The first 30 minutes after waking up could shape your entire day.
By the time you’re exhausted at night, your brain may be operating very differently.
Andrew Huberman put it simply: “Don’t say things tired.”
When we’re exhausted, our impulse control gets worse. The message you want to send, the argument you want to have or the decision that suddenly feels urgent can look completely different after some sleep.
That was one of many moments in this conversation that made me realise how much is happening inside our brains and bodies without us really understanding it.
Andrew is a neuroscientist and professor at Stanford, and what I value about speaking to him is that he goes beyond the simple health headlines and explains what is actually happening underneath them.
Cortisol isn’t simply “bad”. Ozempic isn’t only about weight loss. And some of the smallest things we do every day can have a surprisingly large effect on how we sleep, think and feel.
We covered things like:
- The 10 protocols to become the healthiest version of yourself
- When cortisol is actually good for you
- The eye movement trick that could help you fall asleep
- A neuroscientist’s perspective on God and religion
- The simple trick that can lower blood sugar spikes
One thing that really stayed with me was just how adaptable our brains are.
Andrew explained that repeatedly doing things you don’t want to do can physically change an area of the brain associated with tenacity. It made me look differently at the workout I want to skip, the difficult conversation I’m avoiding and those moments where choosing discomfort might actually prepare me for whatever comes next.
That’s why I enjoy conversations with Andrew. You leave with practical things you can use immediately but also ideas that change how you think about your own behaviour.
This conversation definitely did that for me.
I think it might for you too.

در انگلیسی اگرچیزی را نفهمی میگن یونانیه.
در یونان اگرنفهمیش میگن چینیه .
برعکس،در یونان وقتی به زبانی مسلط باشی ،مثلا میگن فرانسه اش مثل فارسیه. یا اگر کاری را خوب بلد باشی میگن مثل فارسی در آن کار استاده.
اینارا ما از عثمانیها یاد گرفتیم چون آنزمان علما باید فارسی بلد بودند.
Good morning. Make it a habit to wake up grateful, no matter what you're going through. Life may not be perfect, but it can always be worse. Stay mindful, stay humble, and stay thankful.

Incredible doc!
Nigerian surgeon temporarily removes baby from womb at 23 weeks, removes tumor, then puts her back and she was born healthy at 36 weeks.
Hats off please!
Iran has one of the highest average IQs in the world. Imagine how great this country could be if it wasn't held back by a savage 7th century Islamic regime.
Once Iran is free, it will be the next South Korea or Japan. That is the potential of Iran.
Make Iran Great Again.
