A memory tactic.

Oh, to improve our working memory.

Yeah, I think there's all sorts of fun things we can be doing and puzzles.

I think word searches are great, crossword puzzles, even just trying to memorize a phone number.

We don't do that anymore.

Our brain is just not adjusted to that anymore.

Instead of having everything in your contacts, try to memorize a number or something, learn something new.

Our brain grows when there's novelty and repetition of connections.

So that's what we have to really focus on.

Totally lost scale.

And it's, and it's not that we're adjusting to it.

It's that our brain is just, it's not evolved.

Our brain isn't evolved to function like this and we have to get it back.

And that's why so many of us feel so depleted and exhausted and overwhelmed.

Even with all the tools, even with all the efficiency tools, like we're just, we're in it.

We're in a bad place.

We're the loneliest generation ever, even though we're the most connected.

There's just so many things.

Oh, I like that.

Yeah.
