In this week's episode, we dive into an inspiring and wide-ranging conversation with Steven Puri, exploring what it truly means to work in a state of flow; and how productivity, creativity, and fulfillment emerge when we align how we work with how we're wired. We explore the nature of flow states and why they are not reserved for elite performers, but accessible to anyone with the right tools and awareness. Drawing from Steven's unique journey through the Hollywood film industry and the world of tech startups, we discuss how pressure, deadlines, and high-stakes environments can either drain us or elevate us, depending on how we structure our focus and energy. We unpack the difference between leading and managing, looking at how leadership creates conditions for flow, autonomy, and meaning, while management often focuses on control and output. We also dive into practical tools for cultivating flow in everyday life, from structuring deep work to reducing cognitive overload and how these insights ultimately led Steven to create The Sukha Company, a platform designed to help people access clarity, calm, and sustained productivity. Along the way, we draw inspiration from the work of Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi on flow, Anna Lembke on balance and dopamine, Daniel Kahneman on attention and decision-making, and we explore chronotypes to understand how timing, energy, and biology play a critical role in how and when we do our best work. Join us for a thoughtful and energizing conversation about focus, leadership, creativity, and designing a life and workflow that supports your natural rhythm. Tune in to discover how flow isn't about doing more - it's about doing what matters, in the right state of mind. All the love, all the power, all of the time!

I det här avsnittet tar vi avstamp i tre forskningsartiklar om hur generativa AI-verktyg som ChatGPT påverkar vårt tänkande, till synes i en negativ riktning, genom cognitive offloading (kognitiv avlastning) eller till och med cognitive surrender. Att AI tar över kognitivt krävande arbete behöver inte betyda att vi blir dummare - tvärtom - men det beror lite på hur vi hanterar verktygen och vad vi gör med vår frigjorda kapacitet.LÄNKAR:Kosmyna, N., Hauptmann, E., Yuan, Y.

What is the most you'd pay for lunch? What about baby formula? What about an uber home when your battery is on 1%? Those numbers will be different depending on your mood, location, and personality. Dynamic Pricing is a way for companies to exploit us out of the most possible money, by creating a personalized "profile" they can use to manipulate you into more profits. This is a form of priming that we all need to pay attention to. Watch: RONAN FARROW ON DYNAMIC PRICING. “The world makes much less sense than you think.

How do you naturally prime yourself for your day? Brushing your teeth to feel refreshed, playing hype music to get in a better mood, opening windows to let in fresh air. These are all forms of priming that affect how our mind feels going into things. We associate familiarity with ease. What do we do when people use priming with negative intentions?"Start by cultivating environmental awareness. Look around your workspace, your living room, and your digital feeds. What are they priming you for? Does your phone's home screen, filled with news and social media apps, prime you for distraction and outrage? Does your desk, cluttered with unfinished tasks, prime you for anxiety? You have the power to curate your environment." - madeupmind.org “The world makes much less sense than you think.

In this week's episode, we dive into Jeff Booth's The Price of Tomorrow, exploring a bold and provocative view of the future of our economy, technology, and society, and why understanding deflation may be key to navigating what comes next.We uncover Booth's core idea that the natural state of a truly free economy is deflation, and that technological progress is inherently deflationary. As innovation accelerates, goods and services should become cheaper and more accessible — yet our current financial systems resist this reality. We explore what this tension means for individuals, businesses, and governments, and why so many people feel increasing pressure despite unprecedented technological advancement.We also discuss Booth's predictions about the future, examining the paradigm shift required to fully grasp his perspective. This includes rethinking long-held assumptions about growth, debt, inflation, and value, and understanding how exponential technologies are reshaping the rules of the game faster than our systems can adapt.Additionally, we explore strategic frameworks that help make sense of this transition, including the Prisoner's Dilemma, zero-sum and non-zero-sum games. We reflect on how cooperation, long-term thinking, and systems-level awareness may offer more sustainable paths forward than competition rooted in scarcity.Join us to discover how The Price of Tomorrow challenges conventional economic thinking and invites us to rethink progress, value, and opportunity in a rapidly changing world. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation that blends economics, technology, game theory, and practical strategies for approaching an uncertain but possibility-rich future.All the love, all the power, all of the time!If you'd like to support the podcast, follow this link: https://linktr.ee/w.salskiInstagram: / unusual.stories_podcast YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WS_PodcastPrimal.net: @wspodcastLink to the book on Amazon: https://amzn.eu/d/gUrs61tRelated Media: "Beginner's Mindset" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/4tLcQV0gx2MuwWKczttxuA?si=520988ae201d43c3"Thinking Fast and Slow" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/6rZpUK2wEL6nOWHBr1fffo?si=9e73786ac0654082"Let's Talk About Money" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/75naEHqjZy1fcObsjjhFec?si=f1718052b4e240a7"Today vs. Tomorrow" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/3dOIUGFYZaAVZIafKH7nRl?si=1daec288f5364bae"Why You Shouldn't Buy Bitcoin?" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/5puvUXQwUH5GRNgQjVgZL9?si=e4fdf02e266f4e3f"The Bitcoin Standard" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/4AtMl4N6FXmfwo8CVueBvk?si=ce961af3d7df427f"The Creature from Jekyll Island" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/1m01JKWp4m8TXxCp96Pf1f?si=9c14e5dfcb0a4a4a
Psychologist Gerd Gigerenzer explains the power of intuition, how intuition became gendered, what he thinks Kahneman and Tversky's research agenda got wrong, and why it's a mistake to place intuition and conscious thinking on opposing ends of the cognition spectrum. Topics he discusses in this wide-ranging conversation with EconTalk's Russ Roberts include what Gigerenzer calls the "bias bias"--the overemphasis on claims of irrationality, why it's better to replace "nudging" with "boosting," and the limitations of AI in its current form as a replacement for human intelligence and intuition.

Understanding and Optimizing the Human BrainIn this solo episode of 'SuperPsyched,' Dr. Adam Dorsay delves into the complexities and shortcomings of the human brain. Highlighting that our brains have remained largely unchanged for the past 35,000 years despite dramatic changes in our environment, Dr. Dorsay explains how our brains are primarily wired for survival and efficiency, often leading to suboptimal decisions. He discusses the distinction between fast and slow thinking as described by Nobel laureate Dr. Daniel Kahneman and introduces methods for cognitive refutation to challenge erroneous beliefs. Using the example of a NBA player's binary thinking, he walks through a process to reconsider and redefine the meaning of success and failure, emphasizing the power of reframing negative thoughts to improve life quality.00:00 Welcome to SuperPsyched00:28 Understanding the Human Brain01:01 The Brain's Evolutionary Bugs03:24 Thinking Fast and Slow06:47 Cognitive Biases and Refutation11:44 Creating Meaning from Loss14:33 Conclusion and Final Thoughts
Når jeg siger ”design” tænker du formentlig på møbler, tøj eller indretning. Men man kan også designe processer, services, systemer og forretningsmodeller, og derfor spiller design en betydelig rolle, når det handler om cirkulær økonomi og bæredygtighed. Det ved Julie Hjort, som er vicedirektør i Dansk Design Center (DDC), en masse om, og derfor har jeg inviteret Julie ind i den varme stol i Bæredygtig Business. Dansk Design Center er Danmarks nationale center for design, og her arbejder de med at fremme brugen af design, især hos SMV'erne, så disse kan bruge design til at drive den bæredygtige omstilling og skabe konkurrencekraft. En undersøgelse fra DDC viser nemlig, at 9 ud af 10 danske virksomheder, der bruger design, også kan se, hvordan det hjælper dem til at skabe konkurrencekraft. Du kan også høre om: • Hvorfor det er en stor fordel at tænke over designet fra starten • At vi skal have et kæmpe ”skift”, så virksomheder og organisationer designer efter forlænget levetid og ikke det modsatte (at produkterne går i stykker efter en vis tid) • Emotionel holdbarhed og cirkulær adfærd • Om betydningen af, at give brugeren en opfattelse af, at vedkommende har truffet den rigtige beslutning (for planeten) ved et produktvalg. • At vi skal væk fra narrativet om alt det vi ikke må, på grund af klimaet, til hvordan det gode, fede liv er, samtidig med at vi passer på klimaet. • Og at vi godt kan omprogrammere den fortælling Nævnt i episoden: • Dansk Design Center: https://ddc.dk/ • Undersøgelsen ”Design Delivers” https://www.danskindustri.dk/globalassets/politik-og-analyser/designpolitik/2022-design-delivers-green.pdf?v=250730 • Thinking Fast and Slow (Kahneman) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thinking,_Fast_and_Slow • Stykka: https://www.stykka.com/ • Bogen ”Navigating Societal Change through Design”, som Julie Hjort har skrevet sammen med Sara Gry Striegler: https://www.ebooks.com/en-us/book/345988763/navigating-societal-change-through-design/sara-gry-striegler/?srsltid=AfmBOopPCg2qCPxIiJBG43yDS-58E36KB_ohVi--1f2ULVpZOuYrAuW0 Tips, idéer eller ønsker?

Madhavan Ramanujam is the world's foremost expert on pricing and monetization strategy. As managing partner at Simon-Kucher, he helped over 250 companies, including 30 unicorns, architect their pricing strategies. He's the author of the definitive book on pricing, Monetizing Innovation. Now he's back with a sequel, Scaling Innovation, which reveals how to build enduring businesses by dominating both market share and wallet share. He recently left Simon-Kucher to launch his own fund, 49 Palms, focused on helping early-stage AI companies.In this conversation, we discuss:1. The 2x2 framework that identifies your optimal pricing model2. Why AI companies can capture 25% to 50% of value created, vs. 10% to 20% for traditional SaaS products3. Why popular AI coding tools may have already doomed themselves with underpricing4. The “give-and-get” framework top negotiators use to extract maximum value from every deal5. The negotiation strategy that helped one founder 4x their deal size overnight6. How to frame POCs as “business case creation” instead of technical demos (and why this changes everything)7. Why AI companies must get monetization right from day one—not “figure it out later”8. How companies like Intercom's Fin and Sierra pioneered outcome-based pricing (charging $0.99 per AI resolution)9.

I interviewed 60 Brits to debunk one of psychology's greatest myths. Priming is one of the best-known biases in behavioural science. Kahneman mentions it 35 times in his best-selling book Thinking Fast and Slow. And yet, I'm not convinced it really works. In five separate experiments, I tested it. Does priming work, or is it a myth?

BIO: Jeff Sarti, CEO of Morton Wealth, leads a firm managing over $3 billion in assets. With a mission to empower better investors, Jeff helps clients achieve their financial goals while supporting employees in their career growth.STORY: Jeff bought a few dot-com companies, thinking it was smart and safe because he bought the big brands. All of the companies dropped 90%+.LEARNING: Don't let greed, FOMO, and a lack of imagination drive you to a bad investment. “Don't take shortcuts. If you do, at least know that you're gambling and speculating. That's different from investing.”Jeff Sarti Guest profileJeff Sarti, CEO of Morton Wealth, leads a firm managing over $3 billion in assets. With a mission to empower better investors, Jeff helps clients achieve their financial goals while supporting employees in their career growth. A CFA charterholder, Jeff shares his insights through his Perspective newsletter. His expertise emphasizes challenging the status quo and fostering long-term, resilient investment strategies.Worst investment everIn the late 90s, during the dot-com boom, Jeff had just started making a bit of money. He bought a few dot-com companies, thinking it was smart and safe because he bought the big brands. All of the companies dropped 90%+ after a while.Lessons learnedDon't let greed, FOMO, and a lack of imagination drive you to a bad investment.Always do your research.Andrew's takeawaysWhen prices get untethered from earnings growth, our expectation of the future is what matters.Actionable adviceThe only way you can learn is by doing and making mistakes. But before you start doing, do the research, understand the underlying risk factors of your investments, and don't take shortcuts.If you do, at least know you're speculating and not investing. Keep that speculative piece of your portfolio small. It's always a good idea to balance speculative investments with more traditional, long-term investment strategies for a more secure financial future.Jeff's recommendationsJeff recommends checking out resources on his website, such as his investment guides and market analysis, and signing up for his quarterly newsletter if you want financial education.He also recommends reading Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman and books by Morgan Housel to understand how emotions drive investment decisions.No.1 goal for the next 12 monthsJeff's number one goal for the next 12 months is to continue traveling the country with his investment team, uncovering some new niche opportunities.Parting words “I really enjoyed the conversation.

A Simple Technique to Make Meetings More Enjoyable - Mike CohnEvery time I went to the dentist as a little kid, my dentist gave me a small toy after my treatment.And back then my parents' house was near Disneyland. From our backyard we'd see the nightly fireworks. Disneyland always saved the most spectacular display for the finale.My dentist and Disneyland were making use of what later became known as the peak-end rule. This rule says that we judge and recall experiences based on how we felt at the peak and at the end.My dentist was giving me a more favorable impression by giving me the toy at the end. If he'd given me a toy at the start, it would not have had the same impact.Disney was going for the double-whammy of placing the peak experience at the end.Studies conducted by Daniel Kahneman (author of Thinking Fast and Slow) and others have shown that we consider unpleasant experiences better if they end on an up note. The end doesn't have to be great; it just has to be better than what preceded it.Meetings are an unpleasant experience for many of us. But we can improve how team members feel about meetings by changing how we end them.I plan to try this next week. Our weekly meeting begins with anyone sharing good news, whether professional or personal. This week a coworker is celebrating a professional achievement; next week is another's last before taking maternity leave.This simple sharing of good news is the highlight of the meeting for me. All the discussion about the work we each plan to undertake for the week is vital, but I enjoy hearing good news from coworkers.Back in the day, we put this at the start of each week's agenda because we reasoned it would be nice to start on a positive note. Do you predict we'll be better served by sharing good news at the end?Improving the end of a meeting won't change the outcome of the meeting or the discussions within the meeting. It should, however, improve how people feel about the meeting.Making meetings more enjoyable (or at least less unpleasant) will help a team succeed with agileHow to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

If you're approached by a growling dog, the main tip is to remain calm. Every dog can feel your fear and if you start running, it'd get even angrier. There're some signs the dog is gradually getting angry: for example, if it starts moving slowly with its ears folded back and its tail low. Then it might bare its teeth - these are all signs the animal is aggressive and might attack. We've all been in a situation, when every minute counts. Be it an aggressive dog approaching you out of nowhere, or a bunch of angry bees flying right at you. How to behave, what to do? Should you get away ASAP and seek shelter? There're just a few questions running in your head in case of emergency situation. So it's better to be informed before it actually happens.

Send us a textIn this episode, April attempts to unpack the complicated topic of propaganda, a form of persuasion used by corporations, advertisers, pundits, influencers, and political personalities. These days, it's important for critical thinkers to understand that there should be a delineation between propaganda and the kind of rhetoric used in democratic governance, to recognize propaganda and to avoid being influenced by it.

Why and how do we store certain memories and not others? What lifestyle elements influence memory for better or worse? Can traumatic memories be reframed and lead to reduction in symptoms?In this episode we get into the most recent research into memory. So, how we store memory; the different types; the way we actively construct it rather than simply receiving it; it's importance to our sense of self and framing of the world; to our attention and motivation; to our openness and updating our beliefs; and to Deja Vu. We talk about the influence of screen time and multi-tasking on memory; some unexpected life style factors that influence the quality of memory function and how they can feed into memory disorders; and we discuss traumatic memories and how we can reframe them, and the psychedelic research on that too.Fortunately, our guest is one of the world's most fun and knowledgeable authorities on memory, psychologist, neuroscientist, and head of the dynamic memory lab at The University of California Davis, Dr. Charan Ranganath. He's the author of over 120 scientific papers on memory and has recently released a fascinating book for the general public on all this, “Why We Remember”. Charan is also a rock guitarist with several bands so a man of many talents.

Episode 3438 Ryan Frederick highlights how our environment can serve as a powerful life hack, influencing longevity, health, and financial well-being.

Small tweaks to our surroundings can significantly enhance our quality of life. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.here.life/blog/place-as-a-life-hack Quotes to ponder: "Place has both direct and indirect impacts on a person's life.
