Show Notes

  • The force that propels everything positive in life is the force of connection.
  • We often overestimate brain power and underestimate dream power and hope power.
  • The notion of mindset is extremely well documented. A growth mindset or a limited mindset becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.
  • We are only limited to our capacity to dream big.
  • You have the power to take whatever notion you have and change the world.
  • What drives the good at its core is the power of love.
  • Attention is the most precious resource we have and it’s being consumed in today’s world.
  • The big decision you have to make every day is where you are going to focus your attention.
  • You can’t maintain a single level of focus throughout the day.
  • ADD is not a disorder, it’s a trait.
  • Visionary dreamers are the origin of our gene pool.
  • You have to learn how to control the power of your mind. It’s like having a ferrari engine for a mind with bicycle brakes.
  • Structures and constraints will allow you to be exponentially more creative.
  • How to grab attention – SEARCH: Scare, Excite/Educate, Attack/Annoy/Amaze, Reassure/Reward, Charm, Help
  • Hold to hold attention – SIN: Structure, Interaction, Novelty
  • The interactive screen is extremely focusing, which is also the danger.
  • Every hour or so, you need to give your brain a break. Stand up and walk around.
  • A lot of managing your own attention is how you prepare for a project. To prepare your energy you need: sleep, exercise, nutrition, meditation, cognitive stimulation, and positive human contact.
  • Connection and brains are really good for you. It’s free and in infinite supply. Spend time with people that you care about.
  • Lead a connected life. Social isolation is as dangerous a risk factor for early death as cigarette smoking.
  • Be inappropriate, be vulnerable. What do you have to lose?
  • Your sweet spot falls in what you love to do, what you’re good at, and what advances your mission or someone will pay you to do.
  • Don’t be with people that will bring you down.
  • Beware of feeling busy, it’s not good for you. You need to do what matters most to you everyday and to do that you need a plan.
