@fearless_rising Hi Sarah. I really admire your work. Most of my team is struggling with work/life balance issues. I feel neuroscience is key to resolving work/life balance issues. Would you be willing to do a 30 min presentation to a group of 10? If yes, my DM is open.
The Eisenhower Decision Matrix
Learn the difference between urgent and important.
Place tasks on a 2x2 matrix:
• Important & Urgent
• Important & Not Urgent
• Not Important & Urgent
• Not Important & Not Urgent
Prioritize, delegate, or delete accordingly.
The Feynman Technique
Four steps to learn anything new:
(1) Identify a topic
(2) Try to explain it to a child
(3) Study to fill in gaps
(4) Organize, convey, and review
True genius is the ability to simplify, not complicate.
Simple is beautiful.
Time Billionaire
Time is our most precious asset.
When you're young, you are a "time billionaire”—rich with time.
Too many people fail to realize the value of this asset until it is gone.
Treat time as your ultimate currency—it’s all you have and you can never get it back.
@BehavioralMacro The 5yr nominal yield is gently picking up so that doesn’t that mean that inflation expectations are picking up? The steep drop in 5yr real yields should be theory be a catalyst for gold due to the traditionally positive correlation between 2 x leveraged TIPS and gold.
Anger and aggression sometimes seem to be protective because they bring energy to bear on a particular situation, but what needs to be acknowledged is that that energy is blind. It takes a calm mind to be able to consider things from different angles and points of view.
Anger and fear undermine our immune system, while warm-heartedness brings peace of mind. Therefore, just as we teach children to comply with physical hygiene for the good of their health, we should also counsel them in a kind of hygiene of the emotions.
We seek happiness in external things without realizing that they don’t help when we have problems within. We need to focus instead on the joy that comes with peace of mind that allows us to remain happy whatever happens.
