My guest is Michael Easter, a professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and best-selling author. We discuss how particular daily life choices undermine our level of joy, our sense of purpose, our physical and our mental health and the daily, weekly, monthly and yearly steps we can all take to vastly increase our level of motivation, gratitude and overall life satisfaction. We discuss how effortful foraging for information, undistracted reflection and physical exercise are ways to ‘invest' and therefore grow our levels of dopamine, energy and motivation, whereas low-friction activities are specifically designed to hijack or diminish them. We also discuss dopamine reward circuitry in the context of how to build and reset one's energy levels and create a deeper sense of purpose in work, creative pursuits and relationships.

Thank you to lovely LTO listener, Liz Stafford for this week's BRIEF topic suggestion of First World Problems! There's a lot of huffing and puffing in the chat, with bloody good cause - these are serious issues, alright?!!!! Er, and they are also absolutely indicative that we are ageing at a rate of knots. Stomach knots. Let's get ourselves in perspective. And get it all out in a cathartic manner. Without getting stuck on any door handles, or missing out on Oasis tickets (well, actually Susie, there's not much you can do about that one...) Hope you enjoy this week's mini episode. And please do sign up to be in the LTO Community - it's purely an infrequent newsletter of manageable length, and the chance to suggest future LTO BRIEF topics. Huzzah! SIGN UP HERE! Love from Susie & Esther xx Please do share this episode with anyone you think would enjoy it. And if you haven't already rated and reviewed LTO, we would be eternally grateful if you would!

The Rush Hour Melbourne Catch Up - 105.1 Triple M Melbourne - James Brayshaw and Billy Brownless
Billy kicks the show off with some wonderful astronaut news, before JB takes over the All Sports Report to take down the AFL MRO and Tribunal. The best caller in footy, cricket, basketball, and everything else Jack Heverin is in studio to preview tonight's NBL Finals Game 4 between Melbourne United and Illawarra Hawks, then it's a controversial Hump Day Quiz. JB is pumped that Happy Gilmore 2 is close to being released, Billy has some news you might've missed, and we ask for your First World Problems. Melbourne Storm's Josh King is in studio as they prepare for a GF Rematch against Penrith, and Billy has a very inappropriate Knock Knock Joke to close us out.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
