Welcome back to the Flex Diet Podcast. I'm Dr. Mike T. Nelson, and today I'm diving into the frigid but fascinating world of cold water immersion with Dr. Thomas P. Seeger — a true pioneer in sustainable engineering and a leading voice on cold exposure.We break down the latest science behind cold plunges, including how they impact brown fat, metabolism, HRV, testosterone and overall resilience. Tom also shares key takeaways from his excellent book Uncommon Cold, and gives us a peek into the thinking behind his company, Morozko Forge — makers of some seriously high-tech cold tubs.We even get into my own experiences with cold immersion, what's hype and what's helpful, and how to safely integrate it into your routine for health and performance gains.Sponsors:Tecton Life Ketone drink! https://tectonlife.com/ DRMIKE to save 20%LMNT electrolyte drink mix: miketnelsonlmnt.comDaily Fitness Insider Newsletter: https://flex-diet.kit.com/bfa1510fa8Triphasic 2 book now available!Go to https://triphasic2.com/Episode Chapters:05:09 Welcome Dr. Tom: Cold Plunge Setup06:20 The Science Behind Cold Plunges07:13 Physiological Responses to Cold Exposure17:00 Brown Fat and Metabolic Health26:48 Psychological Resilience and Cold Exposure49:12 Heart Rate Variability and Cold Immersion52:43 Starting a Cold Water Immersion Routine55:53 Psychological Tricks and Cold Exposure56:29 Individual Differences in Cold Tolerance57:43 Optimal Time and Temperature: A Myth58:07 Cold Training vs. Medical Fallacies01:02:33 Testosterone and Cold Exposure01:05:59 The Uncommon Testosterone Book01:11:53 TRT and Natural Alternatives01:19:37 Personal Experiences and Recommendations01:26:07 Morozko Forge: The Ultimate Ice Bath01:34:47 Final Thoughts and Recommendations Flex Diet Podcast Episodes You May Enjoy: Episode 202: Cold water immersion and the body's regulation systems: An interview with Dr. Dwayne Jackson Episode 114: How To Be More Robust and Antifragile with Cold Water Immersion and Sauna: The Barbell Model of Phys FlexConnect with Dr Seager: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/seagertpMorozko Forge: https://www.morozkoforge.com/Uncommon Cold: https://www.morozkoforge.com/post/uncommon-cold-bookGet In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmiketnelson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn1aTbQqHglfNrENPm0GTpg

A system that grows stronger from chaos? That's not science fiction. It's nature's original design. Nassim Taleb's Antifragile isn't just a book. It's a lens—a way to see the world not as a series of risks to be avoided, but as opportunities to evolve. In this episode, we explore what it means to thrive in disorder. From ancient myths like the Hydra, to modern jobs and biological systems, we trace the pattern: fragility is punished, antifragility is rewarded. What if you built a life where setbacks made you better, not bitter? Where unpredictability wasn't a threat, but a catalyst? That's the shift we're inviting you to make. Takeaways: Design your systems to gain from shocks, not just resist them. Embrace small failures—they prevent catastrophic ones. Seek environments where your upside grows with uncertainty. WORKSHOP - Building certainty in an uncertain world

In this episode, I connect with Seth Kaplan, author of the recent book "Fragile Neighborhoods" and a recent article "The Real User Interface: Recovering Our Neighborhoods," for a conversation about the challenges of our current community designs and how we can make our neighborhoods less fragile, or to channel Nassim Taleb, make our neighborhoods "Anti-Fragile" once again.Seth argues that our planners and engineers have built a physical landscape optimized for cars but minimized for actual human relationships, suggesting that the automobile is arguably the technology that has made the biggest impact on our associational life while our spread-out community design isolates and divides, weakening the bonds that tie us together. This is especially problematic for children, whose opportunities for spontaneous free play—and the constructive friction that self-organized activities create—are further limited when the physical landscape discourages exploration. He emphasizes that having meaningful destinations within comfortable walking distance is key to building strong ties between us.Thank you so much for tuning in!

Have you ever felt caught in the crossfire between gentle parenting and raising resilient kids?   As a parent in today's world, I constantly wrestle with how to validate my children's emotions while still helping them develop the strength to face life's inevitable challenges. This tension between empathy and resilience represents one of the most significant parenting dilemmas of our time.   In this special 100th episode, I'm diving into a concept that has transformed my approach to parenting: preparing the child for the road, not the road for the child. Join me this week as I introduce you to the concept of antifragile children—those who don't just bounce back from challenges but actually grow stronger because of them. I share three practical strategies to foster this quality in your children, helping them develop the emotional equivalent of "stress wood" that will enable them to stand tall through life's inevitable storms.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://planningplaytime.com/100

A continued discussion of the NATO debacle. It is time for America to completely reassess alliances and partnership around the world starting with NATO and then working its way down the list of useless and toxic relationships and promises to commit American blood and treasure to flashpoints planet-wide. The sheer insanity of EU/SSR behavior and the total inadequacy of NATO as a military organization across the entire martial spectrum. NATO insisted after the wall 1989-91 fell that the NATO blob would NOT expand eastward. It did. America should take a non-interventionist pause and get its internal house in order before standing astride the world again and lighting fires that never go away and continuously make things worse. Stop the madness.

What separates organizations that thrive in uncertainty from those that struggle? In this episode, Luca Dellanna - management consultant, researcher, and author - explores how companies can move beyond theoretical decision-making to ensure real-world execution and resilience. In this episode, Luca unpacks key concepts like ergodicity, antifragility, and the role of behavioral dynamics in shaping organizational effectiveness. Stating how “Decision-making is only as good as execution,” he emphasizes the need for organizations to create systems that surface problems early and drive real adaptation.He also challenges the notion that architecture alone can ensure antifragility, suggesting that qualitative insights, cultural alignment, and leading by example are all essential in building adaptable organizations.In this episode, Luca provides a reality check on common management approaches, indicating why many organizations fail to turn strategy into action. He highlights why leadership by proclamation is ineffective without visible commitment, how organizations often create misaligned incentives, and why cultural shifts require more than just top-down mandates. Drawing from real-world examples, he also shares how true organizational change comes from daily, repetitive micro-level decisions.Tune in, as we discuss how to avoid the cost of irreversible consequences, and instead structure for long-term wins that build anti-fragile organizations prioritizing survival over performance. Key Highlights

Engaging in deliberate practice, continuous learning, and fostering open communication are critical for building antifragile leadership. Antifragility challenges the way leaders think about resilience, adaptability, and growth. On this episode of The Forward Thinking Podcast, FCCS VP of Marketing and Communications Stephanie Barton is joined by Nicole Brusewitz, VP of Leadership Development, Learning and Consulting Services at FCCS. Together they discuss a superior approach to resilience – one that doesn't just withstand uncertainty but thrives in it.   Episode Insights Include:   The power behind antifragility Antifragility is not just about bouncing back in the face of uncertainty or change. Antifragility harnesses disruption to grow stronger. Controlled strength is required to self-rescue in difficult times Building strong systems, skills and mindsets is essential to strength when things go wrong.   Thriving in uncertainty In the last five years, the focus has been on bouncing back. It's time to advance. Don't just react to change. Benefit from it. Muscle growth comes from tiny tears and repairs. This applies to business strength as well.   Adapting antifragility in the workplace Cultivate a company culture of antifragility by intentionally deciding to thrive in uncertainty. Be strategic – the more change that is introduced into the workplace, the more employees will begin to resist the change. Practice antifragility before it is needed.   Practice antifragility Identify pain points and bottlenecks in the workplace, then engage frontline employees in implementing programs for improvement. Expand decision-making authority as solutions are put into place. Proactively implement strategies before frontline actions are needed. Build on success in manageable increments that don't create additional stress. Don't create change simply for the sake of change.   Introducing small-scale stressors  Amazon's approach to innovation explored antifragility in controlled ways. Consider the introduction of Amazon's Fire phone and Amazon Prime memberships. Controlled chaos is essential in achieving effective antifragility. Chaos should never be a total surprise.   Overcoming common leadership struggles  Leaders often think that instability is inherently bad – recognize that it encourages growth. Embracing change and uncertainty recognizes that it is unavoidable. Bulldozer parents try to remove every obstacle in their child's path – antifragility leaders avoid this approach. Work alongside and encourage team members while allowing them the growth that comes with their struggle.   Antifragility and technology disruptions Technology advancements can both encourage antifragility by introducing disruptions and also making businesses more adaptive. AI can be used to enhance flexibility and antifragility. AI is a tool for efficiency and adaptability.   Habits for introducing antifragility Find ways to deliver deliberate discomfort. Encourage feedback from your team that is outside your comfort zone. Regularly and deliberately invite discomfort into your routines. Don't just prepare for disruption, train yourself and your business to benefit from it.   This podcast is powered by FCCS.   Resources   Connect with Nicole Brusewitz — Nicole Brusewitz   Get in touch   info@fccsconsulting.com   “Building strong systems, skills and mindsets is essential to strength when things go wrong.” — Nicole Brusewitz   “Antifragility is not just about bouncing back.

Antifragile is a concept created by Nasim Taleb, author of the Black Swan, to describe the ability to gain and prosper amid confusion and disorder. Certain people thrive in this environment and President Trump is a prime example of this ability. In this commentary we discuss how antifragility is this secret sauce that contributes to America's greatness.

Welcome back to Season 13 of the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast! In this episode, we explore Part 3 of our review of Grant Bosnick's book on self-leadership, focusing on Chapters 10 to 13. Discover how the latest neuroscience research can enhance your skills in persuasion, time management, change, and agility. Dive deep into the nuances of persuasion and influence, learn effective time management techniques, understand the brain's response to change, and enhance your mental and physical agility. Join us as we uncover insightful strategies to apply in your leadership journey. And we will now resume PART 3 of our 4-PART review, to sum up last year, 2024, and our entire year studying one book, Grant Bosnick's “Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership: A Bite Size Approach Using Psychology and Neuroscience” that we first dove into with our interview on EP #321[i] the end of January 2024. The goal was that each week, we focused on learning something new, (from Grant's book) tied to the most current neuroscience research, that builds off the prior week, to help take us to greater heights this year. It honestly shocked me that this series took the entire year. We began with PART 1[ii] and the first 5 chapters of the book. PART 2[iii] we reviewed chapters 6-9 of Grant Bosnick's Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, and today, PART 3, today, we will review chapters 10-13. We will finish with PART 4, Chapters 14-16 after we release our FIRST interview of 2025, coming next weekend.                                                                                  ((On today's EPISODE #357 PART 3 of our review of Grant Bosnick's Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, we will cover)): ✔ EP 336 Chapter 10[iv]“The Neuroscience of Persuasion and Influence” ✔ EP 337 Chapter 11[v] “The Neuroscience of Time Management” ✔ EP 339 Chapter 12[vi] “The Neuroscience of Change” ✔ EP 342 Chapter 13[vii]    “Mastering Mental and Physical Agility” If you have not yet taken the leadership self-assessment, or if you would like to re-take it to see if the results are different for you than last year, you can click the link here to find the quick test. I re-took the assessment for 2025, and did notice some similarities and some differences. See what you notice about yourself. I noticed that pathways 2 and 3 are my high areas of focus this year, and that I can drop pathway 6 from my focus. What about you? If you have a few minutes to spare, take this leadership self-assessment again, and see if you notice any changes in your areas of focus for 2025. Did any of your pathways shift for you, since last year? This is an incredible way to be laser focused on pathways that will move the needle of success for YOU this year. ✔ EP 336 Chapter 10 “The Neuroscience of Persuasion and Influence” On this episode, we looked at Jack Carew's classic book from 1987 called You'll Never Get No For an Answer that was covered on EP 176.[viii] Carew looked at the unique strategies that American Author and Salesman Og Mandino encouraged us all to read to improve our communication and influence with others and I noticed that Strategy 2 was to stop looking out for number one and always look for how you can help others first. So, after noticing this, I went straight to Chapter 10 of Grant Bosnick's book, on “Persuade and Influence” to see what he had to say on this topic. Right off the bat, in the opening of this chapter, Bosnick asks us to think about how we would persuade someone else to do something, like give you a pen you would like to have, for example, or ask for a promotion, or ask someone to do something you would like them to do. Then he differentiates the word persuade that he says “we can think of as quick, more direct, more for short-term or immediate gain” (Chapter 10, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership) while influence he says “is softer, more subtle, much more for longer term and lasting gain.” (Chapter 10, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership) Persuasion Bosnick says is “more tactical, whereas influence is strategic.”  He gives us the history of persuasion, explaining its origin from the early Greek Philosophers, and that Aristotle wrote about three modes of persuasion: logos (that's about logic and reason), pathos (that's about emotion and inspiration) and ethos (that's about the speaker's own character and credibility). Thinking of Jack Carew's second tip in his book to improve our influence with others (by putting other people first) I think is a good example of a strategy that builds this concept for long-lasting gain (influence) versus persuading someone to give me something that I need for short-term, or immediate gain (like, to pass me their pen, so I can write down something important that I'll need to remember).  I want to build influence with others, that's long-term, that I think includes logic and reason (logos), emotion and inspiration (pathos) and a person's character and credibility (ethos). All 3 of the modes of persuasion, to me, make up longer term influence with someone. We learned on this episode that “There are 6 short cuts to increase the chances that someone will be persuaded or even better, influenced by us” (Robert Cialdini) We covered the first three is Robert Cialdini's book: 1. Reciprocity: We are obliged to give back, if we have been given something. Use the neuroscience of influence and persuasion, and think of ways to help others first, instead of thinking what you can gain from other people, think of what you can give to them. Always be the first to give and take the time to make sure what you are giving is actually useful to that person. This way, what you will give will have meaning to that person. 2. Scarcity. If something is scarce, we want it more. Use this by highlighting the Benefits, Uniqueness and Possible sense of Loss. Take the time to find out how what you are offering to someone else, will help them. You will need to find out what they are looking for to do this, by asking questions, and listening. Then you can “frame what you are saying/offering, so others will find it to be valuable”[ix] especially if it is something that is difficult to come by, or scarce. 3. Authority. We are more likely to comply with a request if it is coming from a perceived authority/expert. Being introduced by others FIRST is a fast way to have others learn about your expertise, making you instantly more influential and persuasive, rather than you introducing yourself. My take-away from this episode: If I want to improve my influence, it begins with understanding the wants and needs of others first (how can I help them) and then being able to say what I mean, and mean what I say. The words I speak do matter when I'm working on gaining influence.  If I'm speaking with someone, and not being completely honest, or not meaning what I say, I know that this can be felt by the other person, and it will hurt my ability to gain trust, rapport and influence. Our brains really can detect “benefits and threats”[x] and I want to be sure that I'm drawing those I want to interact with towards me, not away from me. Once I have gained influence with someone I am speaking with, then I can take my persuasion skills to the next level, and we can begin to work together on our common goals. REVISIT THIS EPISODE TO REVIEW THIS CONCEPT IN DEPTH ✔ EP 337 Chapter 11 “The Neuroscience Behind Effective Time Management” This topic we covered early on our podcast, with a video from author Kent Healy, who wrote Success Principles for Teens[xi] that he co-authored with Jack Canfield. Kent created a video for me (many years ago) that we used with students in the classroom, and I featured this video on EP 33[iv] of our podcast that was called “Time Management, the Greatest Asset We Have” and Kent gives a perspective to the amount of time we have, in a way that 15 years later, I've still not forgotten his words in this video recording. You can watch Kent's explanation of “time management”[xii] with the visuals that he provided, reminding us that “we all have the same amount of time” and he even breaks it down and tells us how many seconds we have every day (84,600 seconds to be exact) every day. While ALL the experts agree that we can't create more time, or change this number, some will say we can use our time to generate more of something else (like energy) but Kent's message was about using this time (these 84,600 seconds we have each day wisely) and focus on what we can control, and that's our personal growth. He gives an example of adding just 15 extra minutes a day towards learning something new, and that adds up to 3.8 full days a year, and asks us to think of what value we put on 15 minutes of time. I loved Kent's point of view, and always respect people who use their time wisely. Then we looked at the Neuroscience of Time Management and learned that our chronotype “the natural inclination of your body to sleep at a certain time or what people understand as being an early bird versus a night owl”[xiii] should be factored into our Time Management Strategy. We learned that “For those people who go to bed around 9:30pm-11:30pm and wake in the window of 6am-8am that there tends to be an increase in (dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine, 0-8 hours after waking, which leads to increases in alertness, attention and focus that are great for analytical work, great for implementation of strategies that you already understand.” Dr. Andrew Huberman with Guest Dr. Adam Grant As we are thinking about the best strategies to manage our activities, projects, the extra time that Kent Healy thinks should go to self-improvement, or even the roles we have in our personal and professional lives, in order to have access to this extra energy, and creative thinking, we will want to plan our “deep” work 0-8 hours after waking (if our chronotype is the wake up early type). So, be sure you understand your own chronotype, and factor the science into your time management strategy. This made me think of Grant Bosnick's Top Energy Drainers: Procrastination Saying Yes to Everything The Perfectionist With this extra energy, and creative thinking, (from better managing our time) I suggested to put it all into creative prolific quality work (the perfectionist in me). I thought, why not use the extra energy to combat against procrastination, while protecting our time by saying no to everything, (at first). I know we can always come back to projects that you would like to do, that have meaning to you, but by truly managing our energy and activities, we are protecting this commodity that we all have in the same amounts: time. This episode also make me think that those 84,600 seconds that Kent Healy reminded me that we all have each day, and how 15 minutes a day (that adds up to 3.8 days/year) can be used even more wisely with this understanding of The Neuroscience of Time Management. Think About These Questions: Do you value your time? Do you value other people's time? Do you think 15 minutes of time really matters? I will also add, have you ever thought of the impact of counting time, down to the amount of seconds that we have each day? How important is 20 seconds of your time? OR, 20 seconds of someone else's time? REVISIT THIS EPISODE TO REVIEW THIS CONCEPT IN DEPTH EP 339 Chapter 12 “The Neuroscience of Change” On this EP we looked at two examples of what happens to our brain when we see something our brain wasn't expecting, like a breathtaking view, or when we land the promotion we worked so hard to achieve, Bosnick explains “we feel like we got a reward. It's a rush. We get a sensation in our brain and a hit of the big neurochemicals” dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, norephinephrine, adrenaline.” (Page 132, Ch 12, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership). However, on the other hand, when we see a bear in the woods, (or snake on the hiking trails), or we are overlooked for a promotion at work, our brain actually sees this “like it's a threat. We feel tense, stressed, pressure…our body physically feels it.” We learned that “Neuroscience has shown us, that the feeling we get from a social or emotional threat (like being passed over for the promotion) is the same as the feeling we get from a physical threat (like seeing a bear or a snake). When we see how our brain interprets “everything and everyone we meet as either a reward or a threat” we can better understand “how our body reacts, (and) our brain and mind think, (leading) to the decisions, behaviors and actions we make.” (Page 132, Ch 12, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership). Next on this EP, we reviewed Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs that led to “Self-Determination Theory” around the year 2000 where researchers found that there were “three physiological needs: the need for Competence (feeling valued for our knowledge, skills and experience), the need for Relatedness (collaborating, connecting or serving others) and the need for Autonomy (being able to exercise self-regulation…to achieve our goals.” (Page 133, Ch 12, Bosnick). We learned that when our ACRES are being met, (our autonomy, competence, relatedness, equity, and sureness) it will put us in a toward state and we will fully embrace everything ahead of us; (but) if our ACRES are threatened, it will put us in an “away state” and will then resist or block things ahead of us. Looking at Bosnick's ACRES example, we examined a work experience in our past, that we did not enjoy, to see where it went against the ACRES Model of Needs. With brain science in mind, we can gain more understanding of why we either enjoyed, or didn't enjoy this experience. It all led back to how our brain either interprets the experience as a reward, or a threat. We also looked at triggers to be aware of to mitigate threat, during times of change. Finally, we looked at how to change our nervous system, to change our actions and behaviors, so we can leave behind a legacy (or fossil record as Dr. Huberman calls it) that we are proud of. We learned that “Agitation and strain is the entry point to neuroplasticity” Dr. Huberman This is when lasting CHANGE is happening at the brain level, and impacting our entire nervous system. So when we are working on something, (like trying to learn something new…like understanding the neuroscience of change for this episode) and that limbic friction feeling comes up, (and I'm annoyed or agitated) when something just doesn't click.  I now have a deeper understanding of what's happening at the brain level after this EP. I will now push forward, stay positive and lean into the change that I know is happening in my brain, as I embrace the change that comes with doing difficult work. The Neuroscience of Change is an exciting topic, and it's only going to be strengthened with the next two topics, Agility and Resilience.   REVISIT THIS EPISODE TO REVIEW THIS CONCEPT IN DEPTH EP 342 Chapter 13   “Mastering Mental and Physical Agility” Which leads us to the final EP of our review today. “Mastering Mental and Physical Agility” Before I even review this EP, I thought of something I saw on Twitter/X this morning that caught my attention. It was a post from Chris S Cornell whose handle is @BiggestComeback and he was talking about his first attempt to run a mile, with a kettlebell. He faced some criticism for this post, as some said it was “dangerous” but mentioned that he thought that “spending your life on the couch with a remote in one hand and a beer in the other is far more dangerous.”[xiv] (Chris Cornell) While this pathway came out as a low priority for me last year, and this year, I have to say, it's definitely NOT an area I leave off to the side. I'm always looking to see how I can push my mind or body, just a bit past where I'm comfortable, and when life is difficult, this is actually where I thrive. While I don't think I could run a mile with a kettle bell, I did run 7 miles today with a 16 pound weighted vest. I really do believe in the mind/body connection and that by doing things that are difficult, we strengthen the brain. We did dive deeper into this concept on EP 344[xv] with “The Neuroscience of Resilience” that we will review next time, but we uncovered that by doing difficult things, we increase the size of a part of our brain called the anterior midcingulate cortex. (Dr. Andrew Huberman). I do difficult things because I want to improve my mental and physical strength, and in turn, increase the size of this important part in my brain that Dr. Huberman says “is not just the seat of willpower…but scientists think it holds the secret in the will to live.” If you are like me, and enjoy doing difficult things, you will enjoy when we looked at three terms from the book Antifragile by N Taleb[xvi] where the author says there are three types of systems, organizations or people. The fragile: which is like an egg and breaks under stress. No one wants to be labeled as fragile. The robust: which is like a phoenix, when destroyed comes back exactly as it was before. This is a step in the right direction, but who wants to emerge from challenge the same as before? The antifragile: gets stronger from uncertainty—like the Hydra from the Greek myth where you cut off one head, two grows back in its place. It gets stronger from the sudden change. We learned that when we face challenges, changes and stressors, we want to become antifragile in the process so that we grow from adversity, and become stronger in the process. While we did go deep into the stressors and triggers that can stop our course of action, Bosnick suggested that we rate our stressors (from a list he provided to jog our minds), on a scale of 1-5. Then he reminds us of the three types of people, showing us how we can and most definitely will grow from adversity, sustaining our peak performance, and finally what we want to take away from this chapter is how to “train our brain to be antifragile in order to be more agile in the moment when we face challenges or stressors.” (Chapter 13, Bosnick, Page 149) I don't think that running a mile with a kettle bell is for me (even if a part of me wonders how far I could go before I would lose the grip of something that heavy), I will continue to challenge my mind, as we learned from our most downloaded series, The Silva Method that “Once we learn to use our mind (to train it) it will do some astounding things, as you will soon see.” REVISIT THIS EPISODE TO REVIEW THIS CONCEPT IN DEPTH   REVIEW and CONCLUSION: To review and conclude this week's episode #357 on PART 3 of our review of Grant Bosnick's Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, we covered a review of the strategies that can help us to implement each concept, from chapters 10, 11, 12, and 13.

What's your definition of success? The way you answer that question will reveal a lot about what you value and how you see the world. In the story of Joseph, we get a very surprising snapshot of what true success looks like. Jospeh experiences back-stabbing betrayal and disgraceful injustice. So there's only one way his story be described as a success: God's favor is not fragile.

Don't assume someone did something because they're a bad person, assume they did it out of stupidity.* Mental Model: George Mack's Razor* When presented with two options, choose the one that brings a greater amount of luck.* Mental Model: Zeitheimer's* Every generation tends to assume their problems are the absolute worst – we forget about the daily struggles of our ancestors* Our generation is complaining about social media addiction – people less than a hundred years ago were dying on battlefields during world wars* Mental Model: Signal vs. Noise* This mental model is all about how to distinguish the high-intensity/useful information (the stuff that actually matters) from the noise* If a book has been around for 100 years, you can assume it'll be around for 100 additional years (this is also known as the Lindy Effect)Defining Mental Models* A mental model is ways of taking principles from different disciplines and applying them to make better decisions* Helpful mental models:* Be careful of actions that would multiple your life by 0* Don't take any risk that might make your life go to zero* E.g: It's great if you exercise and don't smoke, but if you drive drunk you could go to jail or end up deadMental Model: The Map is Not the Territory* Check out Shane's blog post on the topic* A few examples:* A balance sheet is the map of a business, but it doesn't fully represent the company* An employee satisfaction survey (a map) is only a glimpse of the entire terrain (everything going on within the company)* “If you become exclusive to one map, you're less likely to identify when the terrain changes” – Shane Parrish* “There's always an imperfect relationship between reality and the models we use to represent and understand them, but it's necessary in order to simplify things because we can't deal with the world in all of its complexity” – Shane Parrish* Like online dating* The “map” (someone's profile) doesn't match the overall person – they'll often be completely different* The size of your email list is a map, but it doesn't tell you about the territory* It doesn't tell you about the open rates, the engagements, or whether people care if they receive the emails* Business targets/projections are another example* For one, they're often pulled out of thin air* The growth target doesn't, in fact, indicate what's possible* “If you could 10x something, why would you be happy with 5x, and if 5x'ing something is, in fact, impossible, why would you be disappointed with 4x?” – SamMental Model: The Unforced Error* This mental model comes from Super Thinking: The Big Book of Mental Models by Gabriel Weinberg* The concept: do all you can to prepare to avoid bad outcomes* Ex: Dress well to avoid making a bad first impression* Ex: Don't text while driving to avoid getting in a car crash* “An unforced error is the most basic way you can be wrong. Independent of all other circumstances, you done f**ked up.” – ChrisMental Model: Anti-fragility* This one originates from Nassim Taleb, author of Antifragile, and a few other classics – The Black Swan, Fooled by Randomness, and Skin in the Game* The main idea – Become someone who thrives and improves from disorder* Think of a glass cup: if you drop it on the floor (disorder), it breaks (AKA it's fragile)* How can you do this? – There are quite a few ways:* Have multiple sources of income – this way, if you lose your job (disorder), you'll be fine* Exercise and build strength – if you stumble and lose your balance, you're more likely not to hurt yourself* Look for business opportunities where no matter what happens, you'll experience an upsideMental Model: Finding Good in the Bad* This one originates from Josh Waitzkin in his first appearance on The Tim Ferriss Show* It's very easy to get bummed out when it rains and let it affect your mood* Josh realized parents instill this in their kids by encouraging them to stay inside when it's raining rather going out to actually enjoy the “bad” weather* So, he flipped it. Josh taught his son to look at rain and think: “Oh, look at how beautiful it is! Let's go outside and enjoy it!”* George adds – “When everything's going bad, I say ‘good.' When everything's going good, I say ‘bad.'”* When times are good, it's quite easy to take your foot off the gas* When times are bad, it's an opportunity to thriveMental Model: Surround Yourself With People You Admire* “I definitely find the biggest influence in my output and the way I think is who I'm around” – George Mack* Think of two versions of yourself:* In one world, you spend most of your time around a positive and motivational person (like David Goggins)* In another world, you spend most of your time around a sloth (the type of person who always has negative blinders on)* After a year, imagine these two people meet – they'll be completely different!* High agency people actively seek out those they admire and want to emulate* Chris thinks David Perell largely fits this bill – “He's always the dumbest person in the room in one of multiple domains and he keeps changing the domain””Mental Model: Directional Arrows of Progress* This one comes from Josh Wolfe (as discussed in these Podcast Notes). Here's how Josh explains it:* “The half-life of technology intimacy” is a trend related to how we interact with our computers:* 50 years ago, you had a giant computer the size of multiple refrigerators sitting in the corner of a room* The way you would interact would be to flip it's switches, and pull plugs etc.* 25 years ago – we first got personal computers* How did we interact with them? – Mainly through a keyboard and a computer mouse* 12.5 years ago – the dominant form of computers became laptops* Now it's physically on your lap, so the computer has gotten closer to you* 6.5 years ago – the iPhone* It's the last thing we touch at night, as well as the first thing we touch in the morning* You “swipe” it and “tap” it* The only physical barrier with the human body is a thin film of fabric in your pants* 3.5 years ago – the smartwatchGet the FULL COLLECTION Thank you for subscribing.

In episode 84 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast Chloe & Keshia speak to Author Public Speaker & researcher Dr Paige Williams. We invited Paige on after coming across her book "Becoming Anti-Fragile". Anti-fragility is about embracing challenges as opportunities to grow stronger. Dr. Paige Williams explains how small, everyday struggles can build our resilience over time. These "paper cuts" might feel overwhelming in the moment, but they prepare us to handle larger disruptions with greater ease.   Self-compassion is a vital part of parenting. Many parents feel the weight of societal pressures and expectations, leading to feelings of inadequacy or anxiety. Dr. Williams emphasizes the importance of being kind to ourselves and recognizing that parenting is a journey of learning and growth. By focusing on our choices and reconnecting with what truly matters, we can navigate this journey with greater confidence and intentionality.   Parenting is not meant to be done alone. Collective support plays a crucial role in building resilience for both parents and children. Dr. Williams encourages creating a strong community where parents can share their challenges and support one another. Practical tools like the circles of control can also help parents focus on what they can influence, reducing overwhelm and fostering a sense of control.   Flexibility is essential when navigating the gap between expectations and reality. Holding expectations loosely allows parents to adapt to the unpredictability of family life without unnecessary stress. At the same time, drawing on intergenerational wisdom can provide valuable guidance, blending the lessons of the past with the demands of modern parenting.   Dr. Williams highlights the importance of breaking harmful societal norms, such as the "good girl syndrome," which affects both boys and girls. By challenging these stereotypes and modeling healthy behaviors, parents can lead their children toward a more resilient and empowered future. Parenting is a form of leadership, requiring boundaries, intentionality, and a commitment to raising emotionally healthy individuals.   In essence, this conversation reminds us that while parenting can feel overwhelming at times, it also offers countless opportunities for personal growth, connection, and transformation. By embracing these principles, parents can not only navigate the challenges of today but also shape a stronger, more resilient next generation.     Dr Paige can be found at drpaige.au Loved what you heard in this episode?

In this episode I look at concepts that were discussed in Jonathan Haidt's recent book The Anxious Generation. There is much to digest in this book and I am only looking at one part that I feel plays a major role in the development of our kids and the keys to their well-being, mental health, and overall competence. Our kids need to face challenges, obstacles, and have the opportunity for risky play. The lack of these things in their life is creating what Haidt sees as the anxious generation. In addition to exploring the impacts of these things on our kids, I also discuss the impacts on adults. Adults need to continue to grow and push themselves to experience new things or risk facing the same anxiety crippling issues.

Adam Wright is the Director of Mental Performance at the Washington Nationals MLB team. Together they founded The Anti Fragile Academy, and they speak with host Morra Aarons-Mele about how they train corporate leaders to withstand pressure, and improve as a result.

Episode 1483: Derek Sivers explores the concept of becoming "robust" - developing resilience by making decisions that are future-proof and adaptable to unexpected events.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://sive.rs/robust & https://sive.rs/hi Quotes to ponder: "Robust means future-proof. It means taking actions and making decisions that are good no matter how the future turns out."

"If your life is designed only for good weather, you're in trouble when a storm hits."
