Crazy Busy Disables the Brain
- Being "crazy busy" impairs our ability to effectively handle tasks and stresses.
- Stress activates brain areas linked to anger and anxiety while weakening judgment and impulse control.

- Design your life to reduce mental load and focus fully on urgent issues to stay calm and effective.
