Just a funny random thought I figured might help someone here.
Want personal development on steroids?
Get into what’s called metacognition .
It simply means rising above your own mind and practicing awareness, understanding and analysis to your own thinking. Same strategy intelligence analysts over at the CIA, FBI and DEA use.
Tons of resources on this discipline and method.
The funny part is that out of all the self help books, gurus and courses out there in the wild. Not once has it ever been mentioned. Never. And yet it’s the number one thing that will help you get out of your shitty mind set(if you suffer from one).
“Intelligence analysts should be self-conscious about their reasoning processes. They should think about how they make judgments and reach conclusions, not just about the judgments and conclusions themselves.”
“Analysts construct their own version of “reality” on the basis of information provided by the senses, but this sensory input is mediated by complex mental processes that determine which information is attended to, how it is organized, and the meaning attributed to it. What people perceive, how readily they perceive it, and how they process this information after receiving it are all strongly influenced by past experience, edu- cation, cultural values, role requirements, and organizational norms, as well as by the specifics of the information received.“
