Ever wonder why your ADHD brain feels like it's spinning at 10,000 RPMs while the world moves at 10?
You're not broken—you're just operating on a different frequency.
In this episode, I sit down with physicist Brian Keating, author of "Focus" and the man who almost won a Nobel Prize (and wrote a book about losing it).
We dive deep into the science of attention, the physics of focus, and why your hyperactive mind might be your greatest competitive advantage.
Brian breaks down his FOCUS framework—Follow One Course Until Successful—and explains how the same principles that govern the universe can help you harness your scattered energy into laser-focused execution.
What You'll Learn:
- Why 99% of the universe is invisible (and what that teaches us about focus)
- The FOCUS method used by Nobel Prize winners to achieve breakthrough results
- How to turn ADHD "chaos" into your secret weapon for seeing opportunities others miss
- The "Dune" principle: How to see the one path through infinite possibilities
- Why losing can be the best thing that ever happens to your career
