Episode notes
Protect Large Blocks For Deep Work
- Concentration is the secret of effectiveness: focus on one thing at a time to achieve major results.
- Say no and protect large, continuous chunks of time to shift from busywork to sustained achievement.
Momentum Through Back-to-Back Deep Work
- Brian describes finishing a deep work block and immediately starting the next note to keep momentum and score a micro win.
- He then begins a tough book, Metabolical, to continue focused progress on learning and output.
Chronic Disease Is Mitochondrial Failure
- Robert Lustig argues chronic disease equals mitochondrial dysfunction; they are one and the same.
- This reframes chronic illness as a cellular energy problem rather than isolated symptoms.
