How to Increase Brainpower
You're working like a crazy @^^^@.
- You trying to complete Task ABC for a client by tonight.
- But, you've lost yourself by the many gory details that you haven't comprehended.
- As a result, you're using tremendous brainpower to get barely anything done.
You're only 10% there. You feel like you're getting dumberer.
'I've over-exerting my brain!' you scream.
How to Get More Out of Your Brain
Think of it like this:
- The more you have to think about doing something, the more you use your brain.
- The less you think = the more you conserve your brainpower fuel. Yay!
How can you do stuff without thinking?
Remember when you first started driving?
- You thought about every-frickin'-little-detail about driving correctly.
- Your hands were in a 10-and-2 position.
- You adjusted all mirrors.
- You did safety checks. SAFETY CHECKS.
- You ensured you were tightly positioned in your seat.
And yet, you still sucked.
Flash forward 10 years later.
You wake up late, screaming: 'I'm late to an uber-important meeting!!'
- You're blasting the radio.
- You're switching lanes like it's nobody's business.
- You're on your headset doing a call with your boss.
- You're eating a frickin' apple. APPLE.
- You arrive in style.
What just happened?
When you were:
- 17 years old: You used your entire brainpower to drive.
- 27 years old: You barely used any brainpower to drive.
So-what's-the-deal-i-o?
You use less of your brainpower when you set a routine.
- You start to think less about performing a task.
- It gradually becomes automatic.
- You gradually become sexier.
It's like brushing your teeth.
- Some 3-year-old chump has to look in the mirror.
- You on the other hand can do it with your eyes closed, while jumping on one foot.
Routines = crazy good = more brainpower fuel conserved for you.
