Metacognition

“The term refers to thinking about one’s thinking. More precisely, it refers to the processes used to plan, monitor, and assess one’s understanding and performance.”

Awareness of what we think throughout the day is fascinating. According to different studies, the average number of thoughts we have is about 60’000 – crazy. From a personal experience, I often remember only a tiny fraction of what I thought the whole day, especially outside in movement. I’m unsure if it benefits us to know what we think all day. No matter how many we have, remembering the beautiful ones sounds good.
