https://t.co/toDboyE2e2
It’s painful and gainful, #SlowThinking.
Click to read how @profgalloway interprets and delineates the #MetacognitiveRegulation for which the @NobelPrize in #EconomicSciences—n.b., not psychology—was awarded to psychologist #DanielKahneman (1934-2024).
Dr. Kahneman implored #ThinkerDoers to learn to choose and use ways to think. In his seminal #ThinkingFastAndSlow, he mapped and memorialized #metacognition’s mission criticality for every #ThinkerDoer.
For purposeful, humble, and generous thinkers about thinking, it’s growing more gratifying to see #IrrationalThinking yield to the appeal—and promise—of #IntentionalThinking.
The increasing ubiquity in our lives of #ArtificialIntelligence is forcing nearly all levels of thinkers to rethink our #HumanThinking.
#ThinkToThink™ to move your #FastAndSlowThinking toward #BestEffortThinking (“BET”).
For decision-making and difference-making, “your BET is a better bet.”
“Underthinking is a greater risk than overthinking.” —JRDjr

During #microlearning events in #metacognition with @EnclaveAcademy, we see faces suggesting they’re experiencing levels of #PainfulThinking. They are! #Metacognitive pain strengthens its gain. Some minds won’t return for such #EffortfulThinking. Humor we use to cushion the pain.
#ThinkingHurts.
#Thinking’s #PainPoints are datapoints.
#ThinkerDoers push through the 1-to-10 scale for #PainfulThinking.
Fleeting to paralyzing pain of “effortful thinking” contributes to causation of #phronemophobia—i.e., the #FearOfThinking (#FoT)—@EnclaveAcademy suggests.
In his op-ed for @edutopia, DFI's @HealJim explores key criteria for refining student thinking:
1️⃣ Is my follow-up question effortful?
2️⃣ Is my follow-up question targeted?
