📣 New Quest in the Classroom 🥳 - Thinking Outside the Brain
I've just dropped a new Quest in the Career Readiness Journey: Thinking Outside the Brain.
The cognitive skills nobody teaches you. Annie Murphy Paul (the renowned science writer) makes a research-backed case that the smartest thinking doesn't happen inside your head. It happens when you use your body, your surroundings, and your relationships as extensions of your mind.
You'll come away knowing how to:
  • Use your body as a thinking tool (interoception, gesture, movement)
  • Design your surroundings deliberately to support different kinds of cognitive work
  • Build "groupiness" in any team you lead or join
  • Tell the difference between cognition-draining and cognition-restoring breaks
I'm really excited about this quest because it's more about how to replenish your brain's energy when it's exhausted, how to communicate in ways that will help people remember what you've said, and how to get the most out of a group. This Quest is going to be helpful whether you're working, in school, or just trying to get through you own day.
This Quest officially opens the Career Readiness Journey. More career and workplace content will arrive every week or so from here on.
Founders, you have full access through your lifetime VIP. Going forward, this Quest is Premium-tier for new members.
Try a Waypoint or two, then come back and comment. What will you do differently?
