Muscle Memory

Society EN ↓ 34 episodes

A podcast about the decisions we don't think much about, but probably should. I really believe the decisions we make are true reflections of our character. The thing is, the vast majority of the decisions we make in a day, we don't think much about. In this podcast, I want to reflect on those really involuntary, muscle memory, decisions. I think that's the way to become a better person - get a little better every day.

What’s lunch for? 08.10.2019 7:37

I recently remembered how strong of an instinct we get when forced to pick a seat in an open cafeteria. Here’s the link to the book referenced: https://www.amazon.com/How-Behavior-Spreads-Contagions-Analytical/dp/0691175314.

Feel the anger 07.10.2019 9:13

Take shorter showers 03.10.2019 7:08

A few extra minutes showering cascades problems through the whole day. “Deciding” to just take a shorter shower is surprisingly difficult.

When you least feel like it, turn toward your partner 03.10.2019 8:18

All marriages are fragile and vulnerable, even my own. This story about potty training was a lesson in coming back to the table, when you least feel like it.
