Andrew Huberman once said: "The brain is like a muscle. If you don't use it, you lose it." A few years ago, I could barely focus for 2 minutes. Today, 12-hour workdays feel effortless.

"The brain is like a muscle. If you don't use it, you lose it."
A few years ago, I could barely focus for 2 minutes.
Today, 12-hour workdays feel effortless.
Here are Huberman's 7 principles for superhuman focus that changed my life:
1. Preperation
It's difficult to just switch into full focus mode.
You need to prime your brain before it.
According to Huberman the BEST way to do so is by staring at one point intensively.
Do this for 30 seconds before you start your work sessions.
Instant focus boost.
2. Meditation
Now don't get mad.
Meditation is such an EFFECTIVE way to not just improve your focus for the long term…
3. Work on something you like
I always struggled to focus in school.
Why? I simply didn't care about the shit they teach you there.
But working on my business?
It's a lot easier to stay focused because I see the actual value in doing so.
Find the 'Why'.
4. Sleep
You sleep ⅓ of your life.
So you better optimize it.
Good rest at night, peak focus at day.
It's not cool to sleep 4h a night to ‘grind’.
I sleep 8h - and produce results like crazy.
And most importantly, I'm healthier.
Two underrated ways to improve your sleep:
I. Mouth tape
Crazy underrated.
You're supposed to breathe through your nose.
And even if you do so during the day…
Most likely you aren't doing it when asleep.
But with a mouth tape you do.
Your sleep will improve significantly.
AND you'll fix your facial bone structure.
II. Magnesium
A Magnesium supplement is powerful.
Take it about an hour before you go to bed…
And trust me, you'll sleep like a stone.
Simple but mad effective
5. Frequencies
Go to Spotify or whatever you use.
Type in ‘40hz beats’, grab some earphones, and kick off your work session.
It might not be something for everyone.
6. Intermittent fasting
Delay your breakfast for a couple of hours and you'll literally 10x your focus in that time.
Only drink water and coffee.
Perfect to work.
But if you absolutely HAVE to eat…
Then make sure it's low on carbs and you don't overeat yourself.
7. The Ultimate Supplement
If you want to bring your focus to a whole new level…
Then go get Lion's Mane.
And no, it's not some psychedelic mushroom.
But I do have to mention, it works so well that you might end up forgetting everything around you.
Use it carefully.
