Think about your thinking. Catch errors in reasoning before they become errors in output.

<HARD-GATE> Do NOT skip self-evaluation on important work. Do NOT assume your first answer is correct. Do NOT ignore evidence that contradicts your conclusion. </HARD-GATE>

The Iron Law

Every conclusion must survive a deliberate attempt to disprove it.

When to Use

Before finalizing important work
When you feel uncertain about your reasoning
After completing complex analysis
When the stakes of being wrong are high
When you notice yourself making assumptions
When you want to improve your thinking process

When NOT to Use

Trivial decisions with low stakes
When speed is the only constraint
When you've already done a thorough self-evaluation

The Process

Bias	Question	If Yes, Fix
Confirmation	Did I only look for evidence that supports my view?	Actively seek disconfirming evidence
Anchoring	Am I too influenced by the first piece of information?	Re-evaluate from scratch
Availability	Am I over-weighting recent or vivid examples?	Consider base rates
Overconfidence	Am I more certain than the evidence warrants?	Calibrate confidence to evidence
Sunk Cost	Am I continuing because of past investment?	Evaluate from current state
Framing	Would I decide differently if the problem were framed differently?	Reframe the problem
Groupthink	Am I agreeing because others agree?	Consider the opposite view
Dunning-Kruger	Do I know enough to know what I don't know?	Identify knowledge gaps
