EP 165: Living a Fulfilled Life and Realising Our True Potential - Kasper van de Meulen
Better focus, better results, and better learning
Kasper van der Meulen is an author and lifestyle adventurer. I'd describe Kasper as a practical productivity scientist. He went from being overweight, burned out, and unhappy, to being extraordinarily fit, running ultra marathons in bare feet, and writing an Amazon bestseller. After numerous experiments and challenges, he optimised his lifestyle. Kasper shares what he has discovered and implemented to get his mojo working.
Here's what we discuss in this week's show:

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
― Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967

Here's what we discuss in this week's show:
- When people ask Kasper what he does, how does he like to reply?
- Are we utilising all of our human potential?
- How did it feel for you to be completely burned out, and how dark did it get?
- How you broke the loop to begin the journey of optimising your potential.
- Changing your perspective by thinking about what you can do to be of service to others.
- What does it feel like to be mentally unfit?
- What do you do on any given day when you want to focus?
- What can we do to increase the cognitive performance of our brain?
- It’s believed that you can't focus without distraction. It's contrary to most assumptions, how does that work?
- The doctor said Kasper was “normal”, but that is not the same as healthy. What does that mean?
- The data that says that checking emails whilst doing other cognitive work lowers our IQ by 10 points, what’s the science behind that?
- Kasper wrote an Amazon bestseller in 30 days. How much of that experience was mental and how much was it actual skill and ability?
- Did you consider yourself a writer before you took on the book challenge?
- The Pomodoro technique for greater focus and efficiency.
- Move your location or space to minimise distraction and improve focus and attention.
- How do you use gaming music in your work day to improve your focus?
- Is laser beam focus the same as concentration?
- How do you curate your social feeds?
- Kasper’s rituals in the morning or at night?
