UGREEN, a leading global consumer electronics brand, announced on March 6 that pre-orders have opened for its latest Maxidok line of docks, an all-new collection of Thunderbolt 5 docking stations for the European market. As a leading docking station brand on Amazon Europe, UGREEN brings next-generation desktop connectivity to the lineup, with higher bandwidth, lower latency, and greater expansion capabilities, providing a significant boost in performance and workflow flexibility. As laptops become thinner and lighter, the trade-off is fewer available ports. At the same time, demand for faster data transfers, multi-display outputs, and external storage continues to rise. The Maxidok line, the latest flagship in UGREEN's Revodok series, is built to resolve these challenges with Thunderbolt 5 technology. It eliminates port and bandwidth bottlenecks that traditional docks struggle with for 4K/8K and multi?device workflows, fully utilising the high bandwidth and advanced display capabilities of Thunderbolt 5. The result is a powerful tool built to accelerate creative workflows and truly help users "Max Out Your Productivity." The Maxidok line offers three new models, all certified for Thunderbolt 5, to meet different needs. Certification ensures strong compatibility with MacBooks in terms of connection stability, transfer speed, and display quality. Positioned as a flagship dock for peak productivity, the UGREEN Maxidok 17-in-1 Thunderbolt 5 Dock integrates 17 ports covering data, video, networking, storage, and charging. It supports bandwidth up to 120Gbps and includes built-in M.2 SSD expansion that enables users to open and edit large 4K assets directly without relying on slower external workflows. The dock delivers up to 240W total power for charging laptops and phones together, while also powering external displays. It also enables single 8K@60Hz or dual 6K@60Hz outputs on macOS and supports three independent displays on Windows systems. The 10-in-1 Thunderbolt 5 desktop hub offers a streamlined and powerful alternative that features dual Thunderbolt 5 ports, 140W total power with up to 100W charging for laptops, Gigabit Ethernet, and multi-display capabilities. Designed to eliminate the need for additional adapters, it consolidates high-use ports into a single, cost-efficient solution. UGREEN will also introduce a dedicated 10-in-1 Thunderbolt 5 Mac mini dock, built to sit flush with the Mac mini M4 chassis while maintaining airflow integrity. It supports native dual extended displays on macOS and delivers up to a single 8K@60Hz or dual 6K@60Hz outputs without requiring third-party display drivers. The Mac mini model also includes built-in M.2 SSD storage expansion, high-speed USB-A ports, SD/microSD 4.0 card readers, and a hybrid cooling system combining an aluminium heatsink with intelligent fan control. By integrating high-speed bandwidth, multi-display performance, stable power delivery, and engineering-grade thermal management, UGREEN is positioning its new Thunderbolt 5 docking station lineup as a productivity upgrade. Designed for workflow?intensive scenarios, the lineup excels in demanding environments such as high?resolution video editing, real?time 3D rendering, multi?app creative production, immersive gaming setups, and multi?screen productivity workstations. Priced at €459.99/£419.99 and €299.99/£249.99 respectively, the flagship 17-in-1 and standard 10-in-1 Thunderbolt 5 docks will be available for pre-order through UGREEN's official website, with sales beginning March 24 on Amazon and direct channels. The Mac mini model is scheduled for release in late April or early May.

Most people think feeling tired, foggy, and “off” is just what happens with age.But what if the real issue is that your cells are running on less fuel than they used to?In this episode of the Kwik Brain podcast, I sit down with Dr. Andrew Salzman, Harvard-trained physician, inventor, and biomedical entrepreneur, to unpack what's happening at the cellular level when energy drops and your brain stops feeling sharp.We break down NAD, a molecule involved in hundreds of critical reactions in the body, why it declines as you age, and how inflammation can accelerate that decline. We also talk about NMN, and why your brain is often the first place you feel the effects when cellular energy dips.In this episode, you'll learn: ☑️ What NAD does for energy, cognition, and resilience ☑️ Why NAD drops so significantly by midlife ☑️ How NMN works as a precursor to support NAD production ☑️ The “bathtub” model: why boosting NAD is not just about adding more, but also slowing the drain ☑️ How inflammation can drive NAD depletion through CD38 ☑️ Why better cellular energy can translate into clearer thinking, better memory, and sharper focusIf you've been feeling like your brain isn't firing the way it used to, your energy is unpredictable, or your focus is slipping, this episode will help you understand what's happening underneath the surface and what you can do to support your brain at the level where performance actually starts: your cells.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There are seasons when effort seems to outpace results. You work hard, try new approaches, send the emails, make the calls—and still find yourself staring at closed doors. Resources shrink. Energy fades. Options dwindle. And quietly, fear begins to whisper: What now? Philippians 4:19 speaks directly into that fear: “My God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.” Notice what it doesn’t say. It doesn’t promise provision according to your productivity, your strategy, or your remaining strength. It points to His riches—not yours. When resources run low, it exposes where we’ve placed our trust. It’s easy to believe provision flows from our effort, our networking, or our careful planning. But God’s supply has never depended on human capacity. His storehouses do not empty. His generosity does not fluctuate. His timing does not panic. In the Old Testament, God instructed His people to let the land rest every seventh year. That rest wasn’t just agricultural—it was spiritual. It was a lesson in trust. Could they believe He would provide even when they weren’t producing? Sometimes running on empty is not punishment. It is invitation. An invitation to rest. An invitation to release control. An invitation to remember that God’s provision flows from His abundance, not your exhaustion. If you feel depleted—emotionally, physically, financially, or spiritually—remember this: your limits do not limit God. When you are empty, He is still full. Main Takeaways God’s provision is based on His riches, not our resources. Seasons of depletion reveal where we place our trust. Resting can be an act of faith in God’s provision. Productivity does not determine God’s faithfulness. When we are empty, God remains abundant.

This week I spoke with herbalist and writer Rachelle Robinett about her new book, Naturally, and some of my favorite ideas inside it: dopamine, novelty, primal motivation and strategies to regulate our nervous systems. We also talk about how the ways we distract ourselves are often attempts at a change in state and how knowing what type of state change we're craving can help us determine not only which herb to work with, but what the desire under the craving actually is. We get into her favorite herb, how she uses it as an alternative to alcohol, as well as how she's evolved within wellness culture and how she's redefining ambition now.   Show Notes / Resources / Mentions: Learn more about Rachelle Robinett on her website Follow Rachelle Robinett on IG @rachellerobinett RSVP Here to a free live event with Rachelle, Herb Club LA, and me on March 9th at 6pm.

What if ADHD isn't just about focus… but about a nervous system stuck in survival mode? Therapist Jennifer Free explains why many ADHD brains are living in chronic fight-or-flight—and why productivity tools like planners and to-do lists often fail. In this episode, Jennifer shares how her own late ADHD diagnosis in graduate school led her to rethink everything she was taught about ADHD treatment. Instead of adding more systems and strategies, she began focusing on nervous system regulation. When the body is dysregulated, executive functioning drops, urgency increases, and people get stuck in a familiar ADHD pattern: on → crash → repeat. Jennifer introduces the concept of “alignment with reality” — learning to match your internal state to what's actually happening instead of fighting reality with thoughts like “I'm behind” or “there's not enough time.” We also explore ADHD in women and motherhood, the cultural pressure to constantly produce, and how productivity for productivity's sake can disconnect us from joy, presence, and the people we care about most. Jennifer shares practical ways to regulate in everyday life, including recognizing signs of dysregulation, slowing the body to signal safety, and identifying the beliefs that keep us stuck in urgency. If you constantly feel rushed, overwhelmed, or trapped by your to-do list, this episode will change how you think about ADHD, productivity, and regulation.

Why beliefs can either cap our potential or push us toward possibility.What you believe about yourself could be holding you back. Fortunately, Nir Eyal says beliefs aren't truths — and you can choose new ones.Eyal is a former lecturer at Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Stanford d.school, a celebrated author, and a renowned expert on human behavior and potential. His latest book, Beyond Belief, reveals how limiting beliefs — like “I'm a bad communicator” — quietly shape what we see, feel, and do. “A belief doesn't have to be true” to limit our potential, he says. But the same holds in reverse: a belief doesn't have to be true to expand who and what we can become. “Beliefs are tools, not truths. It just has to be useful.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Eyal and host Matt Abrahams explore how to identify the beliefs that hold us back — and how to replace them with ones that propel us forward. From keeping a belief journal to practicing perspective-shifting “turnarounds,” Eyal offers practical tips for rewriting the stories we tell ourselves and becoming the people we want to be.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Nir EyalNir's Book: Beyond Belief104.

Artificial Intelligence, or AI, may impact the economy in ways we might not expect.

AI could unlock India's digital economy and help make Indian companies smarter and more profitable. In this episode of The Core Report Special Edition, Financial Journalist Govindraj Ethiraj speaks with Akhilesh Tuteja, Partner & National Leader, Clients and Markets, KPMG India about AI in India, language AI, and how it could reshape India's digital economy and business growth.Artificial intelligence is transforming industries worldwide, but India may have a unique advantage. With a large population, diverse languages, and a growing startup ecosystem, it could unlock massive economic opportunity. Language AI could unlock India's digital economy by bringing millions of non English speakers into the digital ecosystem. Much of the internet today is still dominated by English content, leaving many Indians disconnected from the full benefits of the digital world. With AI powered translation, voice interfaces, and mobile first technologies, language AI could dramatically expand access and accelerate the growth of India's digital economy.The discussion explores how AI could make Indian companies smarter and more profitable by improving productivity, enabling faster decision making, and helping enterprises innovate at scale. From AI powered customer insights and hyper personalisation to automation, document processing, and enterprise intelligence, artificial intelligence is already changing how Indian businesses operate.The conversation also explores the future of India's IT services industry, the role of startups and innovation ecosystems, and why AI may initially disrupt markets before creating even greater value.

“By far, the greatest danger of AI is that people conclude too early that they understand it” —Eliezer Yudkowsky, AI researcher AI is everywhere today, and there are many exciting claims about what it can do to help us be more productive. But, is this just hype, or are there aspects of AI that can improve our productivity?  That's the question I am answering today.  Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin The Hybrid Productivity Course  Get Your Copy Of Your Time, Your Way: Time Well Managed, Life Well Lived The Working With… Weekly Newsletter Carl Pullein Learning Centre Carl's YouTube Channel Carl Pullein Coaching Programmes Subscribe to my Substack  The Working With… Podcast Previous episodes page Script | 407 Hello, and welcome to episode 407 of the Your Time, Your Way Podcast. A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  You may have noticed AI is everywhere. Our favourite apps seem to be adding more and more AI capability with each new update. And then there's almost every video and article on productivity warning us that if we don't get on board with this, we'll be left behind on the scrap heap.  It's also an exciting time, and there's no doubt that things are changing, and people are finding new ways to use AI to help us do our work.  But beyond the hype, how are current AI models really helping with productivity, and what will this mean for us as we try to manage our time in the future?  That's what I am looking at this week, and to get us started, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Chris. Chris asks, Hi Carl, I haven't heard you talk much about AI in your videos or articles. How do you see AI helping us with our time management and productivity in the future?  Hi Chris, thank you for your question.  The reason I have not written or spoken much about AI is that I am waiting to see where it settles down.  Currently, it's hard to work out what is true and what is pure hype. I saw a lot of noise about OpenClaw—an AI-type personal assistant that, if you give it access to your computer, can do a lot of things, such as make appointments for you, book flights, sort and reply to your emails and much more.  That was certainly interesting, but once I discovered that I would need to hand over all my passwords and credit card numbers to OpenClaw, I lost interest.  Call me old-fashioned, but I'm not comfortable giving up my passwords, credit card and banking details to a third party. Certainly not one that could be hacked very easily.  Last year, I read Dominic Sandbrook's series of books on British history from 1956 to 1982. That period covered some very interesting developments in technology, from the dawn of the nuclear power age to the introduction of the personal computer. In the late 1950s, it was predicted that we would all be driving around in nuclear-powered cars and that our homes would have their own nuclear power generators that would only need recharging every 10 to 20 years by the end of the century. Hmm how did that work out?  To better answer your question, Chris, I stepped back and looked at how I am using AI today. My main use of AI is searching for specific information. In a way, AI has replaced how I search the internet. I use Google's Gemini, and it is fantastic at collecting the information I want.  No longer do I have to open multiple websites to try to find the information. This has significantly reduced the time I spend going down rabbit holes looking for something specific and being pulled down holes I never intended to go.  I also use AI to generate subtitles and timestamps for my YouTube videos. Without AI, these jobs would take hours. AI can do it in minutes.  I use Grammarly to spell-check my writing, and I believe it uses AI in the background to suggest how sentences are written.  I rarely accept Grammarly's sentence suggestions. It seems to destroy my voice and turn sentences into bland perfections that lack resonance or feeling.  Beyond that, I am not knowingly using AI for anything else. I asked my wife how she is using it. My wife's a full-time student, studying physical therapy, so she's learning a lot about human anatomy and medical terms.  She's using AI to simplify complex concepts. She also occasionally uses Google's Nano Banana to generate graphics for her presentations.  So, if I look at how AI might help us with time management and productivity in the future, it does look like there will be some aspects of our work that AI can significantly speed up. In my case, generating subtitles and time stamps for videos is a great example.  However, when it comes to managing our calendars and task lists, I'm not sure you would want AI getting involved.  One thing I've always been acutely aware of is that much of what makes us feel overwhelmed is the sense that we have no control over how we spend our time.  We have calendars full of meetings, and sometimes we find ourselves double and even triple-booked. And then we have long lists of to-dos in our task managers with no sense of when or even how we will ever get that work done.  At best, AI may be able to break down those tasks into what it thinks are manageable chunks, but that won't take into consideration how you are feeling physically, whether you slept well last night or had a rather heavy lunch with an important customer.  AI can certainly suggest ways to manage your tasks and calendar, but you will still need to show up to those meetings and do that work.  Yet that will inevitably leave you feeling less in control of your time. Particularly if you use one of those AI-enabled calendars that suggest when you should be doing something.  What happens if you disagree with the suggestion, or you cannot make it? You feel guilty, or you start to think something is wrong with you.  Yet, there's nothing wrong with you. You're human, and you are going to feel tired sometimes or not in the mood to do that type of work.  The one area I would say you want to avoid AI getting involved in is how you manage your time. That should always be your responsibility and choice.  The idea that a computer tells you what to do and where to be is scary. Deciding what you do right now is what makes you human. You've chosen to listen to this podcast at this time. AI would likely tell you that, rather than listening to this podcast, you should be finishing that report you've been trying to finish all week. I also read about the excitement over the idea that AI could reply to your emails for you. Hmm, for me, that is a red line I will not cross.  Call me old-fashioned, but I believe that if someone has taken the time to write to me, I have an obligation to reply personally. That is just basic integrity. Now, it is true I don't reply to all emails. I don't respond to spam emails; for example, I simply delete them if they get through. How hard is that?  I'm fortunate that I'm old enough to remember several technological advancements. It started with the Internet, then email, the smartphone and cloud computing.  I cannot remember a technology being forced upon us, but it feels like AI is being forced on us, whether we like it or not.  And then there are the frightening ads that claim if you are not on board with using AI, you will be left on the career scrap heap by the end of the year. Nobody needed to do that with smartphones or email.  Companies, focused on making the technology user-friendly in such a way that we all wanted to adopt it eventually. The fear-mongering I see around AI makes me deeply suspicious of it. Why do they need to do that?  Perhaps that question is for people better qualified than I am.  Anyway, AI is here, and it's not going to go away.  Where I think AI will be a huge help to us is in repetitive, mundane work. I mentioned that I use AI to create subtitles and timestamps for my YouTube videos. That's been a huge time saver for me.  But if you follow my email processing system, you will find that you are faster than AI. I can clear 80 emails in my inbox in less than 10 minutes. It's also important that I do this, as I want to get a heads-up on my day. To know if there are any emergencies, what I want to read later and what I can delete.  What AI would do is categorise your emails between what it thinks is important and what is not. Trust me, you will do a far better Job of that than AI will.  The problem here is that you will not trust AI 100%, so you will still go through the emails it thinks are not important, just to check that it got it right.  And that's a big problem with AI today, although I accept that in time this may change; people don't trust it, which is a good thing, as AI can hallucinate and give you incorrect information. This means you spend time coming up with the right prompt, get the answer, and then have to check that it's correct.  The question then is: did it really save you time?  I am monitoring AI carefully. I know that in time, it will bring us some productivity benefits, new technologies always do. But there are a few areas where I won't use AI personally.  Writing emails and answering user comments. That's a personal integrity thing to me. Your principles should tell you that.  Managing my calendar. That's another personal thing, and giving control to any outside influence would always be problematic at a human level.  Creating content. If you've read an AI-generated blog post or watched an AI-created YouTube video, you can tell. Large Language Models will always default to the average, not just in the content, but in the words used. It's horrible, and nothing unique will ever come from it.  And finally, deciding what I will do at a task level and when. That's another one that, as a human, I will retain control. I had scheduled to write this podcast script at 11:30 today, but I had a cancellation at 8:00 am, so I switched things around.  I could have gone back to bed, but I felt great, so I decided to get on with this podcast script. My choice, made in the moment.  Thank you, Chris, for your question and thank you to you, too, for listening. It just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive week.   

Welcome to episode #1026 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a time when strategy has become a kind of corporate theater… carefully crafted presentations, ambitious roadmaps and bold declarations that rarely survive first contact with reality… Kevin Ertell has spent a career focused on the harder question: why execution so often fails. Kevin is the Founder and CEO of Mistere Advisory and a veteran operator whose three decades of experience include leading large-scale retail and e-commerce operations at global brands like Nike, Sur La Table, Borders, and Tower Records. Over the years he has developed a reputation as a straight-talking advisor who helps leaders turn complexity into clarity and ambition into measurable results. His work spans industries including technology, healthcare, retail, consumer goods and manufacturing, where he focuses on helping organizations align teams, simplify priorities and build the operating rhythms required to deliver on their plans. In his new book, The Strategy Trap - Why Companies Fail at Execution and How to Get It Right, Kevin draws on decades of frontline experience to tackle a frustrating reality of modern business: most strategies don't fail on paper… they fail in the real world. Through practical frameworks like his Six Cs of Execution (Co-creation, Clarity, Capacity, Communication, Coordination and Coaching) he argues that strategy and execution must begin in the same room, with teams co-creating the plan and committing to disciplined follow-through. Kevin explores how incentives shape behavior, why organizations must slow down to create clarity before accelerating, and how leadership cultures built around coaching and collaboration can unlock real momentum. Grounded in operational experience rather than theory, his work reframes strategy not as a planning exercise but as a team sport that requires alignment, accountability and relentless focus on execution.

Companies are treating AI as an IT rollout rather than a fundamental business transformation.

He outlines the cross-functional framework required for successful AI integration, including HR involvement for workforce transition planning, and demonstrates how AI can fundamentally reshape value propositions and go-to-market channels beyond operational efficiency.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Most of us have an unspoken rule set for modern relationships: Avoid the landmines. But according to Jacob Mchangama, that kind of fear-based self-censorship leads to disconnection. If you can't be forthright about what matters with the people you share life with, you may stay civil, but you won't stay close.In this episode, Michael and Megan sit down with Jacob Mchangama—founder and executive director of the Future of Free Speech at Vanderbilt University—to explore what it looks like to disagree without dehumanizing. They talk about why today's conversations feel existential, how identity gets tangled with beliefs, and how to build habits that keep you grounded when your nervous system wants to go to war.Memorable Quotes“It is much better to confront those differences head-on rather than try to hide them under this veneer of mutual tolerance and respect—which really is not based on mutual tolerance and respect if you can't have those difficult conversations that divide people.”“When you self-censor about issues that are deeply meaningful to you, issues that affect society as a whole, when you think that you cannot speak out on an issue where you think someone that you're close to is wrong… it breeds loneliness. And then if you can only be very forthright about certain issues with a group of people who are completely like-minded, then that might also be self-radicalizing, in a way.”“Approach discussions on social media, for instance, with a mindset of saying, ‘I'm not going into this debate or discussion to win. I'm going into this discussion because I'm passionate about this issue, but I might be wrong.'”“If you have a conversation with someone and you know that you have very different positions on a given topic, you have an opportunity to learn something. Even if that person is not able to convince you about that position, they might have points that make you understand your own position better, or maybe you tweak your own position. Even if you tweak it 5%, that's quite valuable, right?”“If you allow yourself to be in the mindset, again, as I said before of ‘I'm not entering this discussion in order to win. I'm entering this discussion because it's a topic that I'm passionate about. I have certain beliefs, but I am willing to change my mind. I am very cognizant about the fact that I am not omniscient. I am a human being with very limited knowledge.' Just about every person that you meet will have some kind of experience, some kind of knowledge that you don't have, if you are willing to tap into that.”“[When] our identity is wrapped up in that to the point that we can never say we're wrong or we can never say that we made a mistake, that's a really dangerous place, because then you get into this ideological sunk cost fallacy situation where like you can't ever backtrack or change or evolve or grow. And hopefully, in relationships, we are able to evolve and grow. That's one of the gifts of relationships.”Key TakeawaysNot All Self-Censorship Is Bad. Filtering thoughtless comments is basic social wisdom. Silence driven by fear around meaningful issues is what erodes connection.Curiosity Disarms Conflict. Enter hard conversations with a posture of humility: I care about this—and I could be wrong. When you aspire to learn, you probably will.Aim for Understanding, Not Conversion. Even if no one changes their mind, you can refine your thinking and better understand the human story behind the opposing view.Deescalation Is a Skill. If emotions get the better of you, apologizing can reset the tone and invite good faith back into the room.Boundaries Aren't Censorship. If someone consistently denigrates you or refuses meaningful parameters, disengaging is healthy—not a failure.Leaders Set the Temperature. Trust grows when people can challenge ideas (even leadership decisions) without fear of punishment or shame.ResourcesFree Speech by Jacob MchanamaJacob Mchangama's SubstackWatch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/lKzhW8tjL3YThis episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound
