Episode notes
Brain's Energy in Racing
- Driving a race car uses about 80% of the brain's energy to run the body alone, leaving limited mental capacity for emotional distractions.
- Emotional thoughts consume the remaining brain power, impairing focus and decision-making in critical moments.
Emotions Disrupt Focus
- Negative questions and statements trigger emotional responses that distract from present focus and cloud decision-making.
- The amygdala reacts to fear and stress, disrupting logical thinking needed for optimal performance.
Mood Influences Decisions
- Emotions strongly influence decisions, often leading to reactive or regrettable actions depending on mood.
- Being in a happy mood encourages more forgiving decisions, while anger leads to impulsive, negative responses.
