Your Bettermind Journal

Welcome to Your Bettermind Journal, an innovative self-help journal designed to place yourself in a positive mindset, manage your focus, and push your abilities to the limit. It's your guide to living a truly flourishing life in this world of ever-increasing distractions. Attention spans are evaporating and focus has become a lost art. Contrary to "conventional wisdom", this is not the fault of technology. It's your brain's fault and the tech is just making the problem worse. Our brains are wired to constantly seek and classify new information. Thoughts arise throughout the day, often transient, sometimes persistent. Emotions are triggered and may gallop out of control without warning. How can we possibly concentrate with all that busy work going on in our minds? Controlling your focus is the key to managing these natural processes (as well as your preoccupation with technology and social media). The methods used in this journal are inspired by Neuroscience, the study of the structure and function of the brain and nervous system, as well as real world experience. It's our goal to share these science based exercises with as many individuals as possible so we can all move closer to the goal of achieving maximum potential. One of the most effective ways to develop a new skill is through repetition, so we've packed this journal with habit forming activities that will teach you to control your focus and ultimately transform the way you think, feel and perform. How do you know if you're tapping into your full creativity? How do you know if you're doing your best work and reaching your full potential? It all comes down to achieving focused concentration of attention or energy on what is important to you. Your Bettermind Journal is designed to introduce you to powerful insights learned through Neuroscience so you can effectively apply these principles in your everyday life.
