Episode notes
Autophagy As A Mental Reset
- Fasting triggers autophagy which forces the body to discard what isn't essential and resets priorities.
- Mike Walker frames autophagy as a model for cleaning mental and behavioral clutter to prepare for focused work.
Run Short Experiments To Break Dopamine Loops
- Run controlled experiments to break dopamine loops, e.g., seven days of not checking comments or 24 hours replacing social media with reading.
- Tie existing triggers (hunger, urge to scroll) to productive replacements like vision work, prayer, or walks to form new habits.
Use Time Compression For Rapid Execution
- Compress goals into short, immovable windows and treat movable timelines as mere targets.
- Ask "How can I finish this in 30 days?" to force constraint-driven execution and rapid progress.
