In this week's episode of the Growth Guide podcast, we have the honor of having a conversation with Gloria Mark, Chancellor's Professor Emerita of Informatics at the University of California, Irvine. She studies the impact of digital media on people's work and personal lives, examining multitasking, attention and stress.  She has published over 200 articles in top journals and conferences and her research has been covered in popular media, including the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and more.She joined us today to talk about her recent book, ‘Attention Span: A Groundbreaking Way to Restore Balance, Happiness, and Productivity', which presents the science of how our attention spans have diminished in the digital age, along with solutions for regaining focus and well-being.Our conversation with Gloria revolves around the constraints presented by algorithms, social forces, and personal traits when making choices online. We dive into the impact of cutting off email for a week on productivity and stress levels, the unintended consequences of technology, the pros and cons of AI, and the challenge of maintaining focus in the midst of constant digital distractions. Gloria's insights shed light on how we can navigate the digital landscape to prioritize well-being and maintain a positive store of mental resources. So grab your headphones and join us as we explore the fascinating intersection of technology, attention, and personal growth. [06.10] Work from home – Starting the conversation, Gloria explains the impact that has on our attention when we are working from home. [12.00] Paying attention – We talk about how you get distracted by unconscious actions and how to reduce them.[20.10] Taking a break – Gloria shares her idea on the importance of connecting with nature while we are working and the positive impacts it has on our creativity. [28.50] Shots – We talk about how short videos on social media cause us to have short attention spans.[36.00] 40 seconds – We dive into the research findings about the 40-second length of attention we have on any screen before switching to something else.[44.00] Artificial intelligence – Gloria talks about the lack of creativity when using artificial intelligence to create content. [50.42] Free will – We talk about how a neurotic person can still extend their attention span even if they have more challenges than someone who's not neurotic.[59.05] Electronic communication – The imbalance between the sender and the receiver in an electronic communication.[01.04.47] Four properties – Gloria explains the four properties of human agency; intentionality, forethought, self-regulation, and self-reflection.[01.17.21] Well-being – We end today's conversation with Gloria's suggestion of putting our well-being first rather than using technology to exhaustion.ResourcesConnect with GloriaWebsite - gloriamark.com/ Newsletter - https://gloriamark.substack.com/Twitter - twitter.com/GloriaMark_PhD LinkedIn - linkedin.com/in/gloriamark/ Book by Gloria MarkAttention Span: A Groundbreaking Way to Restore Balance, Happiness and ProductivityBook by Daniel KahnemanThinking, Fast and SlowBook by Robert H.

The importance of fiber Quotes "It makes sense that the disease of alcohol and the disease of sugar should be the same, and that's why children now get type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease without alcohol." [5:01] "It turns out there are a whole lot of mitochondrial toxins out in our environment. But the mitochondrial toxin that you have the most control over, that you could deal with yourself in a flash and get rid of about 85% of the mitochondrial dysfunction in your body in one fell swoop, is the molecule fructose, which is one half of sugar."

It’s become a cliché to say that great ideas come in the shower. But the fact is – they do! And there is actually a psychological explanation for why that is. We begin this episode with a look at the reason for this common experience. http://mentalfloss.com/article/52586/why-do-our-best-ideas-come-us-shower What’s the difference between pleasure and happiness? It’s an important distinction because the more pleasure you seek, the less happy you become. That’s the contention of Dr Robert Lustig, author of The Hacking of the American Mind: The Science Behind the Corporate Takeover of Our Bodies and Brains (https://amzn.to/2yp2xMf). Dr. Lustig sees some troubling developments in our quest for pleasure and I think you’ll be interested in what he has to say. When you make a salad and you rinse the lettuce and carrots and tomatoes under the faucet for a few seconds. Does that really get rid of the pesticides and bacteria? We explore that very important question and you really need to hear the answer. http://www.menshealth.com/how-to-wash-produce Nobody likes to fail – but maybe we should all rethink that. Failure turns out to have a silver lining – and not just in the way that “Every cloud has a silver lining.” Chris Gethard is a pretty successful stand-up comedian who has written a book about failure called Lose Well (https://amzn.to/2CpJcgz). Although Chris has had some clearly successful moments (his own HBO special and his own sitcom on Comedy Central for example) he has also had some colossal failures. He joins me to discuss why failure is inevitable and really something to be celebrated on your journey to success. PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!

Do you know your "why"? Many people go about their day without a sense of purpose in mind. Though we sometimes miss out on things that ARE important because we feel obligated to a thing, a job, a person, or somebody else's why. This is the cause of the mid-life crisis. This is the reason so many people are unhappy and unfulfilled. This is the sad and unfortunate reality of our society. We discuss the importance of having a "why", how and why discovery happens, and when our "why" shows up.

Dr. Robert Lustig (@RobertLustigMD) is Professor emeritus of Pediatrics, Division of Endocrinology at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), where he specializes in the field of neuroendocrinology – in other words, how the brain regulates hormonal activity in the body. His research and clinical practice has focused on childhood obesity and diabetes. Dr. Lustig believes the food business has hacked our bodies and minds to pursue pleasure instead of happiness, by pushing processed food loaded with sugar. As you’ll see, the way sugar triggers our brain chemistry isn’t a whole lot different from the way technology triggers our brain chemistry, which is relevant to prior discussions I’ve had on the podcast about how technology shapes behavior. Dr. Lustig points to this confusion between pleasure and happiness as having fostered today’s epidemics of addiction and depression. Getting your creative work out into the world, and finding a way to love your work, both require that you have a healthy relationship with your mind, and your definition of happiness. This is why I was extremely excited to come across Dr. Lustig’s book, The Hacking of the American Mind: The Science Behind the Corporate Takeover of Our Bodies and Brains. It really brought a scientific explanation to much of what I’ve been searching to explain here on Love Your Work over the past few years. In this conversation, you’ll learn: Why are pleasure and happiness neurologically different phenomenon? How do we confuse them for one another? How does the pursuit of pleasure reduce your ability to experience pleasure? The more pleasure you pursue, the harder it becomes to be happy.

Not every suggested-diet you find online will work for you. Find out in this latest episode of the Enduring Health Podcast why you should be wary of the diet you choose. Today Dr Shan talks to Patrick Holford, the author of The Hybrid Diet. Patrick describes the many health benefits you get from trying this simple approach to healthy eating. KEY TAKEAWAYS The cell’s energy house, the mitochondrion, runs on glucose which we get from carbohydrates, or ketones which we get from fats. Muscle cells can burn fats but the brain and neurones can’t, so we need both. When your body undergoes ketogenesis, it undergoes a cellular repair process which cleans up the mitochondria. Taking supplements is very effective to get enough amount of nutrients for your body. If it is not balanced, you’ll need more nutrients to make it balanced. Low carb, high-fat diet can hugely help people with Type II Diabetes and even people with multiple sclerosis. Our diet and nutrition have evolved ever since the pre-historic area. Our diet right now is a high seafood diet containing selenium, b12, omega-3, etc. For people experiencing dementia, they may have degenerating cells because they’ve been eating a lot of carbs and sugar. If you reduce carbs and stick to fats that produce ketones, the nugget cells come back to life. To ensure that your brain is in a healthy condition, one must get checked if he’s getting the right nutrients (e.g. omega-3, phospholipids, etc.) 4 primary underlying processes that go wrong: -Blood sugar -Fats   -Antioxidants -Methylation of B vitamins How long do you have to avoid carbohydrates to start getting any sort of effects? 18 hours minimum. The Hybrid Diet makes the individual the master of his own metabolism instead of sticking to the available diet. BEST MOMENTS “It is not only the diet is quite important. For conditions, it’s diet and also supplements is the most effective to release side effects.” “Neurones – brain cells and nerve cells – have the ability to run only on ketones.” “There’s plenty of places where diabetes, heart disease, cancer don’t exist.” “I’ve done an 18-hour carb fast. It’s a phenomenally easy way to lose weight. You do get a consistently high energy level, clear brain function, and so on.”   VALUABLE RESOURCES What is HbA1c?

Midweek Thoughts are shorter and easily digestible episodes for those in a time crunch. You'll hear about the books and music that impact us, and what we took away from it. This week, Tim and Jon fight boredom. Well...try to. This conversation was inspired by the book "The Hacking of the American Mind: The Science Behind the Corporate Takeover of Our Bodies and Brains" by Robert Lustig. Why do we constantly feel the need to occupy our brain space? Why do we pick up the phone during a tv show and scroll through social media? How do we fight this? Find out on this week's episode.

In the last few decades, Americans have become fatter, sicker, more depressed, more addicted, and, often, unhappy. At least, that’s according to physician Robert Lustig, author of the book “The Hacking of the American Mind: The Science Behind the Corporate Takeover of Our Bodies and Brains.” He says that we’re facing four big crises in our country: a health care crisis, a social security crisis, an opioid crisis, and a depression crisis. And he argues that while these crises might seem different, they’re really all about the confusion of “pleasure” and “happiness.”
