Much thought and effort goes into how we expend our resources, whether they be financial, time, or physical; yet very little consideration goes into how we utilize our cognitive resources. COVID concerns and working-from-home challenges have only accelerated our rapid climate of information overload, constant distractions, and unpredictable change that lead to profound brain drain. A strategic shift in how we think is necessary. How can we optimize our mental energy? How can we better leverage our cognitive capital to be deeper, more innovative, agile thinkers? How we operate in our environment and drop the toxic habits can help us thrive and potentially protect against lost capacity.
