For me I've been furiously studying my own mental processes and
taking LOTS AND LOTS of notes, studying the brain in general,
from both a high level (processes) and at a very zoomed in

be a simple of matter of remembering to ask yourself a question
or two while "in the mo...ment" or doing one or two little
things that always work. But I'm building it as much from
scratch as I can, using experience as my own guide (test,
retest) rather than looking at someone else's "overall theory" -
and using other people's theories as "proofs" in case I need
validation. 3 month long obsession but I'm getting close. "
