(00:00) Habit formation or habits. Identity formation when I was an intermediate I used to continuously write my name as my efforts have increased like anything. So the moment identity comes your pride builds up. When your pride builds up, your efforts build. When your efforts build up, your efforts become sustained.
(00:32) Employment or bad at the same time. After 60 years of what you got you here will not get you there. Any human action, every action can be learned, can be earned, can be skilled, can be unskilled, can reskill again. How to upgrade myself?
(01:21) What is the most important cause for premature death? Sir, the most important cause for death is bad habits, sir. human machine. This machine has ability to live at least 120 years very very very easily. Boredom is a disease of brains. That is the reason so much of entertainment has come into that bordain series of dopamine spikes in very short limited durations.
(01:53) That distraction has become an addiction. It is called addictive distraction. Addictive distraction. Polity hub podcast series topic everyone is equally interested and it is also relevant to everyone important what got you here won't get you Next
(02:37) important doctors function special development requested him and just to add credibility he's also closely associated with Indian Railways cricket team sports coach he's working so without wasting time much let's get into this podcast I'm pretty sure the podcast is going to be very
(03:21) insightful try to watch this until the end sir welcome to this podcast sir >> thank you Vive >> first thing sir Habit >> right >> and what is the significance of habit? >> So habit basically human pattern action repeated action whether it is a positive result or negative result is a pattern.
(03:45) human actions or any action is a pattern. Everything whe are actually a pattern. >> So our pattern human actions are actually a pattern. The moment we know the pattern then we can understand what actually a habit is. Supposedly okay human crime. So if I ask my any IPS officer friends how to catch a criminal they say that they will understand the pattern of the crime.
(04:24) So human actions are always pattern. So habit is a conditioned pattern. The moment we condition the action that becomes a pattern and the pattern becomes a habit. So these are three things. One is condition then pattern and the repetition of that conditioned pattern is called habit. >> Okay. Okay sir. happy important.
(04:52) So definitely sir whether it is success or whether we want to achieve something or supposedly even if we lost something and we have to gain again or even if it is a bad habit to overcome that bad habit we always need a habit sir human actions are always habit >> sir habit good or bad identify so good or a bad habit consider it as a human action >> a human a pattern conditioned human pattern action So 90 lights are there.
(05:36) That is called a reward mechanism or hormones. That is a spark which has created a light in your brain. So then the body or the brain assumes that there is some reward which is present there. >> But what happens with a bad habit is >> the moment you do a bad habit not to name any what happens is 90 lights the moment 90 lights oh this is very good and feeling.
(06:10) So the thing here is okay good habit is one and one ampere or one series light whereas 90 one bad habit is 90 lightsabism 90. So that is the basic problem with a good habit and a bad habit. >> And a good habit dull and boring. bad habit, exciting exciting in sense brain perceives it as >> yes brain perceives it as an excitement to it and supposedly good habit habit suppose if you had to become good at and if the brain has to perceive
(06:56) the same lights of 90 lights until unless you don't do a action for 90 days series slow compound effect. The moment 90 thought thinks that oh this is a very beautiful action and it has got a very good reward mechanism. But the problem with an bad habit is the moment you do anything the um the hormone mechanism directly activates 90 W rather than going it from the series 1 2 3 10 50 90 directly 90 Good habit formain.
(07:54) So good habit and good habit sustaining of a good habit is very frictionful reward mechanism. 1 hour end of the event is only one series of events. Rather than we cannot with good habits we cannot directly have a 90 W bulb igniting in your brain. That is how humans are wired. That is how our systems are wired.
(08:30) same related questionab 89 887 80 and one and there is a series of elimination of bad habits that is called addition by subtraction method. So either you have to add by subtracting the negative habits slow then the habit negative or the bad
(09:19) habits they will have no effect on your brain. So that takes lots of time also sir good habit takes very habit to form as a good habit it takes at least 90 days. The same is the case with a bad habit turning into a good habit. It will at least take 90 to 180 days and 90 to 180 days. Kand you have to slow slowly slow slowly eliminate those processes until unless you don't eliminate those processes.
(09:51) That negative habit will not come will not be eliminated in your uh brain matter altogether. >> Cigarette smoke. >> Okay. Right. >> They want to come out of it. Many many people might be there. They want to get out of it by subtraction but he's struggling >> how can he get out of it sir. So before any action whether it is converting into a good action or bad action or bad action that is very important.
(10:31) Now that you have asked me about smoking rather I will tell you about some other thing which we can compare it the both uh this one and the other one. Any human action atomic habits any human action is divided into four parts called Q craving response and reward the moment you see it. So the moment you have seen it okay
(11:27) you stop your car and you enter into that McDonald's place and you buy that and you eat it and you get the reward and your hunger is satisfied. Mhm. >> So you see it, >> okay? You want it, >> then you buy it, then you like it. >> See it, then uh you want it, then you buy it, then you like it. The same is the case with human atomic habits also, sir.
(12:02) Q craving response and the Q is the moment that is called craving and the response is you stop there and you buy that the moment you buy that and when you eat that then that that is the reward mechanism. So any human action e four parts compulsory see it want it buy it and like it. M >> the same is the case with even a negative habit of smoking smoking supposedly cigarette you have seen it then you have a craving okay then you buy that cigarette and you smoke that cigarette then you have a nicotine pumped in your blood and that is how the dopamine is activated so this
(12:41) is basic human action so addiction or whether it is an addiction or whether it is a normal efficiency excellence program. So this is the pattern how human actions work at each level. s smoking and alcoholism. So suppose good will come to the negative aspect of the bad bad habit. Goodabbit compound effect. But in case of bad habit first thing is you have to get away from
(13:27) that place. If you are not getting away from that place and if you are any bad habit suppose the bad habit supposedly smoking first is it is not only the cigarette packet which is available which is which you can see not only that second one is the smell of the cigarette also >> that is second and the third is companionship of your smoking buddies also.
(13:55) So things the thing is that we cannot find a success. The moment immediate you have to give some reward to your brain. I did it and the moment but your brain wants dopamine. Your brain wants serotonin. Your brain wants because that is a reward which we are conditioned for reward. You have to give a reward for yourself.
(14:43) Supposedly if you have abstained from smoking or not going to your friend or you have abstained or you have moved away from the place where people are smoking >> the moment you go out of that place you have to tap your shoulder that I have done this >> then your brain perceives that yes series of perceiving rewards then we can lose a craving of Q in the craving of a negative habit.
(15:13) habit formation related books actually easy to understand. Uh if you can explain it with little more depth and detail identity formation Identity form. What exactly is this sir? identity formation went sir. So this is in my example I'll tell you >> m >> when I was an intermediate I used to continuously write my name as Dr. Praep Chiluka.
(15:53) >> Mhm. >> So to my name I have an I have added an identity sir that is doctor. >> The moment I have added my efforts have increased like anything sir. >> I I perceived myself that I am a doctor. >> Then I started my preparation very well. Then then I corrected myself and that identity even if I did not become doctor I have created that identity beforehand itself.
(16:29) The moment I created that identity my efforts have increased like more than 100 to 120%. Sir not only the effort the impact of the efforts also increased. That is first example sir. Second example after MBBS I wanted to become an orthopetic surgeon then now I'm I in the MBBS I used to write Dr. Praep Ms or so that is second identity which I got and the moment I became an orthopetic surgeon then I wanted to become a civil servant now what I wrote is Dr.
(16:59) So that brought an identity. >> So the moment identity comes your pride builds up sir. >> When your pride builds up your efforts build up. When your efforts build up your efforts become sustained. That is how any habit formation then systematic change. Then we have to make a identity even if you become that first itself.
(17:20) >> Okay. Actions positive. Right. Right. If you want to change your identity, announce it, keep it low. It's a personalized plans and fast people. Some people keep it very low and then their success speaks of it and some people they openly announce it and they work for it. So if I wanted to become civil servant but I openly declared that I wanted to
(18:08) become civil servant the moment I openly declared socialility okay then I have create I have created my identity before that now I should not be ashamed of all these things. So that is first identity you know when you announce that and second thing off later when people keep it very low and not preparation the moment success comes and the success will speak that things out loud that is a personalized plan both are good and if you can choose whichever method which works for you that is much better sir sir especially good habits key And good
(18:52) habits uh probably they are not easy to make in the first place. You have to have many micro habits surrounding them. >> So microabs compliment good habit I've read in couple of books. Yes. Sir, what exactly are this micro habits? If you can explain with an example and also micro habits compliment say for instance if I want to eat healthy in a day I cannot eat all fruits and all among vegetables or I cannot eat all the salads continuously one time itself rather what I can do is I can create a
(19:39) four quadrant plate and I can create a four quadrant plate. and rice chapati then curd then fruit. So slowly slowly slowly if you can make a quadrant pattern quadrant pattern. Suppose I want to have carrot today and tomorrow I want to have uh kira and the third day I will add carrot and k and fourth day I will add carrot k and a fruit that has come into one box and after one week or 10 days what you can do is I can lower my rice quantity.
(20:13) you can lower your rice quantity lower you can substitute with uh the some other fruit or nuts and the third quadrant where you are eating lots of non-vegetarian so you can slowly eliminate you can put lots of uh soaked sprouts and all those things. So four quadrant rather than having a full meal completely all together.
(20:38) Micro habits slow you will add add add the moment it becomes add add it becomes a synergistic effect and >> the moment it becomes synergistic effect the effect is more than 100%. If you ask how effective it is and it becomes an identity itself together >> everyone want to do workouts >> or everybody wanted to be physically active.
(21:00) >> True. True. >> Uh can you identify some specific micro habits which an individual has to have >> so that physical activity regular physical activity that will become part of the lifestyle. So micro habits why are they important if I ask a person to 60 minutes exercise they will not exercise rather what we can do is 15 minutes.
(21:28) So we have curtailed the time. Now second is curt 15 minutes. If I ask them what are they interested in? Suppose if they are interested someone is interested in walking. Okay let them walk for 15 minutes. If someone is interested in jumping let them skip for uh 15 minutes. If someone is interested in lifting weights or something.
(21:48) So let them do the 15 minutes. Now after doing that 15 minutes continuously for 1 week or 15 days when the body is accustomed. Okay, I can do this. Then on the 15th or on the 21st day, what you can do is you can ask the person to increase another 5 minutes more. But your body thinks that your mind thinks that another 45 minutes is a burden on me.
(22:13) >> Rather than you have to cheat your brain saying that it is not 45 minutes which I will do rather I will do five more minutes more than so 20 minutes you have increased. Suppose 20 minutes another 1 month now you can increase another 5 minutes 25 minutes and slowly upgraded incremental approach your body 6 months time 6 months your brain has created so much of accustomed feeling second thing is the reward feeling and the third thing is so good feeling and the hormones are studied in your blood so you don't have to face a reward and
(22:52) separate that has become a part and parcel of your daily activity. So graded approach one at a time one at a time. Rahul Rait's very famous saying one ball at a time one ball at a time one ball the same is the case here one exercise at a time 1 minute 2 minutes 5 minutes slowly slowly slowly you have to pull your reward mechanisms also sir habit stacking is habit stacking more or less the same as micro habits or separate this is also very important in sustaining habit.
(23:34) So if you can clarify it with little more depth stacking what we keep is so that uh your energy is saved. Your energy is saved and why energy is saved. human you are very careful about balancing the wheel. Second thing is not only balancing you have to move it forward and when you are moving it forward moving forward and balancing and the third is now the speed is added not only speed sir you have to change the
(24:18) direction also okay multiple things >> multiple things your brain might be utilizing 100% of energy for that event but as and when that event becomes slowly slowly slowly energy 100% that has become automated and it it uses only 1% of your energy 1% of energy but all the habits are arranged in a proper coherent manner even if 30 years if you I didn't because that is how the habits have
(25:02) saved that energy that is one seconding It is like chaining a habit. Chaining habits default we don't buy da all together we will buy the paste the same is with if you can add two habit supposeab immediate I will do some breathing exercise you have hooked that habit >> okay >> you have hooked that habit suppose physical exercise yes I and I have did my breathing exercises.
(25:42) You have looked on someday you thought okay I will shift it from uh hot shower to cold showers. So now the third habit is staged. Third habit now you will say no I will not eat that rather I will have that is fourth habit. So how you habits that complete your lifestyle becomes one habit all together. That is how the good habits actually sustained >> irrespective of what are what phase of life we are at habit formation possible okay student okay he knows that it is
(26:28) important for him to have a habit or let's say working professional habits are important for definitely su uh I am a great avid uh I love Dr. CR Rahan statistician. >> So he after retiring from Indian statistical institute so he had become a worldrenowned uh scientist and recently and he passed away.
(27:02) So he passed away at the age of one or one or three age. What he said is after 60 years the same introduce what you got you here will not get you there. M >> the same is the case sir and any human action even if it is at 0 to 60 or 60 to another 100 years every action can can be made can be learned can be earned can be skilled can unskilled can reskill again sir so these human habits and the only positive and the only formula here is that is Q craving response and reward and the third thing and another see it, want it, do it and like it. So
(27:51) every time your brain wants reward, reward, reward, reward. So it's a reward machine. So the day you are giving it reward, any human action be perfected. It's not about good habit, it's not about bad habit. So how do we identify? Okay. How to upgrade myself? And what you asked is a continuous reinvention of a self.
(28:31) It has reached a plate effect. A complex trauma in reward mechanism after some years it will become plate effect. The energy invested there and the reward mechanisms which you are getting are disproportionate. Your energy, your energy are investing high but reward that is how you reach a plate. Here what is very important is you need to have creativity sir.
(29:12) >> Okay. >> So until skills you have suppose what what skills do I have? So in orthopetics then civil services medical option I'm very good at uh medicine then I wrote uh civil services then I got into civil services now I have a bureaucratic experience of late know I have I felt that I have reached a plateau it is not giving me the returns or it is not giving me the rewards then what I did was I retrospectively introspected myself that what am I good at the moment I came to know that I am good at orthodics then I am good at bureaucracy.
(29:54) I tried to combine these two things by learning sports medicine. Sports medicine slowly I wanted to take this thing aside. If you can creatively combine okay what am I good at then that is how you break a plate effect. So plate effect what are you good at and how good you can combine things that infuses creativity.
(30:19) The moment creativity is infused, you are lifted from that plateau effect. I think very important thing and now that you are asking me uh one question which I asked you and like everyone is aware of >> that is bot physics chemistry. >> So every day I used to have my own notebook Dr. Praep it is botney book pathology book or physiology book or forensic medicine book complex civil services but the question is do we have a book on
(31:10) our known name sir M daily event writing that this is called journaling >> journaling >> journaling and thing is that we are interested in learning other subjects but we are not interested in learning our own subjects our own self you have to have a book of for yourself you have to write okay night 10 minutes this is called a 10-minute habit So next that 10-minute habit if you can have at 10:00.
(31:52) So people say that it is very wonderful. So journaling and the third one is creativity. The second one is creativity. So this is a connected question only. Yes sir. Habit sustainance is one important thing sir and it is like uh good to great >> within a habit. within a habit. What are you good at and how you can become a great? >> So good to great to have to bring that habit to an edge to limit whether it is a good habit.
(32:37) supposedly Michael Phelps >> Michael Phelps he was very good at swimming >> his coach Bob Bman what he said is he gave him different thought supposedly you are blinded you are blinded and how you can swim >> okay >> okay then previously he used to see visually how 100 m distance now What he did is he had ice on his hands and >> when he had ice on his hand when he has tweaked that habit with a different sense altogether okay 1 m one hand one hand two hands 50 m 100 m is 50 m 100 m is 50 times if I
(33:27) do like this 50 times so when he's blinded 50 times I'm reaching that edge of the swimming pool so what happened was In 2012 or 2016 Olympics when he dived >> his goggles got fogged. >> The moment he got fogged then the habit which was tweaked not only sustained now he has excelled that profit by adding another sense organs and the sense organs are not visual sense organs.
(33:53) There were the sense organs were this hands. Okay. The moment hands he perceived the distance. Okay. That became a world record al together. So from good to great it is not only sustaining the habit you have to excel that habit bringing it to the limits and if not limits try to add a different sense organs to that habitat soal great personalities that could be any domain And for instance by virtue of his whatever cast and all I
(34:40) heard busy work not every time it should it should or it could be for spiritual reasons. That is one habit that is sustaining his routine and habit it also helps me to not just unwind myself get back to my work with much more seriousness. >> So simple the point I'm trying to say how important is to ensure that habit and routine go hand in hand craving response and this is called a routine of a habit.
(35:22) Suppose routine of habit this becomes a mechanical event sir mechanical event and when this habit becomes a mechanical event you no longer want to do that you no longer want to do that even if the habit is a routine also okay a mechanical action we have to bring it to a spiritual action sir spirituality of an action I'm I'm making It very clear sir.
(35:54) It is not to do with any religion altogether. It is not to do with any faith of any particular religion. It is action should have a spirit on its own. Sir >> action becoming a mechanical action is one thing where you miss the joy and the second is an action which is converting into spirit all together. So that brings lots of joy and vigor.
(36:16) How to do that? How to do that? That is one routine and some people they have a laughing routine in the morning sir previously laughing therapy and also so they do laughing therapy and some people they have a routine of making journaling in the morning itself that is third. The fourth one is people doing a physical exercise in the mornings.
(36:45) That routine constantly rather than becoming it a mechanical event we have to turn that event into a spiritual event altogether. When that spiritual spirituality is infused into that action then the action becomes very joyful and that brings vigor that brings creativity then that particular action will solve problems of many people also sir human mind and life boredom boredom is a disease of brain sir >> boredom is a disease of brain That is the reason so much of
(37:33) entertainment has come into that boredom action. Suppose suppose morning if I go for a jog for 90 days my brain becomes bored even if I'm sustaining a good habit also it becomes bored rather what I should do now I had have to add some other event to that suppose jogging if I train myself to jump little higher some box exercises that is how multiple variables Every time you will add different level and different surge of dopamine, different surge of oxytocin, different different different hormones hormones then the
(38:19) routine you can break that routine and the boredom it becomes a joyful event especially smartphone attention economy and especially There is a lot of content which is enabling or which is always ensuring that >> that in a way is negatively impacting our creative potential right the modern day problem is with the mobile phones especially mobile phones first is you are distracted sir you are distracted this is Previously when YouTube group started and the YouTube
(39:06) video 1 hour 2 hours now slowly what they have bought they have done is it is shorts. So your attention limit or the attention span is limited to less than 8 seconds 8 to 1 minute shorts. So previously when we used to prepare for civil services or yes but now with the problem here is distraction continuous why distraction because that is how how they are trained satisfactory
(39:54) hormone. So consider that 8 to 20 seconds only. It is metabizing so fast. The 8 to 10 seconds dopamine spike 8 to 10 and a series of dopamine spikes in very short limited durations. Now that is distracted. Okay, that is how they are distracted. But the problem here is one another thing that is that distraction has become an addiction.
(40:28) Sir, >> it is called addictive distraction. The addictive distraction until unless you don't know how human action works. human body. All senses are combined together. touch.
(41:13) There are multiple senses which are present in that flower. The same is the case with anything. So all things are present of all invention. Mobile phone is the perfect synthesia. All senses are vibration. So that is how this become and another beautiful thing with this mobile phone. It is perfectly carved into A5 size.
(41:49) This is portable. Previously laptops were not portable. >> Say for instance handy. Second is the TV screens. They are not handy. Of all the invention this is perfect invention because it is the size of your hand that is AI size and the second thing is it has all the combination of senses. So that is the reason this has become addictive distraction.
(42:12) >> So how to come out of this addictive distraction? We have to explain to our children how habits actually works. >> Until unless we don't tell how habits work we cannot train our children to come out of this addictive distraive distraction disease. opinion distraction already ability to articulate critical thinking focused or attentive work buffalo goats.
(43:03) But humans why we evolved is irrespective of distractions we used to focus. The ability to focus was actually trained focuser. >> We did not get distracted. We tried to focus on one thing only. Now the ability of your focus has so drastically come down that you hardly can focus if if I may not wrong also it is less than 1 minute we cannot focus because of this perfect example so it has got all the senses and it's in perfect shape all together >> so a simple thing sa there's a very famous philosopher he had he So he sits in a corner. He sits in a
(43:56) corner and he was never fearful that he will die. Then one day after if I'm not wrong people ask what people ask him sir sir how did you overcome that fearful fearfulness or the frustration or the agitation which you had and the fear of death altogether. What he said was daily he had this routine to sit quietly in a corner room for at least 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the evening in a jail cell.
(44:32) So rather Sir, at least sit in a corner, do nothing for at least 15 minutes morning and 15 minutes evening. Sir, the moment you sit there quietly, slowly your ability to focus will come again. So rather than what is important is we not saying children sit down, let we do first, let we do sit in a corner so that our child sees that okay sitting in a corner is a good thing.
(45:01) That is how slowly we can defeat this destructive addictive disease. Good habits health physical health positives. Good habits mental health. I have a counter question for you sir. Sure please. >> You are also a doctor. Yes. >> What is the most important cause for premature death sir? >> Most important cause for premature deaths.
(45:31) contemporary first non-communicable disase diabetes and hypertension cardiovascular disase or cerebraas >> nice third fourth fifth anything you can tell >> cancer um >> so what if I say the accumulated thing is bad habits >> very true >> the most important cause for death is >> bad habits >> okay >> the most important uh >> wonderful >> the most important uh habit for launch Longity is good habits sir.
(46:00) >> M >> so this will impact not only you personally it is uh impacts your surrounding people also it impacts your children also it impacts your surrounding also. So everyone late medicine 2019 civil services I used to read medicine from the perspective of disease pulmonary arterial hypertension pulmonary fibrosis asperilosis the benefits of lung lung hormones hormones vital capacity improve now the perspective from the disease I have with good habits my perspective changed towards health.
(46:40) M m >> so and then the cause for premature death is bad habits. >> Wonderful. Okay. Got it sir. It's not just physical healthcificity something as ultimate as deathset completely makes sense. Some people are very hard on themselves especially for any reason. They try to do a lot of self criticism. So very important things be skinner and prior be skinner they both they have done uh so much study on
(47:25) animal behavior things animal behavior law they trained many animals they trained dolphins they trained camels they trained tigers lions and everything so from their books I try to quote it sir So and the kind of hard criticism on them that is where we will try to answer the question. So Q craving Q craving response and reward Q response reward 90 days reward mechanisms becomes internalized in your body.
(48:09) The moment reward mechanism becomes internalized in your body then another very critical element will come out sir that critical element is called reinforcement which atomic habit book does not have that reinforcement reinforcement motor if the motor is there and if there is no electricity and the motor cannot run that electricity is called reinforcement reinforcement positive reinforcement and negative reinforcement.
(48:46) Positive reinforcement uh this is catch catch it when you are doing good. Suppose some someone is doing good. You catch it immediately and you appreciate that. Okay, you have done good and you have done good. So that this is called positive reinforcement reinforcement reinforcement that particular habit again. So this is external positive reinforcement.
(49:18) Coming to if you say that I have criticized myself and what are we doing? We are punishing ourselves. We are punishing ourselves. That is punishment is called negative reinforcement. The moment negative reinforcement happens actually what what we are thinking that bad habits so the moment rather than you criticizing yourself criticizing we have to be critical okay what am I going wrong and all but don't be so emotively self-critical that it completely kills your spirit rather than that how better I can critical event what good things what
(50:02) have I done good so rather than finding negativities you find the positive things in that event so that you can nudge them and you can slowly move ahead >> then reinforcement theory >> okay sir understood very true so I'll come back to that idea of journalism which you mentioned >> that's very important >> now >> but many people struggle it frankly saying every year I invest good amount of money >> 1,500 2,000 rupees planner with journalism sorry with journal >> and I want to write on a regular basis >> but not able to do it uh in what is
(50:42) stopping people from using journal and I want you to elaborate a little more on its utility sir so this is uh very important sir journaling is very very very very important sir why is it very important I'll give you an example sir King Richard and a cinema juicer. >> No. >> So it is a life story of um Serena Williams and Venus Williams father.
(51:05) Actually King Richard after 20 or 30 minutes night 10:00 his father says that please uh go and write your journal. Okay. So uh they that is a particular scene actually of late and after Serena and Venus Williams they have uh they have become greatest of all the time. So they were asked in an interview at different different times at different different places at different different people also the most important uh match or the most important uh uh award which is very very very very satisfying for you.
(51:50) Which which game is that? Which event is that? Time and again they said journaling sir they the seven eight years they had this habit of writing 10 night 10 p.m. They used to have 10 minutes and they used to write about that game and what are they going to plan 10 minutes they might be 40 years and that books which are present in their home that is the most precious award for them.
(52:22) That is where actually the corrective measures happens >> and that is where you uh face yourself. That is where corrective capacities build. That is where invention or innovation will build and that is where the satisfaction also comes. The most important thing is correcting you yourself.
(52:45) Until you don't correct yourself and nothing can come out of yourself. >> What is the best time in the day to do this? >> The best time in the day. Now the question is the best time in the day. I'll give you one another example. Formula 1 races still says >> Formula 1 races it's a very top speed game where uh it moves around 400 km/ hour but yet uh many people they don't die they don't die many races they don't die >> correct >> why why because that is called mini programming sir >> mini programming They train themselves for every 1 hour
(53:28) to write journal about themselves. >> When a prati one hour low what they write is I will not die. I will not die. I will live alive. I will live life. I will live life. I will live. So that mini programming. Now if you come to F1 races every 1 hour they write sir how they want to drive how they want to um efficiently invent themselves one hour from the age of 7 to now whoever it may be sir Rasa Rasa Ras mini program in journaling cha cha cha this is almost 40 years they have done the 40 years what they have done is sir they
(54:10) have defeated the death of society. >> M >> so mini programming or journaling has an ability to bring you back from the death and uh it gives you so much of creativity, so much of satisfaction and so much of invention. Not only that sir, another very important thing is of all the events in human life, the only thing which we have no control is time s >> time continuously moves.
(54:39) But uh when you start journaling supposedly F1 racers and some people and highly effective people what they do is they will have a morning journal, afternoon journal and evening journal and night journals. They divide four parts and they have four different time journals and it doesn't take much time. Okay, I have done this wrong.
(55:04) I will do this better. Just one or two words. A one towards Rasunt the time also comes under your controls. >> When the time and the energy becomes your greatest friends through journaling, >> you can be a satisfied human being, successful human being. related question and I read somewhere Mark Zuckerberg uh just to minimize the events or decision making which are supposed to be done on a regular basis and to sustain his routine and even color and breakfast same breakfast same time in the day >> and is this good
(55:49) >> sir and that is how he is trained and that is how He is living. He is also equally efficient human being but he has a different routine altogether and the same is with late and any athletes or any entrepreneurs because he don't want to waste his energy. He don't want to waste his uh he is super rich and he don't want to invest his time to wear this wear this wear this and kakunda he has bought that idea from Steve Jobs and essentially wearing only one single dress that actually he's making a brand for himself
(56:33) so that is how people do it actually so of late I started wearing only white shirts so that that gives me intense peace to me anarch But that is not the way I feel. That is mountain. Someone wants variety in life. That's the reason they wear variety variety shirts, colors also. For women also they wear different different colors.
(56:57) So actually variety brings so much of uh creativity also we can take. It has both good and bad both. >> That's what I'm coming to this sir. There are people who say it openly, >> blatantly routine and habit they kill spice in the life. M life what's your take on this flexible adventurism is a must and you need to have a fine balance between protein and adventurism both supposedly if you become so adventurous adventuristic and what if it is uh costing you your life only sir >> what is what if so that doesn't mean that you have to be very rigid also what
(57:41) I would say that a flexible adventurism is a must that gives lots of spies that that gives lots of creativity and that gives a a different thought perspective all together where you can bring different different thoughts and that is how the pie is enlarged sir. M >> so rigidity and flexibility I was talking about Michael Phelps also so I was reading his biography so he had a rigid routine supposedly u he used to wake up he used to go to his uh swimming pool swim there for almost 8 hours come back in the evening again go
(58:18) and swim this was his continuous 365 days and then this was a rigid routine for him but in that rigid routine he tried to bring so much of spice to that saying that he is competing with a dolphin. Okay. When he was competing with a dolphin in that rigid routine, you have added a creativity there. So, he started competing with the dolphin.
(58:40) That is one. Second thing is then when the dolphin was done, then uh um he thought okay I am I am swimming in desert. So, which is we cannot contemplate also. We cannot think. So, desert doesn't have water. But he was he was thinking that what if the water is so friction that I am moving against. So your mind can imagine anything sir.
(59:02) So that is how actually a rigidity law if you can bring so much of variability and flexibility that particular event itself becomes magnanimous creativity school. I get my best of the creative thoughts when I'm not doing anything. Maybe stroll people habits. We sustain habits that becomes
(59:48) our routine. regular reinvent. You get an inflection point. We are countered with some difficult and very uh troublesome questions. Troublesome questions. Mastery techniques. This is mastery routine. Okay. Mastery two types. internet when I am when I'm taking a shower or I'm taking a walk suddenly a ureka moment had come and I have invented that that is Einstein's uh methods Einstein usually he used to go on when he faced a difficult question
(1:00:34) used to go on a walk when he goes on a walk what happens is you have three minds so mind different calls mind subconscious mind conscious mind subconscious and superconscious So any event conscious event slow that becomes subconscious event that is how memory actually works. The subconscious moment subconscious mind law when you are faced with a troublesome question where we are not finding any problem to that problem it has become so intense vibration in your subconscious mind that it has become a chaos in your mind.
(1:01:15) ranges someone had to just walk that was Einstein's method he walked walked walked muddy waters getting clearer clearer clear clear when the muddy waters becomes clearer clear clear everything appears very transparent to you that is how the mastery that is one and the second one was Mazat Mazat was a musician greatest musician >> he had this routine that he when he leaves his music instrument the chaos multiplies a lot.
(1:01:49) So that's the reason he used to continuously stay with the uh instrument itself. So now we have two techniques one is Einstein methodology and the second one is the moat methodology. So if if and this is how you choose yourself and some days for a single person it may work for Mozart technique and the second person it may work um Einstein method.
(1:02:13) So rather than having a mastery techniques, we should have an ammunition of mastery techniques rather than this is good, this is bad and this is useful, that is useful at any place or any subjective opinion. useful also or sometimes a particular solution your daughter may give a suggestion for you that may become a solution for you.
(1:02:39) It is coming from outside which we have never thought but it's a connected mechanism to each and every persons. So mastery techniques law from habit to routine to inflection point to mastery mastery law you need to have multiple techniques with you so that that can be useful for your own self-improvements. So we spoke a lot about habits and all and habit formation habit sain next level.
(1:03:08) Do we have any frameworks so that becomes part of our life and that becomes our identity. >> Right? Sir Manindi first is identity based which which gives you lots of pride and the second one is we were talking about the journal how to uh do a journal and write about yourself rather journal we can call it as expressive sensual writings when you write a journal suppose I woke up at 10:00 that has become it has become a dull rather I woke up uh today with a foggy brain but I did uh 10 minutes of jumping and my brain became
(1:03:52) act and I'm very joyful and now it has added uh emotion to that writings that is called expressive sensual writings ESW. So journal it will not give you anything. You have to add little emotion to that. If possible use different different color sketch pens rather than putting a word what I would say is put a put a figure suppose I'm having so that gives you a great imprint.
(1:04:33) So our mind our brain is accustomed to images rather than words. That is one. >> Yes. >> First is the first instrument was expressive sensual writing. From journals you become expressive. You add some senses into that. >> Yes. >> Then that becomes expressive sensual writings. That is one. And second thing is your checklist sir. Checklist.
(1:04:53) What is checklist? As doctors round we used to have patient conscious coherent cooperative then pulse rate then BP then temperature then uh heart sounds then lung sounds that is a checklist where we used to have the same is case with any intensive care unitporate setup or any setup hospital you have many checks there you have boxes there boxes you will keep thing actually checklist manifest so he gives an example of how checklist
(1:05:40) has saved uh infectious uh patient okay infectious they simply followed that checklist they tick their boxes they tick their boxes and they have ticked their boxes till the patient is out of the hospital when they tick their boxes. First thing is their arrogance has come down sircept and every time they ticked their progress was visible.
(1:06:08) If they did not take they come back and they tick again checklist. Not only that checklist manifest, the only instrument which is present, the only instrument which is present in case of any flight disasters or any submarine disasters, they will follow the checklist protocols. When you follow that your life is the same is the case with checklist also.
(1:06:38) So what and as parent as uh and as a bureaucrat anything if you have a checklist and if you maintain that checklist every and reinvent that checklist every 14 days and you continuously actively participate in that checklist and try to focus on the progress of the checklist slowly if we can have checklist then that brings us to a mastery levels.
(1:07:02) The first one is you we have to understand how human action works. Q craving response and reward craving response reinforcement reinforcement slowly when you practice that becomes a routine you will reach to inflection point inflection point then you have a mastery techniques mastery or your daughter's method she might give you an input that is second and we turn it at at any level whether it is from the zero level to the mastery level where a beginner to a master level the instruments are only two sir that is journaling and your checklist. If you
(1:07:43) can follow these two techniques journaling and checklist journaling and check even if you cannot do continuously also you come back and do you come back and do you come back and do then you come back and do come back and do this is a master adding to that suppose suppose you have taken a um dictim saying that in 90 days I will not leave a workout.
(1:08:09) Okay, first one week you have gone with great intensity on 8th or 9th day suppose any family emergency you could not go you could not go what you have to do is I have done exercise so one week you have done a good workout okay but 8th or nth day you were busy because some family emergency you could not work out that is a bad workout.
(1:08:38) 10th day you have done a good workout. 10th day and you have done a bad workout. The here is the bad workouts will protect the good workouts chain method another. So you continuously don't break the chain. You make the chain >> however tough it may be. At least you tell to your brain that okay I did one squat. Okay, I did one squat.
(1:09:03) I have completed that routine. So the bad workouts will protect the good workouts. The same is the case with journaling and the same is the case with checklist also. Even if you cannot write it, at least write a word. Don't leave that page empty. You understand? Don't leave that box unticked. The moment you do that, the bad things will protect the good things.
(1:09:22) Sir, I've learned a lot of things. I felt like taking down notes also sir. uh in because we are talking a lot on habit and of course podcast we deliberately wanted to do it only on habitu I know there is another area about which you talk passionately and you also did lot of research on it and I heard that me officer so you you're giving a lecture on longevity and a topic uh before uh we conclude this podcast quick 2 minutes why you picked this passion for uh longevity and how important do you think is for every one of us to focus on that.
(1:09:57) >> Right? So longevity before 1960s the human average 1950 the human average age is was 40 years they used to die because of the communicable diseases or infectious diseases they used to die. So the mortality was around 40 years to 45 years low many people used to die. Okay. But of late after independence or after so much of science technological innovation and all now the average human life has increased up to 70 years sir.
(1:10:29) >> But we are living with diseases sir. So 70 years forum our age is getting progressed but we are living with many complication whether it is autoimmunity type 2 diabetes hypertension um for for that matter gallstones obesity many diseases and the disease burden has increased and actually we are living with diseases we're not living healthy we're not living healthy so my observation was as I was saying Till 2019 I did I joined my medicine in 2002 at Osmani medical college then I did my orthopedics then I was associate
(1:11:09) assistant professor orthopetics also then I was practicing orthopetics then I thought I civil services then I wrote civil services with medical optional four times I wrote uh I went for interview two times I got IS and third I and fourth I could not make to the finalist till 2019 I was reading medicine and of late I am currently I did my Harvard sports medicine and the second one is I I'm about to complete my international Olympic sports medicine also and I'm currently doing many things and then in 2019 from the disease perspective it has
(1:11:39) shifted to health perspective s >> so human machine human machine this machine has ability to live at least 120 years very very very very easily s very easily we can live and how to tweak and off can I show a picture that could be of much benefit to people also. >> Sure sir. >> Okay. I shall share it with you also.
(1:12:08) >> So there are micro level and like if you can tweak your oxygen levels in your blood if you can tweak the mitochondrial level if you can tweak the cell membrane if you can tweak your tomease. So longevity human cellucleater end part is called tmer suppose kilome
(1:13:03) pieces you will have two pieces. Okay, you will have five pieces. Suppose if you cut it in 1 cm you will have 10 pieces. Yes, the same is the case with longevity also. This is this is very easy sir of late Brienne Johnson of late >> even Jeff Bezos is funding >> Jeff Bezos is funding Peter Rata is doing and many people are talking about longevity anti-aging self-healing so out of my own experience I tell you I'll
(1:13:49) show you that also uh and We have done a small uh one day it's a report I never thought I'll uh share it with I have done and my wife had she had a very severe adinoiosis so we followed a strict protocol of how to self-healing and and I read again pathology gynecology then we tried to tweak some human mechanisms human mechanisms and human physiology the tweak ch with the nutrition with physical exercise with breathing techniques with many many other things are there with with fastings and with journals with checklists and how is it happening
(1:14:32) studying your own emotions and Peter Brien Johnson so last year my wife had an adinomiiosis and it's god's grace that uh this February we have done a report and that report shows there is no abnormality at all >> wonderful >> so we can heal also when you're healing you are actually living longer. the same Brienne Johnson could have I know he's investing some billions of billions of rupees to reverse his age biological age and chron and it is very easy thing sir how we can uh live longer and we can heal our diseases and we can uh anti-age
(1:15:07) also sir >> wonder we can decrease our age also >> great sir so great to know this insights probably next time next once again uh Thank you so much and you have shared wonderful insights. I'm sure suggestion if it is implemented in its truest sense uh definitely game changer. First of all I have to implement myself many things which you have said it's a great learning curve for me also and I definitely learned a lot in chapatu.
(1:15:46) Once again thank you so much for coming here sir. >> Thank you sir. Thank you.
