Notes from my stream of consciousness writing #112
- Yesterday I listened to two podcasts by Huberman during my Day 2 of walking 20,000 steps. Let's review what I learned.
- Music changes the frequency of your brain. It affects your emotions and mood. Listening to novel music is good for you. When you're sad, listening to slow, sad songs for 13 minutes helps. If you want to feel happier, listen to 9 minutes of generally fast songs. Music boosts motivation. Music boosts focus and learning if you listen during breaks. Silence or white noise, brown noise, or 40 Hz binaural beats are the best for focusing.
- Always praise effort, not innate ability. Praising effort enhances performance, and praising innate ability does the opposite.
