Here's some things I do.
1. Make predictions over short (next day, next hour) to long (next month,year) term. When you are right or wrong ask why. Make a hypothesis and test it out in your next prediction. You can and should do this with everything.
2. Understand how measurement correlates to meaning. Study metrology even, Measure things constantly and form your judgements and opinions from measurements.
3. Accept you and all humans are not rational (when was the last time you made an everyday choice after computing the mathematical probabilities) but driven by emotions and gut desires which are rationalized. You can read books about this but most of the time knowing you are biased wont protect you or stop you from being biased. Accept this, learn, strive to be better anyway, dont get frustrated.
4. Surround yourself by people who don't agree with you on everything.
5. Take on and argue for things you don't agree with or like to the point of being able to convince other people of them. It forces you to see another side of an issue and can be a good way to gain additional insight.
