Self-Mastery

Metacognitive tools are strategies or methods used to reflect upon, understand, and control one’s own cognitive processes. They can be further divided into:

• Self-Reflection Tools: Techniques like journaling, self-questioning, and mindfulness practices that help individuals analyze their own thought processes and decision-making.
• Learning Strategies: Methods such as the Feynman Technique, spaced repetition, and active recall that focus on enhancing learning and memory retention.
• Problem-Solving Strategies: Tools like the Socratic method or design thinking which aid in systematically approaching and solving complex problems.
• Planning and Organization Tools: Techniques for setting goals, time management, and organizing thoughts, like mind mapping or the Eisenhower Matrix.
