Whenever I learn something new I remember of Starcraft, an old strategy game for PC. There, the entire map was hidden to you and you didn’t have any idea of what was there until you started walking and exploring that part of the map. Once you explored it, then it would become part of the…

We’ve all been there. We are bored while doing something. We would much rather prefer being somewhere else and doing something we enjoy.We live in the age of boredom, or maybe we live in the age of high entertainment. Notifications from your app, gamification in anything to create little addictions.  The boredom in some cases…

I’m currently trying to live more in the now, this requires (for me) a strikingly high amount of attention and dedication because my mind will always try to move towards the past (things I’ve done) or the future (things I need to do). One of the side consequences of letting only the “now” in, is…

If you’ll ever start meditating, even a simple breath meditation, you might notice that you’re terrible at it. That you will fail constantly. What’s even the use in trying doing it if these are the results?As you’d expect, though, it’s normal to fail. As we do in many many areas of our life, the first…

It’s not always sunny. There will be days when your mind is foggy, there will be days when your ideas won’t be special. We are not made to reach peak performance every day, to go to the extremes. Quite the opposite. The shallow days are a fundamental part of having great days because they give…

Managing your attention might require time and effort, but it’s worth it.In an economy where attention is the new money and the goal is to steal your mind time, then being able to direct your attention correctly is not easy. It was never easy to begin with, but now, with the increasing technologies that ask…

You might get lost in the arguments, but there are times when taking a stand is important. “Have strong opinions, loosely held”, this is key, as it was said many times before. Be bold in your intentions, but kind towards others. Be open to different points of view and question the assumptions. And when you…
