Podcasts about thinking better

Your brain is actually changing and developing. And what you do affects that development. What can you do to focus and think better?  

The better you communicate, the stronger your messaging will be, and, more importantly, the better your relationships will be in life. I believe this to my core. The more I've worked on communication, the stronger my relationships have become with my wife, my parents, my friends, my coworkers, and so on! My students share the same story. Because the more you understand how humans process information, the better you'll be at helping them feel heard and seen.   So, in this episode, I'm diving into effective ways you can tap into what your audience is thinking. Listen in and discover the type of individual who has the hardest time marketing (and how to shift), 5 ways to understand what your audience is thinking, how our mind works when it comes to communications, and some stories and analogies along the way for clarity. If you work on and implement the strategies in this episode, I truly believe you'll experience deeper, stronger, and more effective communication.   Did you enjoy this episode?

The concept of needing years, not just weeks or months, to master a skill 2. Building Powerful Relationships: How the podcast has helped me build meaningful connections in the health and fitness industry. The value of relationships with inspiring women and experts who have contributed to the podcast. 3. Moving Away from Self-Absorption: The impact of self-absorption on our ability to be generous. Balancing self-absorption with generosity and seeking feedback. 4. Seeking Feedback, Not Just Recognition: The importance of looking for constructive feedback over seeking constant praise. The role of energy levels in how we perceive and seek feedback. 5. The Body of Work is the Point: Emphasising the value of the practice, process, and body of work. How focusing on the journey, rather than the outcome, leads to growth and success. 6. Thinking Better, Not Bigger: The significance of aiming for better quality rather than just bigger results. Applying this mindset to training and other aspects of life. 7. Creating Passion and Desire for Your Work: The necessity of cultivating passion and desire in what you do. Strategies for maintaining motivation and creativity in long-term projects. 8. Balancing Selfishness and Generosity: Understanding when being selfish is necessary for self-care and energy.

Data from Gallup tells us almost 60% of us read 5 or less books/year and the overall average is about 1 book/month, with half of those being fiction. To me, books are an opportunity to tap into the wisdom of some of the world's brightest and most insightful people for little more than a cup of coffee. That's a pretty good deal, but I also get it that time is an extremely limited resource and if we can provide you with the core elements of a life-shifting book via this podcast, there's a real value there.This first ever "Book of the Year" episode starts with a book who's timing is invaluable as we sit here in a world more polarized than ever: Adam Grant's masterpiece: Think Again.

Dr. Woo-kyoung Ahn, a Psychology professor at Yale, is the author of the new book Thinking 101: How to Reason Better to Live Better. She joins us for an enlightening conversation about how we can be more keenly aware of our cognitive tendencies, sharpen our thinking and duck thinking errors that can have real-life implications. We discuss: How confirmation bias works - and how it gets in our way Negativity bias - and why loss aversion carries more weight than gains do Overconfidence and the fluency effect Estimating better and the planning fallacy How marketers use cognitive bias - and how to be a wiser consumer Applications of the research in daily life How cognitive psychology can help at the individual and societal levels Dr. Ahn joins us from New Haven. ________________________ Comments, Suggestions or Questions You'd Like Me to Address on the Podcast?

And I try not to negotiate with myself on this. And sometimes 50% was not enough. My favorite story was I was planning I was preparing for a lecture on the planning fallacy, and I thought It'll be done within four days. And I said, Okay, that means a week. No. It took two weeks, because there's so many studies that I read and then I said, No, this one doesn't work. No, this is not interesting. So it took two weeks. So, I think the best thing to do is just to assume the planning fallacy always happens a hundred percent - and then just double the estimate." On Negativity Bias "...some researchers say that we have actually evolved to be more sensitive to loss and negative information. And it's because throughout most of our human history, the resources have been really scarce. So in that case, any loss, even if it's a small one, can be a direct threat to our survival. So we have evolved to protect what we possess, what our family has.

Saya membahas buku Thinking Better karya Marcus du Sautoy. Buku ini membahas perspektif lain soal jalan pintas. Jika mendengar kata jalan pintas, kita mungkin saja memiliki pandangan yang negatif. Maklum saja, selama ini kita diajarkan kalau untuk mencapai sesuatu dalam hidup, maka kamu perlu melakukannya selangkah demi selangkah, melalui jalan panjang dan penuh rintangan. Namun ternyata, tidak selamanya harus seperti itu. Kita bisa menggunakan jalan pintas untuk mencapai hal besar dalam hidup. Penulis menggunakan matematika sebagai jalan pintas untuk menjawab pertanyaan dalam hidup. Ini adalah cara kita untuk berpikir dengan lebih baik.

When you think of shortcuts, what comes to mind? Cheating? Or the premise of working smarter, not harder? Tim and David stumbled on a fascinating book by Oxford Professor of Mathematics Marcus du Sautoy called "Thinking Better: The Art of the Shortcut" which provides insight into the practice of using and finding shortcuts. In this episode David and Tim reminisce with Marcus about how Mathematics became a daunting subject they disconnected from for various reasons. But Marcus proves that mathematics is a wonderful thinking language and provides the shortcuts to get excited about it. You can find more of Marcus's work in mathematics here, and follow his newest book on bookshelves and Audible.

As machine learning and AI mature and adapt to the humans that created them, it's important we think carefully about not only what is creativity, but what is uniquely human about creativity.Marcus du Sautoy is the Charles Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science at the Oxford University, a chair he holds jointly at the Department of Continuing Education and the Mathematical Institute, as well as a Professor of Mathematics and a Fellow of New College.His many books dive deep into the world of machines and creativity, and include “Thinking Better: the Art of the Shortcut,” and “The Creativity Code.”He sits down for this stimulating conversation with Greg covering generative adversarial networks, Ada Lovelace and machine generated music, crediting the code or the coder, and what the future holds for art & AI.Episode Quotes:Two kinds of algorithm we need at work:You need a sort of two algorithms at work. One is the creator coming up with babbling new ideas. And then the second is like, oh, the judgments. No, that's no good. That doesn't work because of this. And you know in my own research, I often pair up with another mathematician and we play these two roles, the creator and the discriminator.So, I think some of the most interesting algorithms that we're seeing that are beginning to look like they're making something genuinely new are capturing that element that we take advantage of as humans.Machines still need humansMachines might be able to do things at speed or at depth that a human could never achieve. But ultimately, we should credit the creativity with the human that told the machine what to do.The Emotional Resonance to MathematicsAda Lovelace went to see, you know, Charles Babbage making a machine do math, but, no, it wasn't doing math. It was doing arithmetic and that's the kind of bread and butter. But mathematics is something much more creative. And, we use this word creativity as a kind of protective shield about, against why a computer can't do what we're doing, because we're making lots of leaps into the unknown, lots of choices, things we choose proofs, which kind of move us emotionally because they got “Aha” moment in them.Show Links:Resources:The ContinuatorThe Turing TestForget Turing, the Lovelace Test Has a Better Shot at Spotting AIAda LovelaceAlphaGoGPT3 algorithmAnish KapoorLibrary of BabelDeep Dream GeneratorGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at University of OxfordProfessional Profile at the Royal SocietyMarcus du Sautoy WebsiteMarcus du Sautoy on TwitterMarcus du Sautoy on FacebookMarcus du Sautoy on YoutubeMarcus Sautoy on TEDTalkHis Work:The Creativity Code: Art and Innovation in the Age of AIFinding Moonshine BlogThinking Better: The Art of the Shortcut in Math and LifeI is a Strange LoopHow to Count to Infinity (Little Ways to Live a Big Life Book 1)The Great Unknown: Seven Journeys to the Frontiers of ScienceWhat We Cannot Know: From consciousness to the cosmos, the cutting edge of science explainedThe Music of the Primes: Searching to Solve the Greatest Mystery in Mathematics The Number Mysteries: A Mathematical Odyssey through Everyday Life (MacSci)Symmetry: A Mathematical Journey Finding Moonshine: A Mathematician's Journey Through Symmetry

It's been a minute since I last hit publish on a podcast episode, but I'm happy to be back!This recording is actually from a Twitter space that I hosted on mental models and frameworks in preparation for an Innospiration newsletter (subscribe here to receive future curations and access the archive!). I loved the discussion so much that I decided to share this wonderful content-packed audio here. This may be part of a new release model along with more traditionally produced episodes.I share quite a bit about the benefit and purpose of mental models and frameworks, why they are essential in understanding and shifting our perspective, and give a bunch of examples that inspire deeper analysis about the way that we think!My friend and talented coach Fabiola Segovia also shares a thorough walkthrough of a fascinating detailed coaching energetics framework that she uses in her practice that you can immediately apply after listening to this episode.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: A summary of every "Highlights from the Sequences" post, published by Akash on July 15, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. 1 I recently finished reading Highlights from the Sequences, 49 essays from The Sequences that were compiled by the LessWrong team. Since moving to Berkeley several months ago, I've heard many people talking about posts from The Sequences. A lot of my friends and colleagues commonly reference biases, have a respect for Bayes Rule, and say things like “absence of evidence is evidence of absence!” So, I was impressed that the Highlights were not merely a refresher of things I had already absorbed through the social waters. There was plenty of new material, and there were also plenty of moments when a concept became much crisper in my head. It's one thing to know that dissent is hard, and it's another thing to internalize that lonely dissent doesn't feel like going to school dressed in black— it feels like going to school wearing a clown suit. 2 As I read, I wrote a few sentences summarizing each post. I mostly did this to improve my own comprehension/memory. You should treat the summaries as "here's what Akash took away from this post" as opposed to "here's an actual summary of what Eliezer said." Note that the summaries are not meant to replace the posts. Read them here. 3 Here are my notes on each post, in order. I also plan to post a reflection on some of my favorite posts. Thinking Better on Purpose One difference between humans and mice is that humans are able to think about thinking. Mice brains and human brains both have flaws. But a human brain is a lens that can understand its own flaws. This is powerful and this is extremely rare in the animal kingdom. Epistemic rationality is about building beliefs that correspond to reality (accuracy). Instrumental rationality is about steering the future toward outcomes we desire (winning). Sometimes, people have debates about whether things are “rational.” These often seem like debates over the definitions of words. We should not debate over whether something is “rational”— we should debate over whether something leads us to more accurate beliefs or leads us to steer the world more successfully. If it helps, every time Eliezer says “rationality”, you should replace it with “foozal” and then strive for what is foozal. An 8-year-old will fail a calculus test because there are a lot of ways to get the wrong answer and very few ways to get the right answer. When humans pursue goals, there are often many ways of pursuing goals ineffectively and only a few ways of pursuing them effectively. We rarely do seemingly-obvious things, like: Ask what we are trying to achieve Track progress Reflect on which strategies have worked & or haven't worked for us in the past Seek out strategies that have worked or haven't worked for others Test several different hypotheses for how to achieve goals Ask for help Experiment with alternative ways of studying, writing, working, or socializing Luke Skywalker tried to lift a spaceship once. Then, he gave up. Instantly. He told Yoda it was impossible. And then he walked away. And the audience sat along and nodded, because this is typical for humans. “People wouldn't try for more than five minutes before giving up if the fate of humanity were at stake.” If a model can explain any possible outcome, it is not a useful model. Sometimes, we encounter a situation, and we're like “huh. something doesn't seem right here”. But then we push this away and explain the situation in terms of our existing models. Instead, we should pay attention to this feeling. We should resist the impulse to go through mental gymnastics to explain a surprising situation with our existing models. Either our model is wrong, or the story isn't true. Sometimes, we investigate our beliefs because we are “suppos...

IF YOU TEACH SOMEONE TO BE MORE EMOTIONALLY INTELLIGENT, WHAT HAPPENS TO THEM AND THEIR ENVIRONMENT?

In today's episode we're going to be talking about the importance of being different and how being different and NOT BETTER will help you grow your practice, your impact and your income too! As a world, we've become obsessed with better and many of us have wrongly bought into the idea that the path to helping us stand out from all the noise is by being better than our competitors. As you'll learn, the fastest growing companies of today are better than their competitors. They're DIFFERENT. In today's episode you discover exactly why being different is so powerful and I'll share my system for helping to identify how your practice is different, so you can start standing out from all the noise right now! Enjoy the show. Thanks for all you do. Keep saving lives. Angus See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hard work is essential to success…right? If we want teens to thrive they have to hustle, grind and work laboriously to achieve perfect SAT scores or a spot on the basketball team. We condemn teen laziness, hoping that kids will understand the value of blood sweat and tears. For goodness sake, how will they ever get anywhere in life if they're not spending hours with their chemistry textbooks or practicing their free throws all afternoon?But maybe it doesn't have to be that way. Perhaps there's some merit to taking the easy way out–so long as it's clever! If teens can find ways to get to the same result without all the effort, they might just stumble upon a great discovery. This week, we're talking all about shortcuts and laziness, and why these things may not be as bad as we assume! Sometimes, figuring out a way around hard work can lead to some seriously innovative thinking.Joining us this week is Marcus Du Sautoy, author of Thinking Better: The Art of the Shortcut in Math and Life. Marcus is a brilliant mathematician and the Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science at the University of Oxford. His books and regular media appearances have done wonders to spark public interest in science and mathematics!This week, Marcus and I are talking all about shortcuts–and how they can make our teens lives' easier. We're also discussing why laziness is underrated, and how collaboration might just save the future of the human race.

January 17, 2022 When words don't want to fly. That's what this is about. An exercise. To grow beyond being a bump on a log. We've made it too easy for us and those around us to be seen and not heard. It's ok to be quiet. Yet the storms brewing within our thick skin need to have a voice. How often do you face a need for an answer and all you're getting are shrugged shoulders. Because we've allowed people to be quiet. It gives off the scent of not having to participate with. Why don't words want to be put on a page or a computer screen? The choice to stay still has to be eliminated. What we aren't seeing or talking about are the moments of doubt lived out by those who constantly ask themselves, “Why didn't I participate? I truly had a voice and didn't use it!” The lesson I took from the Beatles Get Back documentary was how every player involved including Billy Preston kept their voices heard. Even while writing iconic music Lennon and McCartney would mumble until the melody had been perfected. Then they went back to craft the lyrics. What if they had stayed silent? Being quiet isn't laziness. It's a willingness. A choice that so often invites several moments of what if I had. You'll never know unless you try.

This week we speak with Dr. Ulrich Lehner a professor in the Theology Department at the University of Notre Dame where he specializes in the history of Christianity about his book, "Think Better: Unlocking the Power of Reason." We delve into how people can begin to think better when society has become ever more divided and has seemingly lost the ability to base decisions in reason instead of feelings. In our action item we have details on a great event that will help you put into practice reasoned arguments to counter common pro-choice arguments in a way that promotes dialogue in truth and love.

On this episode, Sam chats with Ulrich Lehner, William K. Wood Professor of Theology at the University of Notre-Dame, who believes that reason lies at the heart of the good life. Drawing on themes explored in his book, Think Better: Unlocking the Power of Reason (Baker Academic, 2021), Lehner outlines an approach to reasoning that is intimately shaped by a Christian worldview, yet simultaneously remains accessible to anyone seeking a richer, clearer, and more empathic experience of life.

On episode 95, Leon chats with philosopher Andy Norman about mental immunity and how to reason well, what ideologies are and what makes them toxic, the responsibility each of us have to become rational thinkers and why, ethically, we can't just believe what we want to, how repetition fuels delusional beliefs, how we can remain hopeful and optimistic without fooling ourselves, human nature and why it's less awful than we believe, effective teaching methods and how Leon's friendship with Dr. Tim Stroup helped him become more open minded, the ways in which we resist facing reality, why a belief's practical outcomes contribute to its validity as much as its truthfulness, and why reasoning together, as opposed to against one another, can help us create a better world.

BOOK   Silver Award Winner, Nonfiction Authors Association Book Awards Distinguished Favorite Award, Leadership Category, 2019 Independent Press Awards Stress and our overloaded brains are two of the underlying causes creating conflict, tension, and drama in the workplace. They also result in poor decision making and less-than-optimal thinking by leaders at all levels of the workforce. Daily juggling of data, reports, email, meetings, decisions, and way too much information has leaders operating in "mind full" modes. This is not good. A more effective method is to make decisions in a mindful mode, a skill that can be learned. As a leader, the decisions you make and execute shape the lives of team members, colleagues, direct reports, customers, suppliers, and the communities in which you operate and live. Unfortunately, the majority of leaders are unaware of how stress, multitasking, and overtaxed brains trigger poor decisions, thinking, and outcomes. This book will help readers become more cognizant of when stress is triggering them toward poor decision making. It will also help leaders become more aware of the many benefits that mindfulness practices will bring to their decision-making and thinking capabilities.
