The Myth of Being Busy (and Other Fairy Tales for Adults)

It Wasn’t Complicated… Until My Brain Got Involved
The brain is simple—its job is to keep you alive: eat, stay safe, belong, and find meaning. But humans complicate it with overthinking, gadgets, endless choices, and Instagram comparisons.

“The Invisible Script: How Your Subconscious Runs the Show”
Most of us think we’re in charge of our lives, but 90% of what we do is run by the subconscious mind — the quiet boss behind the scenes. It’s the reason you can drive while daydreaming and the reason you keep falling for the same old habits.
