This is killing your brain
|
Staying on a dead end is madness. You know it. But your reptile brain keeps you down. Quiet. Without moving. There are too many dangers outside the tribe. Too much fear. This is the reason why: People stay in marriages where there is no longer any love People stay at dead-end jobs People hang on to old clothes and things they never use People stay in towns where they have no future People stay friends with people who hold them back ​ Too comfy to move. Too comfy to admit that the absence of movement is killing you silently… but faster than you think. If you don’t practice a language, you lose it in a couple of years. If you don’t do any sport, your muscles atrophy in months. If you don’t use your brain, the absence of creativity, ideas, motivation will fill your day to day in months. ​ This is why is so critical to be exposed to new stimuli. Exposed to people that challenge you. Expose to difficult tasks. Exposed to new things. ​ Complaining is not movement. Taking actions, getting into something new is. ​ Below, some notes of movement for your brain.

They say that if you don’t get haters, it’s because you are unnoticed. They also say that if you don’t get sued, it’s because you are not achieving anything valuable. I may be talking a little personal here. But, apply this to the PPP world and you’ll get the same pattern. If you are an agency and some people don’t dislike you, you’re probably being average. You’re a kind of Care Bear, an Osito Amoroso. Spreading love. Fearful of upsetting anybody. You’re average in Averageland. And if you...
The Channel Tunnel. 50-km underwater megastructure linking France and the UK. An engineering icon. A masterpiece. A miracle of geology, finance, diplomacy, and caffeine or theine. A day like today in 1998. New Year’s Day. Half the team hungover. Half asleep. Half the world still partying. The temperature suddenly dropped. Outside: freezing. Inside the service tunnels: warm and humid. A perfect recipe for the gods of engineering to say: “Let’s mess with them.” Condensation froze. Ice formed on...
If you thought that I’ll be telling you happy new year stuff, you don’t know me enough. Once that you over drink and over eat tonight, you have one year ahead. To grow. To become better. To achieve great things. Up to you, what you want to do tomorrow. When there are some people messing around with “resaca” or a “hangover”, others will be running.
