SCIENCE: The brain doesn’t get tired from thinking — it gets tired from switching attention.

This explains why: 2 hours of deep study can feel energizing whereas 30 minutes of distracted scrolling can feel exhausting.

The most dangerous addiction today isn't a substance.

Research on 100,000 people confirms that heavy short-form video use is just voluntary cognitive decline. We are actively training our brains to fail at hard tasks.

If you can simply sit with a problem for 10 minutes without swiping, you have a massive competitive advantage.

Basically, boredom is the new IQ.

May be the #1 parenting mistake of the past 20 years: parents treating iPads/tablets like mini-televisions. iPads/Tablets significantly damage a child’s brain. How can we stop parents from giving their child tablets? What can be done to get schools to stop using tablets?

“Everything has two handles. You can see something as hard and painful and that’s why you shouldn’t do it. Or, you can think of something as hard and painful and that’s why you should do it, learn from it, open yourself up to it.”

@JeffHelfrichOR Accelerate smart logging / timber: drives growth / jobs, reduces fire risk, turns an expense (wild fire fighting) into a revenue (timber), and keeps the carbon in the timber vs. wild fire burned into the air

At 54, here’s something I think about a lot:

The good old days don’t feel like it at the time.

It feels more like struggle.

From the age of 25 to 45, you’re in the thick of it—building a career, raising kids, trying to get ahead (or just keep up with life). It’s so easy to lose perspective and forget that…

You’re in the sweet spot.

One day you’ll look back on that struggle as the best of times. Every season of life has its pros and cons—triumphs and challenges—but there’s nothing quite like the prime adult years.

So what are we to do about it?

Simply recognize that you’re living your good old days right now.

Slow down. Savor it. Smell the roses.

Because I’m here to tell you…

The days are long, but the years fly by.
