It isn’t just one skill being affected. The hippocampus stops encoding new memories. The prefrontal cortex nearly shuts down—planning grinds to a halt. And the anterior cingulate cortex goes dark, silencing critical thinking. But here’s the part that’s truly shocking:

But here's what Sapolsky said matters most: Chronic stress shuts down the part of your brain that feels empathy — the anterior cingulate cortex. You become less tolerant. Less generous. More selfish. Stressed people aren't bad people. They're depleted people.

The greatest rewards lie in your efforts. Rewire your brain to enjoy the hard things. It can even grow a part of your brain called the Anterior Mid-Cingulate Cortex. A dose of discomfort is one of the best things you can do for yourself.

The mind is a powerful place and what you feed it can affect you in a powerful way How tobi lutke got over his fear of public speaking: “I was terrified of public speaking until I sat down for like a week and every day I spent ten minutes just writing that I like public speaking.” “ If you tell yourself or write something down 100 times about yourself, that writes it into the prefrontal cortex at such a deep level that your brain will start reconciling you to that.” “It’s not a placebo. You actively change your prefrontal cortex.”

Dr. Andrew Huberman & David Goggins broke down the anterior mid-cingulate cortex—the brain's "no-days-off" structure that grows when you push through resistance and shrinks when you quit. Huberman: It lights up when you do what you don't want to do. It releases dopamine in response to friction. It learns. It has plasticity in both directions—build it constantly or watch it atrophy. Stimulation studies make people feel: "There's a storm coming... but I want to go through it." Goggins (raw, unfiltered): "I didn't know any of this science, but I built it. People call me crazy because they can't imagine doing it. The demons come when you realize what it actually takes. Most wake up to coffee, pancakes, and comfort. I wake up to work. No one wants that grind. That's why average is everywhere. You don't do the work, then at 80 you're empty inside. I have zero empty bones in my body." This is the science and soul of willpower: The brain rewards the fight. The ones who keep fighting become unbreakable. If you feel that pull to quit today—remember: Your anterior mid-cingulate cortex is waiting to grow. What's one hard thing you're pushing through right now? Drop it below. Let's inspire each other.

Your brain doesn't simply record reality - it interprets it. In this video, the Ferris wheel (the large rotating wheel seen at amusement parks) can appear to spin in two different directions even though the image never changes. This happens because the brain is a prediction machine. Your visual cortex receives the same visual information, but the prefrontal cortex helps decide how to interpret the motion. If you focus on one cabin and imagine it moving the opposite way, your brain can flip the direction of the wheel. Nothing in the video changes - only your brain's prediction does. This is how perception works: the world stays the same, but the brain's internal model can completely change what you experience. capiomind

Dr. Michael Nehls on Tucker Carlson: The mRNA spike protein shuts down new brain cell growth in the hippocampus — leading to depression, anxiety, and Alzheimer’s. NEHLS: “The spike protein produced by the mRNA that is injected… is doing just the opposite. The spike protein activates neuroinflammation in the brain… they shut down the hippocampus, they shut down the production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus.” “If it’s chronic… the consequences are depression, anxiety, and in the long run is Alzheimer’s.” “So they actually identified after the mRNA injections after a few months that the Alzheimer rate went up in a study published in South Korea… And I predicted this already in my book, the Indoctrinated Brain.” “Being human in my opinion means that you are able to produce these cells… if you shut down the production of new nerve cells in the hippocampus people lose essentially the ability to be human. They lose themselves. And the ultimate losing of oneself is having Alzheimer’s.”

Are you blind when it comes to occipital anatomy? This is a forgotten region, b/c vision isn’t considered eloquent. But it is still important to remember the anatomy! Here’s how, starting at the bottom —Lateral occipital gyrus It down at the bottom in the occipital lobe & lateral—simple one there! —Lingual gyrus It’s at the bottom and in the center, just like your tongue (lingual) is in the center of your mouth —Visual cortex Looks like two evil snake like eyes, staring at you from either side. So if you see eyes, it’s the visual cortex! —Parietal lobules Remember, Lobule and Lateral both start with L, so the lobules are lateral & stacked on each other —Cuneus and precuneus Remever, C is for central, so precuneus and cuneus are central in the midline! Hopefully, this post will back you up when it comes to the back of the brain anatomy!!

David Goggins & Andrew Huberman drop the rawest truth on willpower & purpose (5:57 clip): You don’t “find” purpose or willpower — you build it the hard way. Goggins: “There is no f... hack. The hack is going to f... suck. And do it… and do it… and do it.” Huberman: The anterior mid-cingulate cortex (the “willpower center”) only grows when you do things you hate doing. Lifting to failure, 4 straps, cold showers — if you like it, it doesn’t count. The “stick,” the “haunt,” the friction — that’s the gear that actually builds it. Goggins: “That’s why so many people fail to find their purpose. Because growing that part doesn’t look fun. It doesn’t look like my life looks fun.” Clip here — no sugar-coating, just brutal honesty 👇 Who’s actively doing something today that their brain is screaming “NO” to?

The monetization of youth sports has created a rush to “develop” athletes. Everyone’s chasing exposure, private lessons, and skill sessions…but skill is outpacing physical development. That’s where things start to break down. The body isn’t ready for the volume or intensity,

Another flyover of a major construction project at Giga Texas, this one Cortex 2.0 where AI training for the Optimus Robot (and possibly some FSD training) is taking lace. The plant is still partially operational with about half of the Megapacks & cooling systems installed while the second half is well under way to be completed later this summer/early fall. Once completed, I expect there to be about 260 Megapacks dedicated just for Cortex 2 operation, while there is already another 72 Megapacks in operation for Cortex 1, located on the south end of the main factory,. Cortex 2 is located just south of the new Optimus 10M/yr run rate factory which itself is under construction, so this is a convenient location for both her at Giga Texas!

🚨 THE INTERNET JUST WENT DARK 🚨 AWS went down and it dragged half the internet with it. GitHub. Slack. New Relic. Coinbase. Signal. Nearly all of the most important sites all offline at once. Engineers say “this service never goes down.” Until it did. This Amazon Web Services outage is one of the largest in history. What if this was a stress test to see how fast the web can collapse?

Elon Musk: The real breakthrough SpaceX is chasing isn’t hype — it’s full reusability. No one in history has ever built a fully reusable rocket, and that’s why access to space is still insanely expensive — We’ve already landed Falcon 9 boosters over 500 times, but we still throw away the upper stage — and that alone costs as much as a small jet. Starship changes everything. When every part of a rocket comes back, space stops being exclusive and starts becoming scalable. Starship is the largest flying machine ever made — built for Mars, the Moon, and massive satellite deployment. But the real revolution isn’t where it goes… it’s that it comes back. Full reusability is the single biggest lever for lowering the cost of space in human history. Automation and AI matter — but without full reusability, space will always be expensive. Starship is designed to change the economics entirely. Prove full reusability, and the cost of reaching orbit drops by a factor of 100. That’s how Mars stops being a dream and starts being a plan.

David Goggins on the Huberman Lab podcast: “Every day I wake up and do the one thing I hate most in the world — running — like I love it. That’s where the willpower lives.” He explains why he still smoke-jumps into wildfires for months every year, losing millions in speaking fees: “If I just became a speaking monkey 12 months a year… I’d ruin the exact thing I worked my entire life to build.” The anterior mid-cingulate cortex (the brain’s willpower center) grows when you force yourself into discomfort you hate. Stop → it shrinks. Keep forcing it → it stays massive. “I go back to ground zero. No Goggins. No carry boats. Just David Goggins. Nobody. That’s where my growth is. That’s where my willpower comes from.” He deliberately caps external success to protect the internal strength that lets him look any man in the eye and speak truth without flinching. “That feeling is worth every dime I’ve ever made in my life.” This clip is from 2024, but the message never ages. What’s the one thing you hate doing… that you know you need to keep doing anyway to stay sharp?
