My Lovely Lizard Brain

I love how Seth Godin comes up with name for everything which makes it super easy to remember. Though Seth didn’t come up with “lizard brain” terminology but he has huge stake in popularizing it.

Reason for bringing up Lizard Brain to conversations is how clear it become day by day.

Stop us from writing the blog idea we always to do

Making sure that we stay in bed more than required instead of going for run.

Procrastinate about the new idea which you got during office commute.

If listening to lizard brain is new to you then your mind creates sparks informing that you are not doing what you are supposed to do. But if you are veteran like me then you don’t feel any discomfort you just find great reasons for not doing work that matters.

Though I don’t have any clear solution for turning off lizard brain but recently trying out some hacks around this.

1 — Make Strong Support System — If you wanted to run every morning make sure you have all required running gears ready(shoes,fixing a flexible timing) so that reason for not doing get reduced.

2 — If possible find like minded groups. Share you learning’s with community.

These are few methods works for me. Love to hear if you have used any technique to shut the lizard brain?
