I started doing research on this a few weeks back, when I came across Sam Harris 's book on Free Will while working on a video on meditation. There were several ways I could have explained this, but I was trying to avoid recycling commonly used examples, so this could have ended up even longer. I'm hoping this promotes self-awareness rather than just inducing existential crisises.

What I've Learned This is about connecting the dots, making conclusions and weighing that against modern dogma. Lately I'm focusing a lot on health since it's so important yet there's so much conflicting information about it; I am also keen on enhancing productivity, enhancing cognitive capability and general self improvement. My general goal is for each video to provide some takeaway that's applicable in your daily life.
