1
I don't know about you guys, but every once in a while, I'll just have a day where my brain is actually working well.
2
The gears of my mind are fully lubricated, fully torqued.
3
When I'm in a conversation with somebody, I don't have to search for the right words to say.
4
They kind of just bubble up to the surface, and I can sling them out of my mouth onto them.
5
Or if I'm reading a book, I'm actually able to comprehend what I'm reading.
6
I'm actually absorbing the material.
7
Or maybe I'm at a party, and I'm just a little bit more confident.
8
I have a bit more swagger in my step and I'm way more social than I usually am.
9
If you've had a similar experience you probably also know
10
that these moments are fewer and further in between than we would probably like.
11
It almost seems like once in a while the universe decides to zap us with this extra level of mental clarity.
12
It's like a glimpse of our potential.
13
It's a glimpse of how social or how confident or how clear-headed we could be if we did the right things.
14
And it was actually this very feeling that got me into self-improvement way back
15
when I was a teenager Way back when I was a teenager
16
and I was kind of frustrated
17
that I didn't feel like this all the time I wanted to get to the bottom of it.
18
How can I more consistently feel like there's not this brain fog?
19
How do I operate at my full potential more often?
20
Well, I'm happy to report
21
that I haven't figured it out I'm not gonna pretend like
22
I know the answer to living at your full potential every single day of the week weak
23
because I don't think that's actually possible.
24
It's a little bit of a fallacy of perfection, but I want to go over three things that have really helped me clear mental fog,
25
and it helps me operate closer to my mental potential than if I didn't do those things.
26
But right before we jump into these tips, a word from our, no, I'm just kidding, no sponsor.
27
That comes later.
28
I just want to say that if you haven't seen my video on how to stop being tired all the time,
29
I think that is a necessary precursor to this video because if you are doing things wrong in your sleep,
30
diet, and exercise, which are kind of your fundamentals to feeling well, then I don't think doing these additional tips will necessarily help you.
31
But if you do feel like you have a pretty good grasp on your sleep,
32
diet, and exercise, and you're still feeling mentally sluggish and brain foggy and your life's a mess, uh, then maybe these tips will help you.
33
So strategy number one is to practice something I like to call graduated stimulation.
34
From my experience a great deal of my lack of mental clarity is stimulation induced
35
when i do something that's overly stimulating like browsing social media for hours and hours
36
or i get into a youtube rabbit hole just binging videos
37
all day long i sort of start to develop a brain
38
fog it might be a result of kind of turning your rational brain off for a
39
while and just indulging in this primal existence where you're just injecting yourself with dopamine and stimulation like you're a fiend.
40
And this is a problem
41
because I feel like a lot of us have a habit of doing our internet rounds first thing in the morning.
42
We check Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, YouTube.
43
We kind of just see what's new in the world.
44
It's sort of giving ourselves hits of stimulation before we've even done anything, before we've even fed ourselves, before we've cleaned ourselves up.
45
This makes it extremely difficult to hop into something more boring,
46
more slow-paced, like doing whatever your job is, writing an essay.
47
So a way to solve this problem is to practice graduated stimulation.
48
To organize your day in a way that sort of ramps up the stimulation as the day goes on.
49
So say whatever the most important thing you have to do in the day is like 1 out of 10 entertaining.
50
It's not very fun.
51
You're kind of dreading it you should do that thing as soon as possible.
52
When you first wake up, when you have that mental energy, before your brain is absolutely corroded, you should dive into that one out of 10,
53
not very fun thing first.
54
And then you can move on to things
55
that are gradually more entertaining as the day goes on
56
and as your willpower seems to sort of drain and your physical energy levels start to drain, et cetera.
57
So with this method, you're not really cutting out these internet rounds that everyone seems to do.
58
You don't have to stop really checking your social media, but you should postpone that until after you've done the most important things that you have to do on your to-do list.
59
That way it doesn't seem like there's such a huge entertainment disparity between your habitual pleasures
60
and the things that you actually have to do.
61
If you start from zero, then doing the not so fun thing is actually more fun than doing nothing a lot of the time.
62
Whereas if you're binging social media, which is like seven out of 10 fun, four out of 10 fun.
63
And then you try to do the less stimulating, boring thing.
64
It seems like you're missing out.
65
It's like, oh, this is dreadful.
66
I've never used that word in a video in my entire life.
67
Strategy number two is brain dumping.
68
One of the craziest things about the human mind is
69
that a bare minimum of 90% of all of our brain activity is subconscious.
70
And I say a bare minimum because there's a little bit of argument in the scientific realm about this.
71
Some scientists say that this number is as high as 99.9% of all of our mental function happens at the subconscious level,
72
which means that as we go about our day, everything that we're intaking, inputting, everything that we're smelling, we're seeing,
73
we're hearing is being processed behind the scenes, even though we may not be consciously aware of it.
74
This is extremely important when it comes to mental clarity because we really need to monitor what our subconscious knows.
75
Because even though we might not be paying attention to it, we still know about it and it still affects us and it leaks into every single thing that we do.
76
A great example of this is if you have a business meeting or something you're supposed to remember, maybe an errand or taxes you're supposed to fill out.
77
The more things that you have piling up that you need to do, even if you're not paying attention to it, The stress of these things is going to affect every aspect of your being.
78
By putting things off, by postponing things, by procrastinating things, we're pretty much delegating it to our subconscious to worry about.
79
And if we delegate too many things to our subconscious to worry about, it can often start to become way too much, and it starts to...
80
We start to become anxious and stressed and overloaded and brain foggy.
81
So I think a great way to deal with this problem
82
and make sure
83
that you greatly reduce the risk of this happening is by getting in the habit of doing something
84
that I like to call a brain dump.
85
Every single possible little thing, everything you have to do, everything you're responsible for, everything that you need to remember, you write down.
86
You have a giant document where you just let loose.
87
And it may seem counterproductive to have a giant mountainous list of things that you have to do.
88
You might feel like you will get overwhelmed with this.
89
In my experience, it's a lot less stressful to have this giant list than to have
90
that list in your head leaking into every single thing that you do throughout the day.
91
It's way better to have a physical copy of your anxieties than it is to keep it in your head.
92
And try to be as thorough as possible.
93
Just doing that will help you ease the burden off of your subconscious.
94
You're kind of just emptying your mind onto a piece of paper.
95
You're just clearing it of all the filth and just putting it somewhere that's outside of you.
96
Now, as constructive and relieving as that will inevitably be,
97
I'd highly recommend taking it a step further and then organizing your tasks according to the Eisenhower complex.
98
Now the Eisenhower complex is basically just a system for organizing the importance and urgency of your various tasks.
99
Things that are both important and urgent you should do first.
100
Things that are urgent and not so important you should find a way to delegate
101
or do kind of a little bit later
102
or at the end of the day when you don't need as much mental energy things that are not urgent, aka not time sensitive, but are still important,
103
you should find a way to plan for those things
104
and figure out a time where you can slowly chip away at it.
105
And things that are not urgent and not important, you just shouldn't do.
106
Anything that's on your brain dump that is neither urgent nor important, you should find a way to just rid yourself of the responsibility of doing that thing.
107
I cannot express to you how much mental clarity this will
108
give you just not having your subconscious overloaded with all of these tasks and responsibilities that you have to do,
109
and instead have them present on some sort of external organized template will free up your brain to work properly.
110
Now, the third thing I wanna touch on is something that's kind of beaten like a dead horse in the self-improvement community, but I have a few things to say about it,
111
and that is mindfulness.
112
Mindfulness is basically the act of training your brain to exist not in the hypothetical, but in the real.
113
You kind of bring your consciousness from outside of your head and all the busy, anxious, noisy thoughts that's going on in there,
114
inevitably, and you bring it into your body, into what's in front of you, what's tangible, the sights and the smells and the feelings all around you.
115
It really stops you from overthinking everything.
116
And as we've kind of gone over, this overthinking or hyper-cerebralization is kind of the main driver of brain fog.
117
And one really interesting thing about mindfulness is that although it is best practice to do it every single day, you don't really have to.
118
Once you start learning the mechanics of exiting your hyper-cerebralization and entering the present moment,
119
you start to view the world through a different lens, a more objective lens, one that kind of accepts reality as it is.
120
And this can change your viewpoint permanently.
121
If you find that you're someone who overthinks everything, you're prone to anxiety, you're prone to overthinking, mindfulness is kind of a no brainer.
122
So for like two weeks, just practice mindfulness for five minutes a day.
123
There's a million tutorials on YouTube as to how to do that, but I think it's kind of a no-brainer.
124
So to recap, practice graduated stimulation.
125
Figure out what the most important things that you need to do in the day are, and do those things first.
126
Postpone your social media binge as long as possible, and gradually ramp up the entertainment value of each activity that you have to do as the day goes on.
127
Secondly, practice brain dumping.
128
Take everything that's overloading your subconscious and put it onto a physical medium, a giant word document of every single thing that you have to do,
129
and then organize that brain dump into the Eisenhower complex.
130
Thirdly, practice mindfulness.
131
Learn how to exit the noise of your head, learn how to stop hyper-cerebralizing everything,
132
and enter the present moment where things are a lot more clear, simple, and calm.
133
If you do these three things, I would be shocked if they didn't work for you
134
because these three things were some of the most important things in giving me mental clarity on a more consistent basis.
135
And I really hope they work for you as well.
136
As a bonus, I highly recommend checking out the book Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, one of the great founding fathers of Stoicism,
137
a philosophy that has helped me tremendously in not just mental clarity, but in my whole life.
138
And I'm actually listening to that book for like the third time using today's video sponsor, Audible.
