Moment 177: You're NOT Lazy! This Is The REAL Reason You Procrastinate: The Performance Doctor
Friday, August 30, 2024 β’ Duration 12:29
According to Adam, procrastination is a natural part of the creative process, and rather than a method of avoiding hard work, it is a defence mechanism. Procrastination can be a method of protecting yourself against what you find to be psychologically challenging, or a way to avoid negative emotional feelings such as confusion, boredom, anxiety and fear. In order to beat procrastination, Adam says that you need to identify what negative emotions are stirred up by tasks that you consistently put off. Once you have identified these you can then change them by reframing them into a more interesting challenge.

Moment 143: This Is Why You Can't Lose Weight: Daniel Lieberman
Friday, January 5, 2024 β’ Duration 12:56
In this moment, Harvard University professor and best-selling author, Daniel Lieberman, busts some of the most common myths around exercise. For 2 of the biggest myths, Daniel says that they are too simplistic, saying that you must sleep 8 hours a night or that sitting is terrible for your health. Instead, he says that most people do better with 7 hours of sleep a night, (but this can change depending on age and health) also, sitting isnβt bad for you if you mix it up with regular interruptions. Daniel also helps to clear up the debate that exercise does nothing for weight loss. He says the problem is actually that the recommended 150 minutes per week of exercise is not nearly enough, but higher levels of exercise lead to sustained weight loss and prevents regaining weight after losing it. In reality he claim that most of the truth about diet and exercise is more complex than we are led to believe.

Moment 142: These Daily Habits Are Slowly Hurting Your Lifespan: Peter Attia
Friday, December 29, 2023 β’ Duration 18:01
In this moment, longevity expert and author of βOutlive: The Science and Art of Longevityβ, Dr Peter Attia discusses βMedicine 3.0β.
Most people in todayβs world will die from lifestyle diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and cancer. In fact, Dr Attia says that our life expectancy hasnβt greatly increased since the 1800s, medicine just means we donβt die from infectious diseases.
To live longer and better in our later years, Dr Attia says that we need a new playbook, or what he calls βMedicine 3.0β. This relies on taking preventative steps very early in life, as the risk of lifestyle diseases compound throughout our life. Dr Attia argues that while doctors practising traditional medicine are very aware of the risk of doing certain treatments, but often ignore the cost of not taking action to prevent future problems.
Dr Attia believes that too often we worry about our health too late in life, when the problems start and the risk of taking action is higher. Instead, he argues, that if we take action when we are younger we have so much potential to change the trajectory of our lives. He says that we should start worrying about our future health now, and should think about it the same way as we think about saving for retirement, if we invest now we will thank ourselves later.
