It’s been great to hear about how he’s shaping his fulfillment process! Here is the latest update since the events of his last post. Firstly I want to announce that the first A4 Emergent Task Planner pads have been dispatched from Germany. We received the first print run last week and have so far dispatched 13 orders, and we are now getting a system together to make sure that we can get orders invoiced and dispatched as quickly as possible. If you signed up on our pre-order form you should have now received an email with the details that are needed to send you out an electronic invoice. If not then please check your sp...

In an experiment, participants observed others trying to solve a series of word puzzles. On video monitors, some observers viewed the group completing a word puzzle, others observed the group attempt but not complete the puzzle. A control group didn’t view any puzzle-solving at all. All observers were then asked to complete word puzzles of their own. Observers who watched the puzzles being completed were less successful with their own puzzles than those who saw the incomplete puzzles or the control group. The researchers called this phenomenon “vicarious goal fulfillment.” If we see someone else complete a task, we transfer that fulfillment to...

I thought for a while about all my friends that I had and tried to find out one who knew everything about me. Surprisingly, in a group of very close friends there was no one who knew everything about me. None of them knew anything about how I felt at home and how desperately I wanted to grow up and much more. And few who knew.. never understood it thoroughly. After brief rumination, I realized that I was my own Best Friend as only I knew about my life completely. Hence, I wrote about myself and got a zero as my teacher thought I wrote the essay on ‘Myself’ a...

Jonathan Swift once said; “There are only few who live today, most of us live tomorrow”. I have mostly lived in tomorrow, always looking forward, aiming for my goals. Many times I have let my happiness and well being today slide so that I can produce results that will benefit me in the future. Find Balance I wrote about this in depth in an earlier post here at Pick The Brain: How to find Balance in Life but I want to mention it here since it is an important subject. If you cannot balance your needs of today with the needs of tomorrow you will not be able to focus 100% on your goals and you won’t be able to continuously produce high quality results. How I try to Increase “daily living” As I said I have had a lot of problems focus...

But in life, ignorance is bliss, and so is apathy towards purpose, according to an Austrian study that showed 35% of subjects were indifferent about their purpose, and quite happy with that state of affairs. But like ignorance, indifference is hard to get if you don’t have it already, so what are the rest of us supposed to do? The study says get married and get employed; Oliver Burkeman says to stop envying the happiness of people who just do...

I moved out, went to college, found a good job, and bought a house. I did everything I was expected to do. I worked long hours, chasing promotions and raises I didn’t care about. I dutifully planted myself in front of the television in the rare moments I was home, and filled my existence with all the normal stuff of modern life—debt, clutter and stress. I just wanted my parents to be proud of me. So I chased what I had been told success looked like. Instead of finding what I was searching for, I discovered a constant stream of excess—too much work, too much stress, too much stuff—and I was drowning in it. In the stillness of the night, blanketed by ...

I’ve done considerable research on my interests and passions as well as possible career options, which take advantage of the intersection of these areas.  I’ve read numerous books on these subjects, seen documentaries and lectures on the topics, and sought out a variety of mentors and a number of individuals in my own career search a...

The muted physician cameos of “The Decision Tree” stand in stark contrast to Groopman’s Harvard-trained masters of the universe. (more…) *This blog post was originall...

Words make up your thoughts and ideas. They shape the images in your mind, coloring what you perceive and believe. In the world around you, words make up text messages, tweets, and on your Facebook page they explain your pictures, your past and your plans. They make up the laws that rule much of your experience. Yet all this being true, we seldom stop to think about the ongoing power of the words we use and string together, the empowerment of words at our disposal when used effectively, or the power unleashed against us at our peril when words are used without awareness. Our mind is the light we shine second by second on the words we choose from the infinite lexicon before us. It is critically i...
