Celebrate Every Achievement
In her book My Stroke of Insight, the author and Harvard brain scientist Jill Bolte Taylor documents her remarkable story. At the age of 37 years old, she suffered a stroke and then spent the next eight years making a full recovery. This involved learning to do the basics such as sit up in bed alone again, walk, talk, feed herself, drive, recall her memories, etc. The book is inspirational and also has some amazing pearls of wisdom. One of these pearls is how important it was for her to celebrate EVERY achievement no matter what the size. I found this attitude a wonderful one and would love all adults with ADHD to adopt too. She didn't say, "Oh, you can sit up on your own now, big deal, you could do that when you were one years old." That would have been discouraging after all her mental and physical effort it had taken. It would have als

Friend or Foe the Importance of Creating Great First Impressions
We often refer to the brain as having two hemispheres: the left, largely responsible for logic, and the right, predominately responsible for creativity. This description fits what we know to be the cortex or new brain; however, there is a third dimension, the hypo-thalamus or pre-historic brain, which is in fact the brain stem and is solely responsible for instincts.

Open Minds and Goal Setting
I was taught 25 years ago that a pure scientist has the most open of minds. The reason being quite simple in that unless you’ve conducted an experiment and developed proof one way or the other, how do you know it to be true or not. I was also informed by a scientist that I met on an airplane many moons ago that unless it gets funded it probably won’t be explored. But that’s another story.

See It Happen
As you become aware of the invisibility of creation, you can become a scientist to understand how to make yourself more aware of your creative abilities. It’s now time to pay real attention to the world; it’s alive. In other words, science says, you use knowledge and experience to build a larger, more expanded model of thought for greater experiences in life. You question what if? What are the possibilities? How can I do that better or differently? How do I make miracles happen? What does it take to make the extraordinary, common in our lives? This is an internal reality that science explains through the process of brain function.

Why Change Is So Hard
A single human brain is estimated to have the switching capacity of the entire U.S. telephone network.It can hold up to 100 trillion bits of information, dwarfing the capacity of any computer ever developed yet. But the brain can act as a prison unless we learn how to control it. The brain can, and often does, lick us into automatic perceptions and behaviors that are inaccurate, ineffective, or downright destructive. How the human brain works is worth noting if we want to change.

Sales Best Practices - Not
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see the difference between company A and B. And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to implement the process either. But it does take more than a 60 day commitment to the new process. When it's been broken for a decade it doesn't get fixed in a calendar quarter.

(Guest Post) Why Optimization Matters: Moving Beyond Price Driven Auctions
By Dr. Olga Raskina, Lead Scientist, Emptoris This article is the first in a three-part series of guest articles on optimization by Dr. Olga Raskina, Lead Scientist, with Emptoris, the supply and contract management solutions provider. As the Lead Scientist for Emptoris and someone who spends a great deal of time focusing on the impact optimization technologies can have on business processes and businesses, I am often asked “Why Optimization Matters?” Optimization sometimes sounds like a difficult topic, even though the idea and technology are meant to make processes and decisions easier – and more efficient.

It's in the Brain - leadership and social issues
It is now fairly well accepted that the brain has three quite clear areas from which to control our behaviour – the area closest to the brain stem (sometimes called ‘the reptilian brain”), the limbic area (sometimes called “the mammalian brain”), and the cortical area (sometimes called “the human brain”. There is hard data that shows where teachers engage with students, the students become more responsive to learning and they don’t want to “let the teacher down”. In turn this has an impact by reducing antisocial behaviour in the community around the school. There is also hard data that shows where employees are engaged with their work and with their co-workers, there is significant reduction in lateness, absenteeism, sickness, and abuse of trust.

Nurturing Nature-Does Your Brain Need a Workout?
Millions of brain cells die every day. If you are not replacing them with new healthy cells your brain will atrophy like any other muscle. Learn how to grow new brain cells and keep your brain healthy.

How the Economy Affects Your Brain
It’s a well known fact among the Mental Science community that chronic stress can actually alter brain anatomy. Stress (depression, fear, etc.) may cause specific areas of the brain to shrink in size. As the brain areas shrink, their functions (brain chemical secretions and electrical impulses) are altered. This anatomical adaptation to stress will ultimately affect how a person thinks, behaves, and reasons. In other words, changes in the brain due to stress, makes us less able to think of logical solutions to our problems. In addition to the irrational problem solving capacity produced by stress, the actual brain cells will change according to your thoughts.

Health Habits: Supplement Your Brain
Guess what! Your brain does not operate on its own… it’s attached to the rest of you. If you keep your body healthy, your brain will be healthier too, and you will be giving your brain a better chance to help you stay smarter and live a longer life of abundance and vitality....
