The apps, journals, and mental tools designed to help you monitor and control your own thought processes, which usually just make you more anxious about how disorganized your thoughts are. This includes meditation apps that remind you to "observe your thoughts without judgment" (judging you when you forget), thought-journaling software that categorizes your cognitive distortions (proving you have way too many), and productivity timers that make you realize you've spent 45 minutes "planning to start." The most advanced metacognitive technology remains a sticky note on your monitor that says "FOCUS," which you will immediately stop seeing.
