The technique that freed me from rumination: naming biases

Free Thoughts /

This week I identified the bias that’s dominated me for decades: “I Depend on Others, I don’t collaborate with Others.” The technique of naming it—giving it a name when it arrives—depotentiated it. The brain shifts from passive to active. Rumination decreases, cognitive bandwidth frees up, ideas come. I haven’t solved it, but I no longer submit. The origin? Adolescence, adult responsibilities too soon. The catalyst? Amelia, 26 weeks, 710 grams, 109 days NICU. From forced hero to anti-hero to strategist. Naming, accepting, evolving. Tools make the difference.

Golf, empty mind and perceptual time: my conscious refuge

Free Thoughts /

Golf taught me something forced meditation never could: emptying the mind without forcing it. The swing demands free mind, present body. A few seconds in physical time, immense in perceptual time. Like when you play with your kids and look like a complete goofball: them happy, you happy. Empty mind, full joy. Golf isn’t just sport. It’s my way of finding harmony. Find your swing.

Verticalizing: today’s effort becomes tomorrow’s well-being for all

Complexity /

Verticalizing means personalizing the approach. It costs effort today but generates well-being tomorrow. It’s not privilege, it’s equity: giving each person what they need for the same goal. From yourself to children, from work to the world. A neurodivergent student verticalized today becomes an autonomous adult tomorrow. An understood employee today becomes an effective leader tomorrow. Effort is investment. Well-being is return. Exponential.

Accepting is not surrendering: the power of conscious serenity

Free Thoughts /

For years I thought accepting meant surrendering. But accepting is not submitting. It’s conscious strategy. From the science of post-trauma Tetris to the serenity/happiness distinction, to the paradox: when you stop fighting what you can’t change, you gain more power. Acceptance isn’t passivity. It’s emotional intelligence.

From Pandora’s box to sedimentation: Gen Z, Millennials and the future

Complexity /

Gen Z opened Pandora’s box by showing the old system was unsustainable. Millennials stand at a crossroads: follow the “restoration” of previous generations or build the future with patience and strategy? From video games to the Nepal case with One Piece voted on Discord, I observe how sedimentation is creating real change.
