Renowned brain health expert Dr. Daniel G. Amen reveals transformative insights into optimizing brain function, no matter its current state. Our conversation takes you through Dr. Amen's groundbreaking findings, highlighting the often-overlooked consequences of mild traumatic brain injuries and the limitations of traditional psychiatry in neglecting the brain's physical condition. With a deep dive into the distinctions between physical and emotional trauma, Dr. Amen provides a crucial understanding of how these factors affect brain activity, offering a nuanced perspective for addressing mental health challenges effectively. Explore the intricate relationship between lifestyle choices and brain health with us. Drawing from my upcoming book, "The End of Mental Illness," Dr. Amen and I discuss how common dependencies on caffeine, alcohol, and sugar can severely impact mental well-being. We delve into the addictive nature of sugar and its potential role in depression and dementia, all while emphasizing the need for fostering healthier relationships with food and substances. Learn about the fascinating insights gained from brain scans and discover a free online test that can help you better understand your brain type, ultimately enabling a more personalized approach to mental health. We also address the potential health risks of electromagnetic frequencies from devices like cell phones and emerging technologies like 5G. Dr. Amen discusses the alarming rise in deaths related to drugs, alcohol, and suicide, suggesting a paradigm shift in viewing these issues as brain illnesses. The conversation explores the impact of physical health on brain function, and we touch on the transformative power of music in enhancing creativity, mood stabilization, and relaxation. Listen in as we discuss the importance of aligning lifestyle choices with natural rhythms and explore alternative mental health treatments like diet, exercise, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). ------------------ Dr. Daniel G. Amen believes that brain health is central to all health and success. When your brain works right, he says, you work right; and when your brain is troubled you are much more likely to have trouble in your life. His work is dedicated to helping people have better brains and better lives. The Washington Post called Dr. Amen the most popular psychiatrist in America and Sharecare named him the web's #1 most influential expert and advocate on mental health. Dr. Amen is a physician, double board certified psychiatrist, television producer and ten-time New York Times bestselling author. He is the Founder and Medical Director of Amen Clinics across the US. Amen Clinics have the world's largest database of functional brain scans relating to behavior, totaling more than 125,000 scans on patients from 111 countries. Dr. Amen is a Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association, the highest award given to members, and is the lead researcher on the world's largest brain imaging and rehabilitation study on professional football players. His research has not only demonstrated high levels of brain damage in players, he also showed the possibility of significant recovery for many with the principles that underlie his work. Together with Pastor Rick Warren and Dr. Mark Hyman, Dr. Amen is also one of the chief architects on Saddleback Church's “Daniel Plan,” a program to get the world healthy through religious organizations. Dr. Amen has written, produced and hosted 11 popular shows about the brain for public television, which have been aired more than 100,000 times across North America. Dr. Amen is the author or co-author of 70 professional articles, seven book chapters, and over 30 books, including the #1 New York Times bestseller The Daniel Plan and Change Your Brain, Change Your Life, Magnificent Mind At Any Age, Change Your Brain, Change Your Body, Use Your Brain to Change Your Age, Unleash the Power of the Female Brain and Healing ADD.  --------- EPISODE CHAPTERS --------- (0:00:01) - Mastering the Brain With Dr. Amon (0:05:19) - Balancing Brain Health and Behavior (0:20:17) - Revolution in Brain Health (0:26:56) - Optimizing Brain Function Through Lifestyle --------- EPISODE CHAPTERS WITH SHORT KEY POINTS --------- (0:00:01) - Mastering the Brain With Dr. Amon Dr. Daniel G.

Amen regarding brain health and optimization. We explore Dr. Amen's groundbreaking discoveries, including the ability to improve brain function regardless of its current state, the profound impact of mild traumatic brain injuries that often go unnoticed, and the shortcomings of traditional psychiatry that overlooks the brain's physical state. Dr. Amen distinguishes between physical and emotional trauma, highlighting how each affects brain activity differently. He shares how physical trauma can lead to decreased brain activity, while emotional trauma can cause heightened activity in the limbic system, which is crucial for understanding how to appropriately treat various mental health challenges. Understanding these differences is essential to either calming or repairing the brain effectively. (0:05:19) - Balancing Brain Health and Behavior (15 Minutes) This chapter focuses on the relationship between daily habits and mental health, specifically discussing the impacts of caffeine, alcohol, and sugar on the brain. I share insights from my upcoming book, "The End of Mental Illness," where I discuss how society's dependency on coffee to wake up and alcohol to sleep can contribute to mental health issues. By gradually reducing caffeine and alcohol intake, individuals can improve their energy levels and sleep quality without withdrawal symptoms. The conversation highlights the addictive and inflammatory nature of sugar, its role in depression and dementia, and its negative effects on brain healing and function. The importance of maintaining healthy relationships with food and substances is emphasized, suggesting that food should "love you back." Finally, we touch on the insights gained from brain scans regarding personality and behavior, introducing a free online test to help people understand their brain types. (0:20:17) - Revolution in Brain Health (7 Minutes) This chapter addresses concerns about the pervasive use of cell phones and the potential health risks associated with electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) and radiation exposure from devices like microwaves and the emerging 5G technology. The discussion touches on the alarming rise in deaths from drugs, alcohol, and suicide, linking them to broader mental health issues and suggesting a shift from viewing these as mental illnesses to brain illnesses. Highlighting Dr. Amen's work, we explore the impact of weight and physical health on brain function, emphasizing the importance of preventing or treating risk factors like low blood flow and diabesity, as outlined in the "Bright Minds" mnemonic. We also discuss the influence of brainwave frequencies and cognition enhancers, sharing insights on brain-enhancing music's potential to improve mental health and function, reflecting on the transformative power of music in promoting creativity, mood stabilization, and relaxation. (0:26:56) - Optimizing Brain Function Through Lifestyle (9 Minutes) This chapter focuses on the impact of different music genres on brain function and the individual variability in optimal brain rhythms, discussing a personal study comparing rock, country, classical, and heavy metal music on memory. I also explore the genetic and developmental factors influencing whether someone is a morning or night person and emphasize the importance of aligning one's lifestyle with their natural rhythms. We address the growing interest in using substances like MDMA, ketamine, and DMT for mental health treatment, while highlighting concerns over their use and advocating for alternatives such as diet, exercise, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Finally, I share insights on making small, informed choices to improve brain health, encouraging listeners to consider whether their daily actions are beneficial for their brains.

“If you really want to heal and succeed in your life you have to Let Yourself Off the Hook!  Stop trying to solve your problems, achieve your goals and manage your life through force and struggle. This only keeps you stuck.  Instead, realise that your problems aren't your fault. They're simply the result of using your brain the wrong way.” This is the message of Liam Naden, a transformative teacher, speaker, and author who helps successful people overcome their negative limitations and find fast and practical solutions to their problems. He guides them in resetting their brain and thinking creatively instead of getting stuck in their fear-based fight-or-flight mode. Using a unique science-based method to reset and realign the brain, Liam shows you how to unlock your natural creativity and problem-solving ability,  enabling you to discover and live a truly rewarding and fulfilling life. Liam's own journey has taken him from the successes of being a serial entrepreneur as owner of more than 18 businesses and multi-millionaire - to losing everything and becoming homeless in his mid 40s. It was only as he rebuilt his life and wealth in a much more satisfying way that he realised the missing link to true success: the correct functioning of the human brain. He is now the host of the Let Yourself Off the Hook podcast, a best-selling author and creator of Brain Rebalancing - a process which gets the four parts of the brain working they way they should - and bringing you the success you should have.  Through his coaching programs and guest appearances he now teaches individuals from around the world  to understand that there's a more natural way to solve problems in all areas of life. It aligns with the brain's ability to find creative solutions to challenges rather than attempting to fight against them. When you adopt this mindset, you achieve true and lasting success much more quickly and without the limitations of struggle and stress.

Our podcast plays a massive role in that number, with well over 25,000 podcast downloads.   Today we bring on friend of the podcast, co-author with Albrecht, and Associate professor at Miami University in the neuroscience and human behavior department, Dr. Elliott Jardin. Dr. Elliott Jardin, an Assistant Professor in Miami University's Social and Behavioral Science department, researches individual differences in cognition. His specific focus is on learning, neuroscience, and cognitive aging. He is an award-winning teacher who credits his research on learning to his success in the classroom. One of his main initiatives is to make science more accessible to people outside of academia. Company Website: https://miamioh.edu/regionals/profiles/elliott-jardin.html Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elliott-jardin-ph-d-66734277/ Brain Health Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/brain-health-with-dr-jardin/id1536539944 Podcast Appearance with Albrecht:  https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/what-struggling-teams-are-missing/id1688109033?i=1000646786092. Dr. Jardin's mission aligns with our mission, and that is why we brought him on to discuss the following:  Neural Science of learning and development Post learner experience – How can I best exploit the resources given to me in a training.  How should credit unions prepare employees for learning and development engagements? How can we develop our communication skills to articulate ideas and communicate effectively with diverse stakeholders within and outside the credit union?   Motivation, Emotion, and Learning: A Conversation With Elliott Scott Albrecht and Dr. Elliott discussed the role of motivation and emotions in learning. Elliott highlighted the importance of tailoring learning activities to align with motivation and the role of dopamine in motivation and enjoyment. He emphasized the significance of emotional content in memories and the role of challenge level in learning and development. Elliott suggested the existence of a 'Goldilocks Zone' where the challenge level is adequate and depends on individual factors. They also touched on the role of phased learning spaced over time, with repetition key to long-term memory retention.     Neuroplasticity, Emotion, and Attention Networks Elliott explained the concept of neuroplasticity and its role in memory retention, stating that repeated use of resources helps strengthen the connections between neurons. The group discussed its application to learning and development, with Scott Anderle inquiring how repetition could influence long-term retention. Elliott elaborated on how emotional connections, such as those tied to music, can regulate emotions and affect memory retention. The group also discussed the function of the dorsal and ventral attention networks in the brain, with Elliott explaining the focus of each and Scott Anderle proposing that individuals can train themselves to improve their ventral attention network. Elliott suggested that mindfulness meditation could help strengthen the dorsal attention network.

The Tuskegee Airmen were an experiment by the US Army Air Corps to determine whether Black pilots could handle military flying. It turns out they could! But the Tuskegee Airmen fought a second battle – one against racial discrimination.With an impressive combat record and war accomplishments, the success of the Tuskegee Airmen helped influence then-President Harry Truman's decision to desegregate the armed forces in 1948.Our Guests today are Bill Shepard and Col. James Harvey. Bill is the former Vice President of Education for the Commemorative Air Force (CAF), and former CAF Red Tail Squadron Leader. On today's show, he explores with us the path that led him to proudly fly the P-51C Mustang for the CAF Red Tail Squadron. We will also hear from Col. James Harvey who was a Tuskegee Airman, and his personal journey as one of the first Black Aviators in the US military.From Bill's journey with aviation, to the history of the Tuskegee Airmen, there's a LOT to explore in this one!Key Takeaways: Bill earned his US private pilot's license at age 16 while still in high school The 6 Tuskegee principles are: Aim High, Believe in Yourself, Use Your Brain, Be Ready to Go, Never Quit and Expect to Win The Tuskegee Airmen helped influence President Harry Truman to sign Executive Order 9981 on July 26, 1948, mandating the desegregation of the U.S. military. Lt. Col. James H. Harvey III was a pilot with the 332nd Fighter Group, known as the Tuskegee Airmen. He later piloted on the team that won the military's first ‘Top Gun' contest in 1949. The Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) was a U.S. Army Air Forces program that tasked some 1,100 civilian women with noncombat military flight duties during World War II. Bill's advice: Dream big, work hard, and never give up!

In this episode, we learn from Liam who has spent many years learning and teaching about how to use our brains more effectively. We have a thinking brain, and we have a feeling brain, and then we have a survival brain and the creative brain where all your inspiration and creativity from.Our thinking brain is the place that collects and analyzes all the inputs but doesn't have good connection with the true inner power. Having gone from multi-millionaire status to broke and back again, he has learned about these parts of our brain and now helps us learn to use them well and to our benefit. Choosing to learn to use our brains correctly is the way to be the best we can be and to be happy.Discover more about Liam's work by checking out his website: https://liamnaden.com/You can follow him on social media:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/liamnaden/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/liamnadenfanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/liamnaden/Liam's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/LiamNaden______You can find out more about Kellan and how he can help you achieve your ultimate life by checking out his website: https://www.kellanfluckiger.com/YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/UltimateLifeFormulaSubscribe to the podcast at:https://your-ultimate-life.captivate.fm/listenJoin One of Kellan's Facebook Groups:Your Ultimate Life Transformation Experience:https://web.facebook.com/groups/ultimatelifetransformationexperienceYour Ultimate Life Podcast Support Group: https://bit.ly/3Eayg4J

“Not only is the brain the most powerful machine that exists, but it will literally give you everything you want if you know how to use it.” -Liam Naden The human brain is much more than just a collection of neurons firing away at each other— it is also the one responsible for what we do and how we do it. The way we think and act is largely determined by our brains' ability to process information in a way that allows us to identify patterns, make predictions based on those patterns, and then act accordingly. The fact that this happens is mind-blowing—but the fact that we can control our own minds is even more incredible!  In this episode, Ted sits with speaker, writer, teacher, and researcher Liam Naden. Liam has been researching how to improve quality of life—our decision-making, problem-solving,and generally how we live life. He discovered that the key to unlocking our full potential is in the proper understanding of how the brain works and how to use it the right way.  Listen in as Ted and Liam discuss how powerful the brain really is and how we can harness this power to manifest what we want in life. They also talk about the right and wrong ways of using the brain, the four parts of the brain and how each one functions, the truth about goal-setting, and how to move past the fear and towards thriving mode.    Connect The Modern Man: Website Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube   Highlights:  01:28 It's All in the Brain 04:12  The Wrong and Right Way to Use Your Brain 08:29 The 4 Parts of the Brain and Their Function  17:21 Fear Does Not Motivate 22:54 The Truth About Goal-Setting 28:44 Problems Cause Harm 32:05 The Way to Switch Your Brain Quickly

What is up? Okay, this guest, cool, a app. I'm so stoked. I could have talked to him for another hour. I'm gonna have to have him back on. So send me your questions, because we should all have a brain doctor in our pocket who is so honest and also has been on the other side of health. And I am so so thrilled. You know, Dr. Philippe Douyon is our guest today. And he was referred to me from a friend. And I was like, "Oh, yeah, I definitely, I want to know the neurology to being it till you see it." And y'all it is we talk a lot about the things you didn't, watch out what you're putting into your brain, we also talked about the power of your brain. And well, he is just a frickin wealth of knowledge as one who is a brain doctor should be. And there's a freakin awesome gift for you at the end. So I'm just gonna be honest, you're gonna want to take him up on it, I hope that you do. But here's the good news, the good news is, you have the power to change your thoughts. And so you get to hear how that is possible in this interview, and, you know, I hope that you are allowing yourself to be as curious as as you can. Because I think too often we think that things are set in stone, or that if it went one way, one time, it's always gonna go that way, all the time. And that's just not the case. Right? You'll see actually, if you're watching this on YouTube, you know, zoom works in color all the time. And then today, today, his Zoom is in black and white. And it wasn't the filters. And it wasn't the background, it was just technology, we recorded this in retrograde. So you know, that was on us. But the truth is that not everything has to go, not everything will go exactly the way you expect and not and that means on the on the sides of that of those expectations being not good for you. Meaning, you can always you can think, well, every time I do that x is going to happen. But what if you choose to see it differently? And how can you use your brain to actually see more possibilities? How can you use your brain to see what it is that you want to see in the world? You know, this is just frickin the coolest thing. I'm I'm gonna stop talking because I really just want you to hear Dr. Philippe Douyon talk to you. But y'all, he has a podcast, you're all gonna want to listen to that if you get really intrigued about the brain, and he has a book and he has a course. And he has a lot of things to help you take control of your brain and be it till you see it. So here he is.Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast, where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guests will bring Bold, Executable, Intrinsic and Targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Welcome back Be It Till You See It listeners, I have a really cool guest. I'm so excited for Dr. Philippe Douyon to tell you his story. And also we're going to talk about your brain, we're talking about neuroplasticity, we're gonna get a little nerdy on this, and I'm really excited. So I hope you want to nerd out with me. Dr. Philippe, you will you please share with our listeners who you are, where you're rockin from, how are we getting to have you on this show today? What do you got?Dr. Philippe Douyon 3:47  Well, first of all, thank you for having me here. Like I am super excited to be here today. Because not only my big fan of yours, but also today is the one year anniversary of my kidney transplant. So (Lesley: Oh, my God.) and I get to celebrate with you. So I'm super stoked. (Lesley: Oh, my God.) This is awesome. (Lesley: This is so cool.) This is like, it's like my birthday. It's actually like my third birthday. (Dr. Philippe laughs)Lesley Logan 4:09  Yeah. This is your third birthday. Oh, my God. (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) That is, (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) first of all, thanks for sharing that with, sharing this day with us. You could be doing so many things. (Lesley and Dr. Philippe laughs) This is really, really cool. So we'll tell ... like your transplant. I mean, you'll tell us that I definitely want us to find out why we're celebrating this anniversary.Dr. Philippe Douyon 4:29  Yeah, so, you know, this sort of season is kind of like graduation season, right? So I often end up reflecting on my last big graduation, which was medical school. And that was in May of 2007. You know, so I'm kind of dating myself, right now.Lesley Logan 4:45  I know but you're not because like you go to school forever to be a doctor.Dr. Philippe Douyon 4:48  Right. You do go to school forever to be a doctor. I'm not sure I would do it ever again. (Lesley and Dr. Philippe laughs) But yeah, so when I reflect on that right, I start to think about what I was feeling around that time and most people that I was graduating with, I mean, they were super excited. They were done with school, finally, they were going into their internships, so were going to different parts of the country, they were getting ready. They were now doctors, so they were getting ready to treat people. And probably most importantly, they were going to start making a little bit of money. Right?Lesley Logan 5:18  Right. Because because medical school costs a couple of dimes.Dr. Philippe Douyon 5:21  Yeah, cost a couple 100,000 times. And, but when I reflect on on that time period, I was terrified, not because I was going to be a doctor. But I was terrified because eight days after graduating from medical school, I was walking into the operating room at New York-Presbyterian Columbia, in order to have a kidney transplant. And my my dad was my donor. So I was lucky and I was blessed. Right. But there was nothing in my medical school training, in my life up until that point to prepare me for that experience. But there were, there were a lot of lessons that I learned from that time period. And what I went through, that really helped me just to become a much better doctor, really helped me to appreciate life more, really helped me to accomplish my goals and dreams, and also really helped me last year when I ended up hospitalized with COVID, ended up on dialysis and had to go through this process all over again.Lesley Logan 6:23  Oh, my goodness, I think that's people's like worst nightmares having to relive the thing that they thought they got over, you know, like, like, you're like, "Oh, I did the transplant thing." And you learned so much. And then you had to do it again. That had to be really hard. Also, thank you for sharing that I I kind of forget that I graduated college at some point. And I you're right, there are so many people are so excited. And then there's also some people who have reasons to be terrified, worried or nervous. And so that is scary for you to go through that. Because unfortunately, they don't teach you that in medical school. Like wouldn't it be so nice if they're like, this is how it is to be a patient? (Dr. Philippe: Right) I think I feel like that's a topic for another day, how that could change our medical industry here. But can you so you have been a doctor for a long time. And you've had to be a patient a couple of times? (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) Like how does that, how has that affected your practice and how you treat patients?Dr. Philippe Douyon 7:20  Yeah, I'm so I've been a patient my entire adult life because I was diagnosed with kidney failure when I was 18 years old. So I went to college and kidney failure, I'm going through medical school and kidney failure. And so for me, it allows me to really relate to my patients, right, because I know what it's like to look in the mirror, and not recognize who you are anymore. I know what it's like to take a whole bunch of pills and have a whole bunch of side effects, right? I know what it is like to face your mortality and be uncertain about the future. And so when I am having conversations with patients, it's not coming from this doctor who's so far removed from what they're going through, but it's coming from somebody who is just like them. (Lesley: Yeah) Right. And so we can have those really deep sort of conversations that allow us to connect.Lesley Logan 8:08  Wow, um, so many things like to be an 18 year old and be told something that feels limiting in your life. And uncertain, you know, I think, um, I'm thinking about some of our, some of our specific lessons. So I know what they're going through. And and it is not easy to show up every day, when you have this other thing that happens to be like your mortality in in on the back of your mind. And I would just wonder like, how did you do that? How did you go to college with, you know, knowing you needed a transplant? And how did you choose to go to medical school knowing like, how, what is the brain, what did you tell yourself every day to make that happen? Because so many people would just sit around and just wait for the transplant.Dr. Philippe Douyon 8:49  Yeah, you know, I see patients all the time who really just strongly identify with whatever the diagnosis is that they have. So give you an example. Right? So by training, I'm an epilepsy specialist. So I treat people with seizure disorders. And there was this patient that I had gotten him seizure free for now more than a year. And he was coming in for his six month follow up, you know, and he was like, "Yeah, I haven't had a seizure since our last visit." I'm like, "Great. So what do you been doing?" And he's like, "Nothing, I have epilepsy." And I'm like, "You're not, you're not working. You're not doing anything else?" And he's like, "No, no, I'm not." And I was like, "Are you just waiting for the next seizure to happen?" Right, because people so strongly identify with their diagnosis that they let them limit who they are. And for me, even when I was 18, there was always a bigger picture. It was like, I gotta get to college. Right? It almost felt like an annoyance to all the doctor visits and the pills that I had to take. It was like I have to get through college. And then it was like, "I want to go to medical school. I gotta get through medical school." It was not easy. There were times when I was sick. I think the second year of medical school I didn't go to any class I just studied from home (Lesley: woah) with the exception of like going to labs and stuff. But there was always a much bigger picture. And even when I think back to last year, right, but the bigger picture was, well, I've got to be impactful. I have a whole bunch of lives that I want to have a really positive impact on. I've got my two sons that I need to be there for. I need to live my life based on the purpose that I know that I have for myself. Right. So there was always a bigger picture and I never strongly identified with the diagnosis was, it was never the book on fleet Douyon, it was just a chapter in fleet Douyon's book.Lesley Logan 10:34  Oh, I hope everyone has heard that because that is so good. That is we you're right, people, people take a diagnosis or they take maybe it's not even a medical diagnosis. Maybe it's like, a divorce or a lost job or, you know, I my listeners know that like there's a time I was without a, without a house and they take those moments and they make that the book. And your it is just it's a chapter or a story within a chapter. It doesn't have to be the whole thing that is so good. (Dr. Philippe: Right. Yeah.) So how, so what did you have to tell yourself? Was it just did you have the vision on the board? Did you have it in your mind? Were you journaling? Like, what was it that kept it in your mind's eye? Because I can imagine the pain and (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) the like, I would say probably weakness and struggles like to get up every day. Like, how did you keep that in the forefront of what you were doing?Dr. Philippe Douyon 11:23  Sure. So there's a different experience I had when I was like 18, 19, and in my 20s, versus now as or last year as somebody who was 42, and a lot more mature and reflective. Right. So certainly when I was younger, I had to get through the anger, the resentment, the wise me, the victimization, right? I needed to be able to push through that. And that took up a lot of space and energy in my life. But last year, I didn't go through that at all. Right. And so it was having a vision for what I wanted my future to look like that kept me going last year. Right? The reality is that vision, our vision, our sense of vision, there is one lobe in the brain completely responsible for vision, (Lesley: Stop) it is the only sense that has one lobe dedicated to it. Right.Lesley Logan 12:19  Really? A whole lobe (Dr. Philippe: Yeah, a whole lobe.) Just for our, just for our vision.Dr. Philippe Douyon 12:23  Just for our vision. Right. The occipital lobe, right. And so when you're visualizing what you want something to look like, it is incredibly powerful, because it really allows you to reorganize all the wiring within your brain. It allows you to make new neurons and make new connections within your brain. And then when you start visualizing something, and you really start to focus on it, not only do you start seeing clues in the universe that are like, "Oh, okay, maybe this is attainable." Right? But then you start believing that that's going to come true. And then when you start believing that it's going to come true, then you start acting upon that, right? And so visualizing but I wanted my future to look like was incredibly important. Because one of the things that I see all the time, especially people on dialysis, they look like they are waiting to die. (Lesley: Yeah) Right. They look like they're, they're just waiting for the end to come.Lesley Logan 13:17  Yeah. And just for just for people who maybe don't know what dialysis is, can you just do the quick, like, layman's terms of what that entails? Because from what I know, this is like, this isn't like you're going like every once in a while into the doctor. This is like almost a daily thing, right?Dr. Philippe Douyon 13:32  Yeah. So this is a three time a week thing. Okay. So your kidneys filter your blood so it can remove toxins. And when your kidneys aren't working well, then you need a way to do that. And dialysis is a way to do that. So through that dialysis, you either have like a port in your chest, or they make graft in your arm. And they're able to stick some tubes in three times a week for about four hours at a time. And they literally just suck your blood out. And it goes through a machine that then filters the blood and then the blood comes back into your body. And it feels like they are just, you know, sort of draining the life out of you when this is happening. (Lesley: Yeah) Right. So dialysis is not an easy process for anybody.Lesley Logan 14:17  Yeah. So you were for so during last year, you are going through dialysis. So every other day, you're ...Dr. Philippe Douyon 14:24  Every other day, (Lesley: sitting ...) Monday, Wednesday, Friday,Lesley Logan 14:26  sitting in this chair, next to a bunch of people (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) waiting to die and you are visualizing what you're wanting next.Dr. Philippe Douyon 14:38  Right. So let me, let me take it back a step. (Lesley: Yeah) So when I was told that I was going to need dialysis, I I cried. I was actually hospitalized for COVID, I cried. Right. And then I had to make a decision. I had to decide, "Am I going to do dialysis the way I've seen all these other patients do it in the hospital or am I going to do dialysis my own way?" So after I let all those tears out, I was just like, "You know what, I'm going to do dialysis my own way." I traveled on dialysis because you have dialysis centers all around the country (Lesley: Yeah) or around the world, right? So they'll set up for you, you know, in some other part of the country. So I dia... I traveled on dialysis. I had a local news agency, follow me around. So like, I had to take videos into the dialysis center for them, which I'm sure the center was not happy about. You know, I had to, I took business meetings during dialysis. I certainly rested also. (Lesley: Yeah) Yeah, I listened to my body, but I was like, "I'm not doing this the way that I've seen other people do it."Lesley Logan 15:37  Yeah, that is, so that is a very important step. And thank you for highlighting it, like you made a decision around how you're going to do something. And I think a lot of people don't realize the agency or the choice, they have to go into a lot of the things that are obstacles or frustrations or a medical condition. Does it make it does it... you know, I hate I don't want anyone who is going through something to think that like, I don't think that there's pain in what you're going through. But I do think that we too often don't give ourselves the opportunity to find some good or find some opportunity or find some something out of the thing that we're going through.Dr. Philippe Douyon 16:16  Right. You know, and I think no matter what we're going through in life, that you can pull something good out of it, you can, you know, think about it very differently. So that way you can potentially learn a lesson in it. (Lesley: Yeah.) Right. (Lesley: Yeah.) And for me, part of that, was that yeah, dialysis was something I was very fearful about, I made a decision decided to do it differently, right. And now, I can go and speak to people who are on dialysis, and teach them how I did it. (Lesley: Yeah.) Right. And some of the lessons that I've learned, while you know, we're talking about sort of my journey through kidney disease and transplant, but they're applicable to anybody, it doesn't have to be a medical issue. You know, it can certainly be addiction, which is a medical issue, it could be person that lost that job, right? It could be a person, like you mentioned who got divorce, could be somebody who's struggling in business, it could be anything. (Lesley: Yeah.) There's always something good to pull out of it but it all depends on your perspective.Lesley Logan 17:16  Yeah. So let's talk about perspective. Is that a free wired thing in our brain to have perspective, that maybe you don't know the answer, but I'm curious, like, is glass half full versus glass half empty, like a set set setting in your brain based on genetics? Or is that something that we can we can make a decision around?Dr. Philippe Douyon 17:38  Well, you can always make a decision around. But I will say this, the priority that your brain has, the reason one of the big reasons that you actually have a brain is to keep you safe. That is its first responsibility to keep you safe. And so your brain is always going to lean towards the negative, right? Because that's it... Listen, if you're scared of something, I mean, it's essentially keeping you safe. (Lesley: Yeah.) Right? If you're not taking that risk, it's essentially because there is uncertainty in things that are unknown, it is keeping you safe. Right? But sometimes, the brains because the brain focuses so much on keeping us safe, it can potentially hold us back. (Lesley: Yeah.) Right? And so that's one of the reasons why I talk to people all the time about, like, you have to take charge of your brand, you've got to be the leader that your brain so desperately needs you to be in order for you to create an amazing life for yourself.Lesley Logan 18:34  Yeah, so which lobe do I need to do? (Lesley and Dr. Philippe laughs) How to, because like, the like, I'm, I'm picturing this, right, because (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) I'm a visual person. So I'm like picturing like a video of like, I have to take charge of my brain. But isn't that my brain taking charge of my brain.Dr. Philippe Douyon 18:49  No, you know. (Lesley: No. Okay.) No ... I would say that the fact that you are aware of your thoughts, the fact that you are aware that you have a brain means that there's a higher level of consciousness. You just have to tap into it.Lesley Logan 19:06  Yes. Oh, thank you for explaining that because now I know I don't feel like it's like, like those Russian dolls that(Lesley and Dr. Philippe laughs) I'm like, but part is ... So, so that makes sense. So for everyone listening, I hope you just got full permission. Like it's okay if you're like, "Wow, I don't like how I'm thinking negatively," like, you're predisposed to keep you safe, to keep you alive to think that way. (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) And then you we all have to take this higher consciousness that we have, because we do all have it and, and tell ourselves how we're going to think because we we can tell that that situation is actually not the same as a tiger chasing after us, you know.Dr. Philippe Douyon 19:40  Right, exactly. Right.Lesley Logan 19:42  So you know, first of all you so you're a doctor for epilepsy, you've studied the brain. What made you want to do that and what what what what are you seeing that is applicable to people with all have a brain? So you know, we don't all is there anything that we could be doing better with our own mind right now and what we're doing?Dr. Philippe Douyon 20:03  Sure, so, so I'm a neurologist. So I'm a doctor who treats people with brain and other neurological disorders, nerve disorder, spinal cord issues. But yeah, I sort of sub specialized in epilepsy. And so the reason that I went into neurology, and then epilepsy was one when I was a kid, I had a cousin who had epilepsy, and she ended up growing out of it. And then two also when I was young, I had a grandmother who developed Alzheimer's disease. And, you know, those two disorders are really devastating for the person going through it. But they're also devastating for the family. (Lesley: Yeah) Right? And so while I was watching, my family members go through what they were going through, there was that part of me that started to realize, "Man, when the brain works the way that it's supposed to, it's absolutely phenomenal." (Lesley: Yeah) Right? So it was this fascination that I had with the brain that led me down sort of this path. And so in medical school, right, I mean, you just learn about diseases and treating them with medications, and whatever. (Lesley: Yeah) But the reality is, everything that we do, every single day, impacts the health of our bodies, it impacts the health of our brain, and it has an impact on our neurological destiny and how our lives turn out.Lesley Logan 21:24  Well, taking that in, because I think so often, we excuse that, "I'll do that tomorrow, I'll do that tomorrow. Oh, I'll you know, buy that healthier groceries type thing tomorrow," like we kind of procrastinate but really like, it almost sounds like it's compounding, like, if it's every single day, everything we do is going to affect our brain and our body. Then the sooner that like, it's almost like the more time you have giving your brain and body what it needs, the better.Dr. Philippe Douyon 21:53  Absolutely. I mean, when we think about so your brain is considered to be the most complicated structure in the entire solar system. Right? (Lesley: In the solar system? I never...) in the solar system, right? I mean, but look, we haven't explored, like, I haven't been to other parts of the solar system. (Lesley: Right, right.) Right? So I have no idea. You know, and humans tend to be biased. So who knows, the whales (Lesley laughs) could be far more complicated than our brain, right? But, but our brains have anywhere between 60 to 100 billion neurons, right? Neurons are not even the primary cell type in the brain, there are a whole host of other cells called glial cells that are just there to help neurons out and support neurons. They outnumber neurons like nine to one, ten to one. (Lesley: Oh, my God.) Then you've got neurons connect with each other, they make trillions of connections, right? So you've got 60 to 100 billion neurons, you got other cells that are out number nine or 10 to one, and you've had all these connections, that is incredibly complicated, you know. (Lesley: Yeah) And the reality is, there are things that we do every single day that influence whether or not we lose neurons, or make more neurons. But if you start thinking a certain thought, right, and maybe it's a brand new thought, thought you've never had before, right, you'll make new neurons around that thought, the more you think about that thought, the more hardwired it gets into your brain, the more connections that it makes, right? And so you want to be being aware of the thoughts that you're having. And then you also want to be making sure that you are leaning towards the positive and not towards the negative.Lesley Logan 23:27  Yeah. Yeah because why our thoughts become facts. And like, I forget the number but somebody you might know it. There's like some number of like, how many thoughts we have in a day and (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) have like, 90% of the same thought, like when (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) you're having new thoughts. And (Dr. Philippe: No) so you're just like, that's just further hardwiring, even a negative thought or something that's holding you back.Dr. Philippe Douyon 23:46  Yeah, it's it's thought that we have anywhere between 12,000 to 60,000 thoughts per day. I don't know who counted that. I don't know how they counted that. (Lesley: I've always wondered. I'm like, "Who said that?") Yeah, I have no idea. Right? And like you said, 90 to 95% of those thoughts are the same exact thoughts we had yesterday, right? So no wonder why people's lives aren't changing. And then 60 to 70% of those 12,000 to 60,000 thoughts are negative. (Lesley: Yeah) And so you wonder why everybody's freaking miserable.Lesley Logan 24:13  Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so we can make a decision there's that, we can have a thought and we can look for evidence to solidify that thought in our mind. (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) Is there anything else we can do? Because, as we talked about before hit record, like our minds are holding us back like I think any person listen to this can pretty much do whatever they are wanting to do. Like the we live in a very awesome time to have whatever dream you want and meet the person, find the people, raise the money to do the thing. So what is it in our brain? What lobe is ... where is it (Dr. Philippe laughs) that we, that is like holding us back? Is that that negative mindset? Is it the repetitive thoughts like Where's it coming from?Dr. Philippe Douyon 24:58  Yeah, I mean, you you it's it's all of it. Right? And certainly our frontal lobes are incredibly important in our ability to think about tasks, organize them and execute those tasks. Right? And so you really want to be incredibly mindful of what you're letting into your brain. And it's not just the thoughts that you're letting in. It's the foods that you're eating. It's what you're drinking. It's all of it. Right? I'll tell you, I don't I don't listen to the news anymore. (Lesley: Right) Right. When COVID happened, I was glued to the news. Right. I remember in December, what are we? 2022? (Lesley: Yeah) December 2020. (Lesley: Yeah.) Right. I'm listening to the news about COVID. And they're like, "300,000, you know, new people were infected today." And I remember thinking to myself, "Damn, everybody's gonna get infected. You're infecting 300,000 people every day." (Lesley: Yeah) Eventually, it's gonna hit everybody. Right? (Lesley: Yeah.) Two weeks later, I was hospitalized with COVID. Now, I am a medical doctor. Okay, so, so in theory, I know how viruses work. I know how, you know, they move between people. But there was still part of me that was like, "Damn, did I attract this thing into my life?" Because I was so fixated on it. (Lesley: Yeah.) After that, I was like, "I need to be very mindful of what I am letting into this brain."Lesley Logan 26:20  Yeah, you're I, you know, you're you're right. I listen to this one podcast with my husband. And one of the hosts was like asking someone who's very prominent in the news, very on top of like, "What's happening in the world?" The guy goes all over the world and just happens to be there when there's these humanity needs. And they're like, so, "How, who gets, how do you get the news? What do you watch? How do you get this?" He's like, "I get the, I get the news, like you do. And I also only get it from like, 10 minutes a day." And I was like, "What?" And the guy was like, "What?" And other hosts was like, "You don't turn it on the moment you wake up? Don't you need to know what's going on." And you could just hear in the voices like the, like, the nervousness, the stress (Dr. Philippe: No.) of this person who was like, glued to the news versus the person who's part of what has happened in the news. And he was like, not that he was like, you know, let it all be, but he wasn't as urgent. And I do think that like we have, I agree, because I, we don't have a TV in our house. I haven't had a TV since 2013. And so part of that is because as soon as I get a hotel room, of course, I like turn the TV on. And that's the news. And it's just like, it is a lot of intensity, I end up being so depressed, but (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) beautiful city, and I'm like, "Oh my god, the world's crashing in." And so you are saying, like, you're very mindful of like, "What am I going to let in the spring? What thoughts am I going to have?" And all of that so that you can continue to do what it is that you do (Dr. Philippe: Right) each and every day? So okay, that's, that's interesting. So for those of us who are trying to be it till we see it, we actually have to make a decision, first of like how do we want to do things differently? How do we want to think about our thoughts? How do we want to handle the thoughts, we don't want to have any more? It's very much being aware of what you are doing all the time, (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) which for most of us, that's like common sense. But also not because too many of us rely on like our brain to go on autopilot.Dr. Philippe Douyon 28:11  Right. Yeah. And, but one of the keys is not to be so hard on yourself also, right? Because you're gonna have negative thoughts. I have negative thoughts, right? You're gonna have moments where you're like, oh, you know, I caught this on Instagram. And I'm, like, fixated on it, or some something, right. Or you'll have those friends that like to complain, and you'll catch yourself and, you know, 10 minutes that you're just that's all you're doing with them complaining about life with them, right? And so it's about not being so hard on yourself. But the more that you're aware that you're doing this, the easier it'll get, the quicker you'll you'll realize when these things are happening, and the easier you'll be able to shift to a more positive mindset. Right? So I'm even very mindful of who I have around me. I'm like, "Oh, if you're complaining way too much today. Yeah, I love you. But you need to go over there."Lesley Logan 29:01  I hear you. I was, I was on a trip. And I can I was I was in our van I was changing and I could hear our friends. And one of them was saying something like, "Oh my God, he this is the 17th negative thing he said today." Like, "What when, we're gonna say something positive? Like they all, can't all be bad, like look where we are. We are here in this beautiful place." And it's so I think I think where a lot of people get hung up as they don't want to let people down. They don't want to be the person, you know what I mean? Like we all there's a lot of stories that we tell ourselves which (Dr. Philippe: Right) are repeti... repetitive thoughts that we are (Dr. Philippe: Right) continuing to have and keep around. So, so okay, question for you. (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) With, with all of this, with with our, with our brain with how, what is something that you see people could easily do that they're not doing that could benefit their brain so they could continue to live their life to what they want to live. Is it, is it, is it a brain game? Is it Sudoku? Like what do I gotta do?Dr. Philippe Douyon 30:03  No. No, it's not Sudoku. And it's not any brain games. It's nothing that they sell you, it's not you know, it's not some pill, supplement or some drink.Lesley Logan 30:14  Yeah, I have a new game that's like, this will tell you how old your brain is. (Lesley and Dr. Philippe laughs) (Dr. Philippe: Really?) Yeah. I haven't played it. I get the ads. I'm like, I'm like, "Is this real? So thank you. It's not. I won't tell them my thoughts."Dr. Philippe Douyon 30:25  Yeah. It's not although, although, you know, I shouldn't say that. Because I did create a game called Dr. Douyon's Brainfit. (Lesley laughs) But yeah, it's not it's not in the game.Lesley Logan 30:34  If it's not that it's not titled up with your name on it but it's not, it's not it.Dr. Philippe Douyon 30:37  That is not. No, no. Dr. Douyon's Brainfit is very different. (Lesley: Yeah, yeah.) No, but it's, it's things that we can easily do every day. So I've got like this, this neurological pyramid and that has steps that you can do to keep your brain very healthy and keep yourself very healthy. And it's not complicated. It is exercise. Exercise is the biggest promoter of neuroplasticity. That's your brain's ability to adapt, to heal and to learn. It's your brain's ability to make new neurons and new connections. Exercise is the biggest promoter of that. Right? So you want to be exercising on a regular basis.Lesley Logan 31:10  Yeah. So you said neuroplasticity? I know it. As a Pilates instructor I want my my girlfriend's teaches it, but for the person who's like, "What? Neuroplas what?" Can you tell people what that is?Dr. Philippe Douyon 31:21  Yeah. So for an incredibly long time, we thought that our brains were very static, like they did not change at all, unless we got a brain injury that wiped out some neurons, or we got like Alzheimer's, you know, which is a neurodegenerative disease and you start losing neurons, right? But what we now know is that our brains are constantly changing. They're constantly evolving every single day. They're evolving with the thoughts that we have, the actions we take, the experiences that we're having. And the reality is that we are in control of our brain's ability to evolve, our brain's ability to make new neurons and make new connections. And that's where really what neuroplasticity speaks to, it's the brain's ability to change.Lesley Logan 32:07  Very cool. Okay. All right. So so you have, so thank you for that. So you have a pyramid that we can do that helps with that neuroplasticity, that helps us continue to evolve in our brain. (Dr. Philippe: Yeah.) I love this. Very cool. Okay. So, Dr. Philippe Douyon this is amazing. I really actually didn't realize how much I want to nerd out about the brain until this episode. But I'm really excited about it. I want to take a quick, quick break. And then I want people to figure out how they can basically stalk you on this brain game of yours. Okay, so where can people find you, follow you learn about how they can work with their brain better?Dr. Philippe Douyon 32:46  Yeah. So they can follow me on the social media channels like Instagram, it's @philippe.md. That's my handle. They can go to my website, which is www.inlebrainfitinstitute.com. Or they can just email me at philippedouyon@gmail.com. And if they email me that, if they email me, with Be It Till You See It in the subject line, I will send them my free ebook.Lesley Logan 33:15  Oh, that is so fun. (Dr. Philippe: Yeah.) Thank you, everyone, get your ebook. I want it. Okay, so we'll put all those things in the show notes. It's really easy for you to click on and get those things. So we ask everyone, how do we actually take action and all this. So bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted steps people can take to (Dr. Philippe: Yeah.) be it till they see it? What do you have for us?Dr. Philippe Douyon 33:38  So here's what they can do. First, they need to change the way that they think about things, right. And one of the ways that you do that is you read different material, you have different experiences, you surround yourself with different people. So changing the way that you think about your life and your health is incredibly important. We talked a little bit about exercise, exercise every single day, get your body moving. Right. I said before, that's the biggest promoter of neuroplasticity. You want to visualize? I said that, look you've got an entire lobe that is dedicated to your vision, you want to visualize and just so the people who are watching this podcast realize, yes, I am in black and white. (Lesley laughs) I am in 2022. This is a technical issue. This is not a visual problem with your brain. Do not call your local neurologist. (Dr. Philippe laughs)Lesley Logan 34:26  We are recording this, we are recording this during retrograde, everyone. I, just let it go. (Lesley and Dr. Philippe laughs)Dr. Philippe Douyon 34:31  Yeah, you know. You want to make a decision, in terms of what you decide to focus on. We have a group of neurons in the brain called the reticular activating system. When you decide that something is important to you, it starts it gets your brain to focus on all those things that are related to it. So if it's something that's negative that you focus on, right, it's gonna it's gonna pull everything negative. So if I'm having a bad day, and I'm like, "Oh, that person just pissed me off." It's gonna be like, "well, not only that person pissed me off, the world sucks, my life sucks, that book I'm reading sucks," all of it right? So you want to focus on the positive. And I'll give you an example of this. So once I got like this had this red car, this red Volkswagen Golf, right? I had never seen it before I got it. Then all sudden, I'm seeing a whole bunch of people on the road with this red Volkswagen Golf. That is the reticular activating system saying, "Hey, because this is now important to you, because you have one. I'm going to focus on all the red Volkswagen Golf's that are driving down the street. Right.Lesley Logan 35:34  That I know because I had a Mini Cooper, I noticed that and when I got a jeep, I noticed that and now (Dr. Philippe: Yeah) I want a G Wagon. Like I want it. I see G Wagons everywhere. I only see G Wagons. I don't see other cars. And I also have gotten other people's particular reticulating activating systems to see G Wagons for me. So I get pictures (Dr. Philippe: Right.) like, "Hey, look at this one." (Lesley and Dr. Philippe laughs)Dr. Philippe Douyon 35:56  Well I'm sure, I'll see see, you know some tonight when I'm driving. So, (Lesley: Yeah. It's powerful.) Yeah.Lesley Logan 36:01  Got it. Oh, man. (Dr. Philippe: Yeah.) These are, these are so cool. These first of all, like unique and amazing and also very tangible and doable. I really (Dr. Philippe: Right.) think so. Thank you (Dr. Philippe: Yeah.) for, thank you for being here. We'll have to have you back because I'm sure Brad's going to totally nerd out about this. And for all that you're doing to help all of us. Truly, like, take ownership of our brain and like where we're going with it. We need more people like you in this planet. So thank you for being here. Everyone, how are you going to use these in your life? I want you to tag @philippe.md, tag the @be_it_pod, let us know which of the takeaways, the BE IT action items you're using or just what he said.

Walk with us as we stroll pass artwork at Art Gowanus in Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn - Halloween Style. We visit Strand book store for their rarest book finds on the 3rd floor in Manhattan. We ponder about Calgary, Canada in our thoughts of what the next park bench should say. In our hands, we each have a protein shake, only to build our brains and make us live longer. We hold up signs saying, Free Britney Spears!, because we miss her very much. A Beyoncé parrot comes in the way singing, If I was a boy. Oh, what an eventful day! Say aloud: "Today, I will not stress over things I can't control" Good News Crew Bench Sayings: Hollow Cindy - Live today as if it was your last! Deer Oh, Sylvia - Don't fart on me. Dayna, the working woman - Come on down! Sit on me. Matt Boner - Think for yourself and question reality. Gary Gacy - Want a Klondike? Just clowning around. Mwahahaha!

We've gone to some length covering Slack, Zoom, and other software companies, as the 2020 work from home environment has accelerated and amplified business's rush to the cloud. But what about email, that old standby? Where does it fit in? We got the chance to speak with Rahul Vohra, someone whose career has been built on optimizing email. He founded Rapportive, a Gmail plug-in, before selling that to LinkedIn for what was reported to be $15M. He is now the founder and CEO of Superhuman, a service that also builds on gmail and is dedicated to providing the fastest email experience ever. He filled us in on what Superhuman is seeing in the 2020 market, whether a $360/year product is consigned to a niche, what the entrant of a new competitor - Hey, from Basecamp - portends, and how gamification goes right or wrong. He also shared his thoughts on the recent Apple app store arguments that Hey prompted, and what his favorite video games were growing up.   Topics Covered: 2:30 minute mark - The role of email in the modern collaboration landscape: Is Email dead? 7:30 – Initial impact of asynchronicity, work from home, COVID 10:30 – Superhuman user experience 16:30 – The onboarding process, that Verge review, and unit economics 23:30 – The niche question 29:30 – Competition, Hey's entrance into the market 42:30 – The Communications bundling/unbundling 46:30 – Demographic questions 52:30 – Among the giants 54:30 – App Store controversy 57:30 – Gamification 1:02:30 – Public SaaS valuations and what is possible for start-ups Sources worth checking out in context of this conversation: Walt Mossberg: Yes, You've Still Got Mail The Smart but Scattered Guide to Success: How to Use Your Brain's Executive Skills to Keep Up, Stay Calm, and Get Organized at Work and at Home (Book) Verge: Superhuman's email app is overhyped and overpriced Churn FM: How Superhuman avoids churn by systematically increasing product-market fit (Podcast) First Round: How Superhuman Built An Engine To Find Product/Market Fit TheInformation: The Tech Entrepreneur Who Loves To Troll Silicon Valley

THIS IS A STORY ABOUT SOLITUDE, RESISTANCE AND DISCOVERY THIS TIME THE PODCAST IS ON VIDEO GO AND WATCH IT - I LOVE THE SPECIAL EFFECTS :-) AND AUDIO When was the last time you pushed your brain beyond the limits? And remember how orgasmic this feeling is?  A little outtake: At the end of day one - giving in to every single desire my brain was asking for, I was shocked. And my mind was just pondering around the topic: being in-distractable, being distracted, pleasing every desire we have etc. And just before going to bed I made a vow: to push my brain out of the comfort zone as much as I could. That would imply not to please my desires - except for the necessary ones like going to the bathroom, eating, sleeping and swimming in the ocean. It would also imply not to stop thinking about the book. Which would mean to think about the book for 24 hours a day - with a notebook and a pen on the side. I woke up the next day and started my „push-my-brain-beyond-the-limits“ program.
