Why Feedback is critical for you (and me)

Author: Sean D'Souza

Ronald was a good friend of mine. And Anita was his girlfriend. Well, not any longer. She was now his ex-girlfriend. They’d split up. And I got asked for my feedback: “So, what did you think of her, anyway?” Well, I told him what I thought about her. Did you ever get the feeling of […]

The Science of Making Mistakes

Author: Sean D'Souza

That may seem to you, to be the silliest headline ever. Why would you need to learn how to make mistakes? You’re already a pro at making mistakes. You don’t need a how-to article to tell you how to make mistakes, right? But bear with me as we explore why mistake making is a science. […]

Understanding How Tiredness and Self-Control Are Mistaken for Resistance

Author: Sean D'Souza

I noticed something very unusual when I went for my 7 km walk. I noticed that as I passed the liquor store, my brain would start to wander. And it wasn’t the liquor. It was just the point in my walk. You see I’d pass the liquor store at about 40 minutes into my walk. […]

The Curse Of Knowledge

Author: Sean D'Souza

We have the curse of knowledge. We all do. We know what we know, and we know it so well, that we assume that everyone else knows it just as we do. So for instance, I understand a concept like ‘uniqueness’ and it’s almost second nature for me, so it’s normal for me to assume […]

Why We Struggle With Learning New Skills

Author: Sean D'Souza

There are two ways to learn something You learn it. OR you unlearn and then learn. As you’d have worked out, the second way is a lot harder. To learn means to have little or no fear To unlearn means to erase the fear, and then put in confidence. This requires twice the effort and […]

Why You Lose Focus—And How “Brain Maps” Play Their Role

Author: Sean D'Souza

I remember sitting in a queue at JFK airport in New York waiting to take off As I sat in the plane, I could see our plane stuck behind about six or eight other planes.
 They were all waiting to take off. And as we waited the weather conditions changed, causing the planes to keep […]

Why Processing Time Is Critical For Consumption

Author: Sean D'Souza

Do you remember what you’ve learned? Or are you a Sponge Bob? Soak a sponge with water. It will absorb all the water willingly.
 And as you pick it up, the soaked sponge will drip.
 A good chunk of the water will drippity-drip all over you if you’re not careful. But let’s say you are […]

The Simplest Benchmark of Success

Author: Sean D'Souza

Two people There are two kinds of people on the planet. Those who make excuses. And those who don’t. The ones who make excuses don’t start that way No one is ‘born talented’ at making excuses. But over the years they learn to get out of things. They learn how to blame the weather, their […]

How To Fight Customer Perceptions (And Win)

Author: Sean D'Souza

Are too! Are not! Are too! Are not! Are too! You’ve played this game as a child. And no matter which side you were on, you simply stuck to your position, without budging an inch. So how do you win the battle of perception? You do what Grizz Wylie does. Grizz, a well-known coach for […]

The Power Of Enough

Author: Sean D'Souza

Imagine I asked you a question. A simple question where you could choose the answer. And if you chose the right answer, you’d end up with about $20,000 more per annum (theoretically, of course) Imagine that. You’d have twenty thousand more buckeroos in the bank. But instead–strangely–you’ll choose to forfeit the $20,000. How could this […]
