Procrastination. It’s simply about your brain doing mathematics.

“Back to the brain, neuroscience, procrastination, and how you can improve your brain’s mathematics to make sure that you actually do DO what you plan to move things forward in life and business. Without action, no matter how much you believe in the law of attraction – no action, no change, no results.

Why do we procrastinate? Why do we procrastinate on some things, sometimes but not on other things, not other times?“

Goals. Smart is old. Neuroscience-based visual tools to help you ACHIEVE the goals you set.

“As I learned, goal-achieving and long-term motivation to pursue hard goals have a lot to do with our vision. How we look at things metaphorically and quite literally impacts what actions we take, how we take those actions, and for how long we can stick with those actions to achieve goals.

NARROW FOCUS

Elite marathoners use the same strategy to hit their record time as entrepreneurs use to build long-standing businesses.”

It ain’t about badges. Games are fun. Work is not. Why? Neuroscience of gaming. Where managers got it all wrong.

“Speaking about badges, speaking about rewards. One of the reasons why leaders find it difficult to incentivize people is that when they design a system of incentives, it always works the same. It’s predictable. And THAT is the problem. Predictability is boring. It’s not that people don’t like financial incentives. It’s just after a while it becomes mundane. You do this – you get this. The brain learns it and it’s bored.”

Want to Improve Your Creativity and Focus? Try Eating Chocolate for Breakfast.

“Chocolate is one of few foods that stimulates all the five brain chemicals of flow. It either has the building blocks for these chemicals, or it makes our brain create more of them due to the hundreds of phytochemicals chocolate contains, or chocolate compounds help flow chemicals to stay in the brain for longer — all the avenues of flow-boosting effects that chocolate produces aren’t clear yet.”

Why Smart Drugs Don’t Make You Smarter

“Just like lack of regular, good quality sleep will make our mental performance compromised — no matter how many cups of caffeine we consume — smart drugs can only work on top of great brain chemistry. In addition, being conditioned by good lifestyle and eating habits. Habits that positively affect our blood sugar levels, brain blood circulation and brain inflammation levels. When we habitually make choices that make our blood sugar spike and dip, that reduce our brain blood flow and create more inflammation in our brain — no smart drug will make a big difference. Once addressed, you might find, to your own amazement, that all of a sudden all the pills, smart drugs and supplements start working like magic.”

Eat These 3 Breakfast Foods to Improve Your Focus

“Any brain or mental state — feelings like focus, drive, motivation, anxiety, brain fog, feeling sad, kind or grateful — are all chemical states in our brain. Food, too, consists of pounds of chemicals that we eat every day. Food changes our brain chemistry at every meal.

Can we eat for more focus? The answer is a definite yes. Focus is a cocktail of very specific neuro-chemicals, and it has a recipe.

Here’s my favorite breakfast to help your brain make more focus neuro-chemicals.”
