Excellent chapter on purpose

Good read on the “interest” of things such as your career and passion.

good chapter on how grit grows over time with life experience and maturing stages.

Good chapter on toxins and how certain ones like mold/microplastics play a role in everyday life.

Talent x effort = skill
Skill x effort = achievement

I liked the bit a the end of chapter about Scott being a “slow learner” and his early years of life and that being a roadblock for him to join and apply for organizations/schools. He persevered by playing the cello with the help of his grandfather that gave him lessons. This unlocked another gear to his learning and allowed him to achieve more with the true grit he had.

Nice opening so far, grit is a way of sticking it through. That is what I picking up so far.

Good chapter read on the importance of exercise for your brain health.

long read session, a lot of good stuff. I like the breakdown of the keto diet and what foods to eat to get certain nutrients.

“When there is a why, there is a will” this was a great chapter covering the many ways patients embark on their adventures against negative decline. Bruce’s “why” had to do with being in his own opinion a late stage dad (late 50s) and wanting to change his lifestyle changes as he was developing a bit of memory loss. This was a very pushing chapter to this book so far.

Good stuff on big pharma companies and their “for
Profit” tactics with getting doctors and physicians to buy in on their certain medications

A lot of great testimonies from the “centenarians” in this chapter. I liked the ones about the two married folks and also sherry who is the one that danced.

Exposure to Toxins, sedentary lifestyle ,etc just to name a few. Can lead to cognitive decline.

Sugar is bad for the brain huh?

Good so far, I am really interested in what information this book will provide.

Today, I learned Picasso was influenced by African art
