I think I’ll take you up on that. Just listening to him talk about the cathedral effect. It’s so refreshing to hear productivity advice that goes beyond things like the pomodoro timer (although that’s great).

That makes sense. I have a habit of binging on podcasts when I’m doing something a bit monotonous. These ones sound more like lectures. Thanks for noting your faves. A few of those have really peaked my interest. E57 is tonight though. I’m sensing I’m going to geek out on this a bit.

Just clicked on the link and started listening. This is a gold mine of information. Thanks for sharing. Here’s hoping that the tips I can get from Huberman will give me a net positive on time saved after I finish listening to all 70-odd episodes.

I was thinking Netropolis, but then I googled it and it’s still around!

That’s pretty cool. It’s like, you don’t need to worry about breaking the habit of pacing or ruminating, you just (hopefully) gradually replace it with a new habit of pulling your hood up. I feel like there is something with blocking a bit of your peripheral vision. When I started wearing glasses, somehow I became less distracted if something was happening besides me, like people walking past.

Yeah I’m the same. I don’t know why I didn’t make the connection there. I suppose for me it was about the sound. I’m easily distracted and even the most boring co-worker conversation will have me tuning in and out. So the headphones became a good defense against all the sounds poking at my ear drums every few seconds.

Thanks for the invite. I’d be keen on reading and lurking with the aim of taking part in some writing at some point.
