Tips for getting the most from meeting - http://cn.wsj.com/big5/20120224/eoe082439.asp?source=rss No meeting should ever be more than an hour, under penalty of death.

The biggest predictor of ineffectiveness in a 1:1 was a manager talking more than the direct report. The ideal balance involves the direct report speaking between 50% and 90% of the time. While the agenda will dictate some of this, the manager should avoid talking more than their direct. This is not as easy as it sounds: We talk about ourselves because it feels good.

And forgetting is what humans do; often what we need to do. The title character in Jorge Luis Borges’s story Funes the Memorious, who acquires a perfect memory as the result of an accident, can no longer sleep because he is kept awake by the thousand mundane memories that whined like mosquitoes in his ears. The “peculiar mixture of forgetting with our remembering,” wrote William James, one of the founders of modern psychology, “is the very keel on which our mental ship is built.” “If we remembered everything,” he continued, “we should on most occasions be as ill off as if we remembered nothing.” - https://www.theguardian.com[..]total-recall-the-people-who-never-forget Does LSD make you smarter?

But it might have to do with the brain’s unique chemical composition. The brain has a 1-to-1 ratio of proteins to lipids, which is distinct from other soft tissues that contain more carbohydrates and have different protein-to-lipid ratios. This specific ratio could be crucial, especially when metals like iron are introduced, potentially causing proteins and lipids to bind together and last longer. Many such preserved brains were found to contain iron oxide — also known as rust. https://www.zmescience.com[..]d-intact-human-brains-baffle-scientists/ Working memory: the mind’s “toss it” chair - https://www.zmescience.com[..]/medicine/mind-and-brain/working-memory/ How much of human intelligence is genetic versus acquired?
