Um, but it's really interesting how in powerlifting you're trying to cause neural adaptation by having certain driving signals and you're trying to engineer neuroplasticity through all sorts of supplements. Um, and you know, you have all sorts of, you know, brain derived neurotrophic factors that get secreted when you, when you lift.

So it's funny to me how I was trying to engineer, uh, um, um, neural adaptation in my, uh, nervous system more broadly, not just my brain, while learning mathematics. I think you can learn much faster if you convince yourself to care a lot about what you're learning and you have some sort of assistance, let's say caffeine or some cholinergic supplement to increase neuroplasticity.

I should chat with Andrew Huberman at some point. He's the expert. But yeah, at least to me, it's like you know, you can try to input more tokens into your brain, if you will, and you can try to increase the learning rate so that you can learn much faster on a shorter timescale. So I've learned a lot of things. I followed my curiosity.

You're naturally, if you're passionate about what you're doing, you're going to learn faster. You're going to become smarter faster. And if you follow your curiosity, you're always going to be interested. And so I advise people to follow their curiosity and don't respect the boundaries of certain fields or what you've been allocated in terms of lane of what you're working on.

Just go out and explore. and follow your nose and try to acquire and compress as much information as you can into your brain. Anything that you find interesting. And caring about a thing. And like you said, which is interesting, it does, it works for me really well.

Yep.

Yep.

Yep.

Right. And so at least part of my character as Beth Jesus is kind of like... Yeah, the hype man. Yeah, but I'm like hyping myself up, but then I just tweet about it. And it's just when I'm trying to get really hyped up and like an altered state of consciousness where I'm like... ultra-focused, in the flow, wired, trying to invent something that's never existed.

I need to get to unreal levels of excitement. But your brain has these levels of That you can unlock with like higher levels of adrenaline and whatnot. And I mean, I've learned that in powerlifting that actually you can engineer a mental switch to like increase your strength, right? Like if you can engineer a switch, maybe you have a prompt, like a certain song or some music where...
