Mindsip insights from this episode:
Leverage creatine to boost cognitive performance and mental energy
The supplement creatine is not just for building muscle; it has also been shown to be very effective for cognitive performance and mental energy.
Read faster to maintain focus and reduce distractions
If you get distracted while reading, it's likely because you are reading too slowly, which starves your brain of stimulus and causes it to seek distraction elsewhere.
Play table tennis to boost brain health and coordination
According to Dr. Daniel Amen, table tennis is the number one physical activity for the brain because it enhances reaction time, speed, and hand-eye coordination.
Pursue harmony over balance for a fulfilling life
Instead of striving for a stressful life balance, aim for harmony, where different life areas contribute unequally but create a beautiful symphony.
Use your finger to instantly boost reading speed by 25-50%
Using your finger as a visual pacer while reading can immediately increase your reading speed by 25-50% or more.
Ask three questions to transform knowledge into action
To turn knowledge into action, ask three questions while learning: "How can I use this?", "Why must I use this?", and "When will I use this?".
Create friction to break bad habits
Make undesirable behaviors harder to do by intentionally creating friction, such as using a slow TV that takes minutes to load streaming services.
Structure your day: create, consume, clear
Structure your day by creating in the morning, consuming information in the afternoon, and clearing your mind in the evening.
Read fiction to enhance empathy and emotional intelligence
Reading fiction is not a waste of time as research shows it can improve your empathy, problem-solving skills, and emotional quotient (EQ).
