Podcasts about Concentration

Ma griotte, la semaine dernière, j'ai dit "Basta"! Et je me suis fixée une règle : LinkedIn, oui, mais avec intention. Objectif : sortir du réflexe qui me fait cliquer dès que je vois une notif. Dans cette Minute Marine, je te parle d'un petit défi que je me lance : réduire ma consommation de contenu LinkedIn pour préserver ma concentration… et mon moral. Rassure-moi: toi aussi, tu ressens un effet un peu cracra après avoir scrollé sans but ? Qu'est-ce que les réseaux sociaux t'apportent au quotidien, dans ton boulot? (Pour me répondre, envoie-moi un mp sur Linkedin

Mon programme La méthode ATLAS : https://robintyonnel.com/programme-la-methode-atlas/

In this relaunch of the PBM Reform Podcast, Greg Reybold returns with a powerful and timely conversation exploring how concentrated economic power—particularly in the form of Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs)—is undermining fair access to prescription medications, driving up drug costs, and crushing independent pharmacies. Greg is joined by Emma Freer, Senior Policy Analyst with the American Economic Liberties Project, a national non-profit and non-partisan organization dedicated to dismantling monopolistic control across critical sectors—including healthcare. Together, they dig deep into how PBMs serve as gatekeepers in the drug supply chain, extracting value at the expense of patients and providers, and how policy reform is urgently needed. Emma outlines how Economic Liberties is driving a new wave of anti-monopoly policy momentum in healthcare by advocating for stronger antitrust enforcement, corporate accountability, and legislative transparency. She highlights how concentrated PBM power not only threatens economic fairness but undermines public health outcomes.

With market volatility front of mind in 2025, we explore equity market concentration risk and what can be done to mitigate it.

The Buddha encouraged his followers to have "respect for concentration."  When we have this respect for concentration, we practice.  We develop our meditation.  We develop in the Buddha's concentration:  jhana.  When concentration, through effort and determination, becomes developed, we're more able to take skillful action in our lives; we're more able to understand our experience of life; we're more able to develop insight; we're more able to know true happiness.  This talk by Peter Doobinin was given in the autumn of 2023. Over there are the roots of trees; over there, empty dwellings. Practice jhana, monks. Don't be heedless. Don't later fall into regret. This is our message to you." (MN 19)

Epilogue: Manjushri's Burden from Journey of Insight Meditation by Eric Lerner I SET THE CHAIN SAW down on the stump of the tree which I had just felled and sat down on the log to drink from my canteen. It was the very same orange water bag I had purchased to take with me to India two years ago. I looked up through the bare November trees at the sun edging toward the apex of its low autumn arc. Then I looked at the piles of cordwood I'd accumulated along the road during the past months. There would certainly be enough for the stoves before the first snowfall. Satisfied, I picked up my saw and headed back to the house. ... by Eric Lerner 2025 20 minutes 58 seconds Listen to Streaming Audio Your browser does not support the audio element.

Johann Hari est journaliste et auteur de plusieurs best-sellers, dont Stolen Focus (traduit en français sous le titre On vous vole votre attention). Dans cet épisode en anglais, nous avons parlé ensemble d'un sujet qui nous concerne toutes et tous : la perte de notre capacité de concentration, cet effritement de notre attention auquel nous sommes confrontés au quotidien, sans vraiment comprendre pourquoi ni comment y faire face.Je dois dire que cette conversation m'a profondément marqué. J'ai découvert Johann à travers ses livres, mais surtout à travers sa rigueur journalistique et sa volonté sincère de comprendre les phénomènes qui bouleversent nos vies. Nous partageons cette curiosité commune, cette envie de creuser au-delà des évidences. Et c'est avec une immense joie que je l'ai accueilli dans Vlan pour explorer ce sujet brûlant.Dans cet épisode, je l'ai interrogé sur les causes profondes de notre distraction chronique. Pourquoi avons-nous tant de mal à lire un livre, à rester concentré sur une tâche ou à avoir une conversation profonde ? Est-ce notre faute ? Est-ce une question de volonté ? Ou sommes-nous les victimes d'un système bien plus complexe, bien plus insidieux ?Johann a voyagé à travers le monde, rencontré plus de 250 experts pour comprendre ce qui sabote notre capacité de concentration. Il identifie 12 facteurs majeurs qui nous volent littéralement notre attention : de la manière dont les réseaux sociaux sont conçus pour nous rendre accros, à l'impact du manque de sommeil, de l'alimentation industrielle, de la pollution de l'air, de l'hyperstress… Rien n'est laissé au hasard.Nous avons parlé de son filleul, devenu incapable de vivre sans ses écrans, de l'histoire édifiante d'un séjour à Graceland, et des ingénieurs de la Silicon Valley rongés par la culpabilité. Nous avons abordé les liens entre attention individuelle et attention collective, et donc les conséquences démocratiques de cette crise. Parce que oui, sans attention, il n'y a plus de débat, plus de dialogue, plus de démocratie.Enfin, nous avons exploré des solutions. Des gestes simples à adopter dans notre quotidien, mais aussi des actions collectives pour transformer le système. Johann appelle à une véritable "rébellion de l'attention", un mouvement pour reprendre le contrôle de nos vies mentales, de notre temps, de notre liberté intérieure.Un épisode puissant, lucide, documenté et profondément humain. À écouter absolument si vous avez le sentiment de perdre pied dans un monde qui va toujours plus vite.Citations marquantes"Votre attention ne s'est pas effondrée, elle vous a été volée.""On croit faire des choix, mais dans un environnement qui est truqué contre nous.""Être interrompu est deux fois pire pour votre QI que de fumer un joint.""Personne ne veut vivre dans le monde que les ingénieurs de la Silicon Valley ont créé.""Nous ne sommes pas des paysans médiévaux : nous pouvons reprendre le contrôle."10 questions poséesPourquoi avons-nous autant de mal à nous concentrer aujourd'hui ?Est-ce que les smartphones ont détruit une génération ?Sommes-nous collectivement malades en tant que société ?Pourquoi croyons-nous être multitâches alors que ce n'est pas possible ?Comment la technologie est-elle conçue pour capter notre attention ?Le monde s'accélère-t-il vraiment, et à quel prix ?Pourquoi le sommeil est-il fondamental pour la concentration ?Que fait l'industrie alimentaire à notre cerveau ?Comment agir individuellement contre la distraction ?Quel modèle économique alternatif pour les réseaux sociaux ?Timestamps clés pour YouTube00:00:00 : Introduction – pourquoi notre attention décline00:02:20 : L'histoire touchante de son filleul accro aux écrans00:08:50 : Smartphones et génération détruite ?00:13:00 : Le mythe du multitâche00:19:00 : L'accélération du monde00:23:30 : Le sommeil et ses effets invisibles00:30:00 : Les algorithmes et la colère comme business model00:38:00 : L'importance de l'oisiveté pour la démocratie00:50:00 : Le besoin d'un mouvement collectif01:04:00 : Changer le business model des réseaux sociaux Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : #280 Addiction aux écrans : reprendre le contrôle avec Kenneth Schlenker (https://audmns.com/uOylwQa) #349 Le superpouvoir de la curiosité avec Alexandre Dana (https://audmns.com/fFNNHqm) Vlan #42 Les algorithmes au coeur de l'économie de l'attention avec Stéphan Eloise Gras (https://audmns.com/ATcgcQw)Distribué par Audiomeans.

Indeed, in most cases, concentration of some variety is a borderline inevitability. Though this often takes the form of customer concentration (the focus of this blog post), it can take other forms as well, including key person concentration, supplier concentration, reseller concentration, and technology/platform concentration, among other forms.The aim of this blog post is to discuss when customer concentration is acceptable (and when it is not), how to incorporate its associated risks into the transaction's price and structure, how to diligence the likelihood of those risks manifesting, and the types of business models where the defection of large customers should be viewed as an expectation, and not as an improbable risk.

Okay, so this week we're talking about one of the most powerful tools we have out there for our focus, our mental health, our community, our families, our children, ourselves - music! We don't even realize how much music plays a role in our lives. And luckily, gone are the days of believing we must work in sterile, silent environments - many (or dare I say most?) brains, including those with ADHD and other EF challenges, truly benefit from some kind of stimulation while doing focused work. The power of music has been studied by researchers so if you'd like to learn more, I've shared some articles in the show notes. But one of the best resources I can recommend is a new book out called Resonant Minds. Written by a daughter and father pair, Sara and Mort Sherman, this book covers all aspects of music - from its impact on the brain and learning, including as a mindfulness practice or as Sara and Mort call it “mindful action”, to its positive impact on individuals and community. I sat down with Sara and Mort to learn about music and share stories about how music has impacted us and others and about, as Sara and Mort say, that music is ultimately about love. Sara and Mort are so uniquely qualified to write this book so I asked them to introduce themselves, and the book Resonant Minds is such a unique book that I knew it was only right for them to describe it, so let's get on with the show!Here are the show notes from today's episode:Learn More About Sara Shermanhttps://mozartformunchkins.com/Learn More About Morthttps://my.aasa.org/AASA/Resources/SAMag/Sep16/InsideSherman.aspxResonant Minds bookhttps://mozartformunchkins.com/resonant-minds-the-transformative-power-of-music-one-note-at-a-time/https://www.resonantminds.comResearch on Music and the BrainMelody for the Mind: Enhancing Mood, Motivation, Concentration, and Learning through Music Listening in the Classroomhttps://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/20592043231214085Keep Your Brain Young with Musichttps://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/keep-your-brain-young-with-musicThe transformative power of music: Insights into neuroplasticity, health, and diseasehttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10765015/The Youth Orchestra Hannah mentioned: https://gctyo.org/Learn More About Our MAP Programhttps://map.worksmartcoaching.comLearn More About 1:1 Coachinghttps://www.beyondbooksmart.com/how-it-worksGet in Touchpodcast@beyondbooksmart.comInstagram/Facebook/Tiktok: @beyondbooksmartcoachingwww.beyondbooksmart.com

Subscribe to our newsletter, the Vulnerabilitea-mail - www.theimperfects.com.au As the title suggests, Nas Campanella is really cool (and accomplished and driven and resilient). You might recognise her voice from the Triple J cinematic universe or know her work as the Disability Affairs Reporter for the ABC. But what you might not know is that Nas is vision impaired, or that a neurological condition means that she can’t read braille either. In this episode of The Vulnerabilitea House, Nas answers the questions “what childhood challenges best prepared you for adulthood?” Chatting to Hugh, Ryan and Josh, Nas talks about her relationship with her disability, and how it shapes her identity. Nas also dives into a powerful conversation with the guys about the role agency and accessibility in the experience of discrimination, and shares why, if a magical operation could restore her sight, she wouldn’t change a thing. Nas, it has been an absolute joy.

Ch. 14 - Time Past and Time Present from Journey of Insight Meditation by Eric Lerner DELHI HOT LIKE A KILN. I wandered through empty streets at midday making final connections. London like a plunge into ice water, only hours later. I stood shivering in the transit lounge, my thin wool shawl wrapped tight around my shoulders, my socks incongruous in Indian sandals, even more incongruous in white pajama clothes, amidst fur and leather coats, heavy sweaters and fat, flushed, liquor-stained faces. I was emaciated by comparison. Crash landing in Boston, hours late. Time sense destroyed. I slept last in Calcutta. A strange wakefulness haunted my body. Alert to ponderous events all around me, I followed my breath as a customs official began pawing through my bag. Suddenly he stopped and handed it back to me with an apologetic smile. I felt a rising thickness in my throat to get beyond that door. She would be waiting. At first she wasn't sure she could, but after letters back and forth, she'd finally agreed. ... by Eric Lerner 2025 34 minutes 47 seconds Listen to Streaming Audio Your browser does not support the audio element.

A Year Just Happened in a WeekOverviewThis newsletter issue captures an extraordinary acceleration in technological innovation within an especially intense week, focusing on the broad and deep impact of AI across industries and devices. Listeners get a front-row seat to seismic shifts at major AI players—Google, Anthropic, OpenAI—and how their breakthroughs and strategic maneuvers are reshaping software, hardware, venture capital, productivity, and ethics.What makes this collection compelling is its exploration of AI's layered disruption—from Google's AI-powered reimagining of search and productivity tools, Anthropic's record-breaking AI assistant capable of deep autonomous work, to OpenAI's audacious entry into consumer hardware design with Apple's design luminary Jony Ive. The newsletter also provides reflections on startup funding trends, evolving AI workplace mandates, and foundational debates over AI's ethical architecture and future ecosystem. Together, these pieces sketch a vivid snapshot of an inflection point in AI where technology, business models, and societal stakes intertwine.Key TrendsKey Trend 1: The AI Technology Leap — From Advanced Models to New Product ParadigmsAI development is surging at unprecedented pace, not just in capability but in practical integration across applications and devices. The focus is shifting from conceptual AI to usable, extended-duration, agentic assistants deeply embedded in daily workflows and consumer products.Significance: This trend reflects AI moving beyond isolated bursts of insight or simple chat interfaces to sustained, autonomous collaboration with users, spanning complex reasoning, coding, multi-modal inputs, and tool integrations. This lays the foundation for redefining productivity, creativity, and user experience in the AI era.Key Trend 2: Strategic Hardware Plays and the Battle Beyond SoftwareOpenAI's multi-billion-dollar acquisition of Jony Ive's startup signals a strategic pivot into hardware—building new AI companion devices designed to transcend conventional screens and possibly displace smartphones. At the same time, Google pushes integrated AI experiences centered on search and productivity on existing platforms.Significance: This trend shifts AI competition into physical devices and operating environments, creating new battlegrounds involving design innovation and consumer ownership models, with potentially profound effects on user habits and ecosystem dynamics.Key Trend 3: Venture Capital Evolution in the AI and Tech LandscapeFunding trends reveal concentrated capital flows into AI, with Series B rounds showing volatility but an overarching pivot toward efficiency, profitability, and selective aggressive capital deployment. Seed investing scales with new playbooks supporting early founder engagement and dynamic portfolio strategies.Significance: This trend highlights the ongoing maturation and transformation of venture capital amid AI's rise, balancing risk, returns, and market realities, while exploring creative financing strategies crossing over traditional VC and private equity models.Key Trend 4: Workplace Transformation and AI-Driven ExpectationsLeading companies mandate widespread AI adoption to boost productivity, heighten efficiency, and reshape employee roles. Executives issue candid warnings on AI's impact on jobs while simultaneously emphasizing the opportunity to master AI tools or face obsolescence.Significance: This trend underscores the sociological and managerial upheaval driven by AI in the workforce, where adoption is non-negotiable and where AI influences morale, workflows, and corporate culture at a fundamental level.Key Trend 5: Calls for an Open, Protocol-Based AI Ecosystem vs. Concentration of PowerThere is growing advocacy for “an architecture of participation”—a decentralized, interoperable AI ecosystem fueled by open protocols and multi-agent cooperation—to avoid premature monopolization by dominant platforms. Yet, industry maneuvers reveal increasingly concentrated power among a few mega players.Significance: This sets the stage for an ideological and practical contest over the future of AI infrastructure: will it foster broad innovation and cooperation or become locked under monopolistic control? The ultimate shape of AI's ecosystem has huge technological, economic, and ethical implications.Talking Points for Each TrendTrend 1: The AI Technology LeapTalking Point 1: Anthropic's Claude Opus 4 demonstrated sustained 7-hour autonomous coding and set new benchmarks (72.5% on SWE-Bench), reflecting AI's step from quick interactions to deep, continuous collaboration.> “Anthropic is reshaping the landscape... pushing the boundaries of what machines can achieve in creative and technical collaboration over sustained periods.” (VentureBeat)Talking Point 2: Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro introduces ‘Deep Think' mode for complex multi-hypothesis reasoning, advancing AI's understanding and problem-solving in dynamic environments.> “Gemini 2.5 Pro... features an enhanced reasoning mode called 'Deep Think', evaluating multiple possible answers before responding.” (VentureBeat)Trend 2: Strategic Hardware PlaysTalking Point 1: OpenAI's acquisition of Jony Ive's startup io ($6.5B) marks their largest deal, signaling a major move into “physical AI embodiments” with devices aiming to reduce screen dependence and potentially challenge Apple's dominance.> “They are working on a new device... fully aware of a user's surroundings... designed as a third core device alongside MacBook and iPhone.” (Reuters)Talking Point 2: Google, while heavily AI-centric, remains focused on embedding AI in software and services (Search, NotebookLM mobile, AI Overviews), reinforcing software ecosystems but facing competition on the device front.> “Google launched AI Mode... a 'total reimagining of search'... while rolling out NotebookLM mobile for on-the-go AI productivity.” (FT.com)Trend 3: Venture Capital EvolutionTalking Point 1: AI has grabbed roughly one-third of global venture capital ($100B+ in 2024), showing AI's outsized role in funding flows amid overall tightening of Series B round sizes.> “AI sector dominated global venture funding, doubling from $55.6 billion to over $100 billion in 2024.” (vccafe.com)Talking Point 2: Seed-stage investing is scaling with firms like BoxGroup emphasizing early believer status and collaborative partnerships to back startups through various growth phases.> “BoxGroup makes 40 seed investments annually... focuses on supporting founders without dominating ownership or boards.” (TwentyMinuteVC)Trend 4: Workplace TransformationTalking Point 1: Shopify's CEO Tobi Lutke mandates AI proficiency, linking job security to AI adoption and productivity boosts, signaling new workplace norms amid AI anxiety.> “Before asking more headcount... teams must demonstrate why tasks can't be done via AI.” (NYMag)Talking Point 2: Fiverr's CEO issued stark warnings about AI threat to jobs, urging employees to master AI tools or risk professional irrelevance.> “AI is coming for your jobs... You are expected to do more, faster, and better. If you don't, your value will decrease.” (NYMag)Trend 5: Open Ecosystem vs Concentration of PowerTalking Point 1: Tim O'Reilly and others advocate for protocol-based AI ecosystems (Anthropic's MCP, Google's A2A, Microsoft's NLWeb) fostering interoperability and distributed innovation, echoing open Internet ideals.> “Participatory markets are innovative markets... solutions can come from everywhere, not just from a dominant monopolist.” (O'Reilly)Talking Point 2: Despite open ideals, dominant players like OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic are actively building controlling ecosystems and platforms—OpenAI's language of “operating system” and multi-billion-dollar acquisitions hint at winner-takes-most dynamics.> “It's hard not to feel we are witnessing aggressive maneuvers... pursuing a winner-takes-most opportunity.” (Newsletter Editorial)Discussion QuestionsHow will the shift from AI as a tool to AI as an autonomous collaborator change the nature of work and productivity across sectors?What are the implications of OpenAI entering the hardware space with design leadership from Jony Ive? Can this challenge entrenched tech giants like Apple and Google?Considering venture capital trends, how might the concentration of funding in AI affect startup diversity and innovation outside the AI sector?Are the workplace mandates for AI adoption sustainable, or do they risk damaging employee morale and creativity? How should companies balance AI integration with human factors?What are the pros and cons of pursuing an open AI ecosystem based on cooperative protocols versus the reality of platform dominance by a few major players?To what extent could OpenAI's and Google's competition reflect the longstanding tech ecosystem rivalry between integrated and modular approaches, and what does that mean for consumers?With OpenAI aggressively building an ecosystem and platform, how might regulators or policymakers respond to ensure competitive, ethical AI development?Closing SegmentThis week crystallized a pivotal inflection point—a "Great Leap Forward" in AI's maturity and reach. We've seen models like Claude Opus 4 and Google's Gemini 2.5 evolve into sophisticated, sustained collaborators capable of seamlessly integrating into human workflows and devices. At the same time, strategic moves—especially OpenAI's multi-billion-dollar hardware acquisition—signal a new battleground beyond software into hardware innovation and consumer experience design.The venture capital landscape is adapting rapidly with concentrated AI funding and evolving seed strategies spotlighting early founder support, all while workplace cultures grapple with AI-driven mandates that challenge traditional roles and morale.Beneath these shifts lies an ideological tug-of-war over AI's future architecture—whether it will be governed as an open, participatory ecosystem enabling broad innovation or solidify under winner-takes-all platforms controlled by a few giants.As hosts close this broadcast, invite listeners to ponder: Are we witnessing the dawn of truly universal AI assistants integrated into our lives, or the birth of new digital gatekeepers? And how will individuals and organizations navigate this rapid transition to stay ahead in an AI-powered future?What's clear is this: the year truly just happened, compressed within a single week, and AI stands at the stage center, shaping what comes next.Relevant Links and Sources (for producer reference)Anthropic Claude 4 & Opus 4 Coding MilestoneGoogle Gemini 2.5 Pro and AI Mode DetailsOpenAI Acquisition of Jony Ive's ioOpenAI's Leadership and Profitability FocusVenture Capital and AI Investment TrendsAI Workplace Mandates at Shopify and FiverrTim O'Reilly on Architecture of ParticipationGoogle I/O 2025 Summary and AI Product StrategyEnd of Show Notes This is a public episode.

Ch. 13 - The Essence is Anicca from Journey of Insight Meditation by Eric Lerner THE TWO-BLADED FAN above my head cut ponderously through the thick, hot air. It was late April and the annual three-month heat wave was in full bloom in Madras. My own body temperature had gone amok with some indeterminate fever, and I'd spent the past three days in this hotel room waiting quietly for my illness to pass. It was a comfortable enough place to be sick, with its clean, white walls and stone floors, and outside, a balcony that overlooked gardened courtyards where huge trees reached up to the third tier of rooms. The dark and faintly musky atmosphere was almost Mediterranean. ... by Eric Lerner 2025 53 minutes 16 seconds Listen to Streaming Audio Your browser does not support the audio element.

Ch. 12 - The Great Blind Sea Turtle from Journey of Insight Meditation by Eric Lerner ON MY RETURN TO the monastery from my brief journey out into the world, I had been warmly greeted by the head monk, Nyayaka Maha Thera, and by my two friends Bhikkhus Sunno and Ratanapala, who were convinced that I had returned for good. It was quite a homecoming. I asked Sunno if he might like to take a walk out to my hut one afternoon and have some tea so we could talk. He was quite pleased by the invitation and promised to visit me soon. The days went by, though, and he didn't come. One day after lunch, I sent the young boy who served me food back into the meditation quarters to fetch Sunno. I didn't think it proper for me simply to wander in there unexpectedly. Sunno appeared with a big smile, and after apologizing for not being able to make it to my kuti, invited me to his quarters. ... by Eric Lerner 2025 39 minutes 01 seconds Listen to Streaming Audio Your browser does not support the audio element.

Alexandre Dana est le fondateur de LiveMentor, une plateforme de formation qui accompagne les entrepreneurs dans leurs projets, mais aussi éditeur, auteur, et penseur d'un monde plus attentif, plus conscient. Il vient tout juste de lancer un Carnet de curiosité, un objet qui m'a beaucoup parlé, car il entre en résonance directe avec ce que je cherche à faire avec ce podcast : approfondir, comprendre, ralentir.Dans cet épisode, j'ai eu le plaisir de recevoir Alexandre pour une conversation à la fois intime, dense et passionnée sur la place de la curiosité dans nos vies. Nous avons parlé de ce besoin vital d'explorer le monde, de ce que ça veut dire aujourd'hui d'être curieux à l'ère des contenus courts, des vidéos en boucle, des algorithmes qui nous enferment. Et surtout, comment reprendre la main. Comment ne pas se laisser happer par les feeds infinis et retrouver le goût du temps long.Alexandre m'a partagé la genèse de son carnet, ses influences (notamment le sociologue Niklas Luhmann avec sa méthode Zettelkasten), et son chemin personnel pour passer de la dispersion à la structuration. Il croit, comme moi, que notre attention est précieuse. Et que le papier est une arme puissante pour mieux apprendre, mieux penser, mieux vivre.J'ai aimé sa manière de voir la curiosité comme une boussole intérieure, mais aussi comme une résistance. Résistance à l'instantané, à l'hyper-spécialisation, à la perte de sens. On a aussi parlé d'éducation, de système scolaire, d'hyperconnexion, de fatigue numérique, de burn-out, de la joie de découvrir de nouveaux mondes, et même de confiance en soi.Si vous êtes du genre à collectionner les newsletters, à ouvrir 10 onglets sans les lire, à dire « j'aimerais prendre plus de temps pour lire mais je n'y arrive pas », alors cet épisode est pour vous. Il vous parlera, vous remuera peut-être, mais vous donnera surtout envie de sortir un carnet, un stylo… et de recommencer à penser vraiment.Citations marquantes« La vraie curiosité, celle qui devient une maîtrise, elle prend du temps. »« Prendre des notes sur papier, c'est déjà faire un premier pas vers la structuration. »« On ne résume pas la physique quantique en trois minutes. »« L'attention est devenue un acte de rébellion. »« La curiosité est peut-être le meilleur remède contre la peur de mourir. »10 questions posées dans l'interviewPourquoi as-tu décidé de créer un carnet de curiosité ?Quel est ton rapport personnel à la curiosité ?Comment as-tu pensé la structure de ton carnet ?En quoi le papier est-il une solution face à la fatigue numérique ?Comment structurer sa pensée à travers la prise de notes ?Pourquoi notre attention est-elle aujourd'hui en danger ?Quel est l'impact des algorithmes sur notre curiosité ?Comment retrouver une curiosité active et profonde ?Y a-t-il des contre-indications à la curiosité ?Comment choisir les sujets à creuser réellement ?Timestamps clés (format YouTube)00:00 Introduction et présentation d'Alexandre Dana02:00 Pourquoi la curiosité est essentielle04:00 La genèse du carnet de curiosité07:00 L'importance du papier dans l'apprentissage09:00 Le combat contre les contenus courts et la dopamine14:00 Structurer sa pensée avec la prise de notes20:00 Le concept de polymath et la pensée divergente25:00 Algorithmes, filtres et perte de curiosité32:00 Par où commencer pour ralentir40:00 Les différents usages du carnet de curiosité49:00 Curiosité, frustration et confiance en soi Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : #295 Les étapes de la rencontre avec soi avec Anne Ghesquière (https://audmns.com/FBVhPXW) #206 Comment développer l'esprit critique chez les enfants?
