[01:32] Treating yourself as a high-value asset:
- The importance of treating oneself as a valuable asset, like a million-dollar racehorse or football player.
- This includes taking care of physical health through proper nutrition, exercise, and addressing any lingering health issues like back pain.
- Just as a top athlete would maintain peak physical condition for optimal performance, you should prioritize your well-being to maximize productivity and focus.
[03:10] Nutrition and its impact on focus:
- Dietary choices, particularly in the morning, can affect focus and productivity.
- Avoiding high-carb foods that lead to sugar spikes and crashes is recommended, as they can disrupt concentration.
- Instead, opting for fatty or protein-rich breakfast options to sustain energy levels and maintain focus throughout the morning.
[05:20] Managing attention as a finite resource:
- Recognize attention as a limited resource, unlike abundance and success, which are infinite.
- This means being selective about where attention is directed, prioritizing tasks that require focus and avoiding distractions.
- Doing things unrelated to work during work time, like long phone calls, can be distracting and cause problems.
- Sharing personal examples, Igor talks about not answering calls during focused work hours, to illustrate this point.
