Two Brains: Short Term vs. Long Term
Somebody more intelligent than me pointed that we never fully understand anything. What we do is we go one step back in the line of causality. That step back gives a sense of ease and brings us calm. The more I study neuroscience, the more I agree with that view. Today's video is one example of what that means. When making a choice, do you ever feel like you have two brains? ...

Your weight or your marathon time will not give you confidence. Trust is not built on one particular outcome. Trust is built on regular delivery.

No matter what. I could drop the mic there and leave. But I will not. Get this. Your brain does not function as well when you are inactive. You are not as productive and your thinking is not as sharp. I am not talking about being super fit and lifting all the weights and doing...
