Teddy Totimeh and the leadership within (the brain)

Teddy Totimeh is a neurosurgeon at University of Ghana Medical Center In this episode we talk about the need to be global in a scientific career, how hard is to conceptualize rationally what is the brain and its power and our responsibility to use its full capacity to make the world a better place. I really enjoyed talking to Teddy and I hope you will enjoy the conversation too Key take aways Books help develop a global outlook from primary school even if in Ghana every generation will have their challenges but that is why we have this incredible computer in our head, to solve challenges, not to live like worms We have so many redundant areas in our brain that we dont use, that I dont think we need to modify the brain In an environment in which hard things are rewarded, people will do hard things. In a country that spends 70% of its GDP to pay debt, it is impossible to reward hard work To start change, we have to be leaders of ourselves, once being exposed to something better, to promote change, we have first to leaders of ourselves, convince ourselves that we can do better.
