Summary

Performance enhancement shouldn’t only apply to top athletes. Its time we start enhancing the performance of desk-dwelling corporate warriors. Here is how its done. In this episode, Natalie and Ross discuss the various methods, rituals, supplements and substances that may or may not improve your work productivity. Whether by chugging espresso or counting 25 minute pomodoros, everyone can find simple hacks for a daily boost of focus. You’ll also hear a bunch of tricks that are inadvisable to add to your routine such as hiring high school coaches to yell at you at your desk or mix and matching various stimulants. Stay tuned for a story of a weird CEO who needs help with his morning routine, Ross’s love of smelling salts, and why you should never swear at AI.
