A Guide to Mindful Energy Consumption
from The Motivated Mind · host Scott Lynch
Michael Brandt, Founder of Ketone-IQ, operates at a fast and intense pace. He cruises through marathons at a cool 6-minute mile pace, meticulously tracking his performance and energy consumption. It's no surprise, considering Michael majored in computer science and product design at Stanford, scoring in the 99th percentile on his GMAT. Just like the speed of his mile pace, he decided to skip business school and go straight into entrepreneurship, creating an entirely new category of ketone shots that have revolutionized elite sports and high-end workplaces. Quickly scaling the business to multi-million dollars in revenue, including a $6MM contract with the US Department of Defense, it's no wonder Michael is so thoughtful about his energy consumption. In this episode, we discuss how video games can enhance our strategic thinking skills and improve resource allocation, the art of designing our life, the importance of finding meaning in our work, and how to channel our addictions into healthy pursuits.
