I'm going to hang onto the wording of volume transmission.

It makes me think about an alternative hypothesis to the functions behind Cannabis causing HPPD, as the psychedelics typically responsible for that symptom are serotonergic.

GABA typically occurs in the CSF, and very small levels of GABA can activate extrasynaptic receptors.

How to beat procrastination?

07.00 Clear goals — goals that focus on the action, not the outcome. (Very specific)

See GTD on next-actions that make a distinction between outcomes (projects) and clear goals (Next-Actions)

"This keeps your brain from wondering, what is the first step?"

10.00 Challenge-skill balance. Find sweet spot where challenge is slightly more than your skill level. Too much challenge is anxiety, too little is boredom. How to tune it? (1) Lower the hurdle. (2) Compress time for a given task. (3) Define scope (What needs to be done? Why? How long?)

14.00 Bypassing/response inhibition. Engaging in a task as soon as you are committed. Don't waver. Sleep to flow is an example.

17.30 Flow payoff — have long blocks of focus, where the struggle to get into flow is actually worth it.

Zu hohe Temperaturen führen zu Schädigungen in den Baumkronen tropischer Bäume, die die Fähigkeit zur Photosynthese eingeschränken. Eine umfangreiche Studie aus der Basis von Satellitenmessungen und Feldforschung zeigt, dass solche Werte durch die globale Erhitzung immer häufiger erreicht werden und damit die Fähigkeiten vor allem der Regenwälder behindern als CO2 l-Senken zu wirken.

Active inhibition is the filter that prevents our minds from being constantly flooded with memories and allows us to focus. It acts as a barrier between our long term memories and our immediate present.

Is the filter behind active inhibition really active or is it passive? What is the actual physiological mechanism?
