The other one is exhaust the body, tame the mind.

I believe most people have to take medication or self-medicate or do whatever they can to try to be focused because they don't get their body moving.

I got this concept from an old Stoic quote that said that we treat the body rigorously so that it won't be disobedient to the mind.

As somebody who suffers with ADHD, I have to move my body every day.

Like I work out first thing in the morning.

And when I work out, I push to the point past pain because there's something that happens in that pump.

It actually clears my brain.

It's the weirdest thing.

It's almost like a chiropractic alignment of my mind at the gym.

Most people go like, oh, I'm going to be so tired after the gym.

Opposite.

It's the funniest thing.

It's like I've never left the gym feeling tired more so than how I felt going in.

I like to put my most difficult tasks right after the gym, my most creative tasks like this right after the gym.

Why?

because that's when it's gonna get my best work.

My mind is primed after I work out because I exhaust the body, tame the mind.

And your gym could be as simple as putting a weighted vest and going for a walk.

It could be as simple as doing 100 air squats.

It doesn't have to be complicated.
