So, What Did Your Brain Learn? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I promised to see you in seven days even though I couldn’t make it; well, here I am.Some of you did the experiment. Some of you read the last article, nodded seriously, said, “This is exactly what I need,” and then opened Instagram to check how many people liked the post you just shared about not opening Instagram.Lol.No judgement because that is also data.The purpose of this article is simple. I want to help you read what the week told you, because most people do the experiment and then throw a
Your Phone is not to blame (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I love bean cakes. At a go, I could eat 10.If you put a plate of freshly fried akara in front of me when I am hungry, I will eat one, enjoy it, and reach for another, and before long I will be looking at an empty plate wondering where everything went.Now imagine someone tells me, “You need more discipline.

What am I doing wrong?”After almost ten years working with people on personal growth, I can tell you this is one of the most misunderstood parts of the field: information is not the same as transformation.Everyone has access to the same podcasts, the same books, the same frameworks. But two people can consume identical material and end up in complete
Did you do the task? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I want you to be honest with yourself before you read another word. Did you pick up that book? Did you sit with it, one page at a time, on at least most of the days since my last letter reached you? Or did you read the instruction, nod at it with good intentions, and then set it aside for a tomorrow that kept rearranging itself?If you did it, I want you to stay with me, because what I am about to tell you will make sense of everything.If you did not do it, I still want you to stay with me, becau
