Mind As Energy: E0-Welcome to Mind As Energy

from Leo Trujillo · host Leonardo Trujillo

Strategy decides your advantage. Energy decides whether you can sustain it.We just closed 33 episodes of Mind as Strategy. But strategy has a hard limit: if your biological battery is dead, the best map in the world won’t save you. In this pilot episode of our new 33-part series, Mind As Energy, we move from tactics to physiology. From maneuvers to metabolism.Through the brutal history of the 1911 race to the South Pole, we see why Robert Falcon Scott’s reliance on raw willpower led to tragedy, while Roald Amundsen’s strict energy management won the day. Forged from over 14 years of heavy physical training and grounded in hard science, this series strips away the "wellness fluff." We are diving into the neurobiology, endocrinology, and behavioral psychology of high performance.You will learn the four-part framework we will rebuild over the next 33 episodes:⚙️ Circuit One: The Biological Engine — The hardware. Circadian infrastructure, sleep architecture, and metabolic output.🛑 Circuit Two: Closing the Leaks — The software. Patching the invisible drain of allostatic load and autonomic nervous system fatigue.🧠 Circuit Three: The Focus Multiplier — The processor. Beating cognitive load and attention residue to turn focus into a laser.🧭 Circuit Four: Energy with Trajectory — The navigation. The neurobiology of dopamine, drive, and the myth of willpower.Productivity advice tells you to manage time. But time is fixed. You can only manage your capacity within it. You cannot out-will a dead battery.Welcome to your new operating system.Next episode: Episode 1 — Energy Is the First Currency. We diagnose the modern exhaustion trap and take the first step to reclaim the grid.Stay grounded.Stay aligned.Stay powerful.

Patti Talks Too Much Patti Hi. I'm Patti and it's been said - many times - that I talk too much. I'm a teacher, author, nature lover and for ten years I owned a coffeehouse cafe where my faith in the goodness of humans was restored every day. This podcast highlights the awesomeness of humanity - er...outside the warmongers, globalists, tyrants and politicians in general. You know, the rest of us weird, quirky and sometimes hilarious humans.We'll talk woo, probe mysteries and leave you thinking about something more interesting or entertaining or uplifting than your grocery list, or boss or that oil change your car needs. I talk too much because I can't help my Gemini moon and Leo Rising nature. I do a podcast because it's cheaper, funnier and more productive than therapy.  Dr. Decision & Coach Dennis McCurdy & Dr. Leo Polizoti Down-to-earth, honest, and usable insights, suggestions, and techniques to improve your life and decisions. Decisions set the stage for what you do and don’t do. Everything is a decision, even a decision not to make a decision is a decision.  Literature of the last century hezhongjian literaturePersonal Recollections of Joan of Arc, Volumes 1 & 2 By: Mark Twain (1835-1910)Zadig, or the Book of Fate By: Voltaire (1694-1778)A Brief History of English and American Literature By: Henry A.
