A batch of the best highlights from what Fabien's read, .
Finalement, dans nos tentatives de nous affranchir du déterminisme de notre striatum, l’enjeu de la conscience se révélera central. La plupart de nos actes sont entrepris avec un très faible niveau de conscience. Lorsque nous vaquons à des tâches ménagères, prenons le chemin du travail, faisons du vélo ou du footing, quand nous nous brossons les dents ou sommes à table, nous agissons le plus souvent de manière machinale. Même lorsque nous nous livrons à des activités intellectuelles, il serait faux d’affirmer que nous le faisons en toute conscience.

Ask yourself: How do you grow personally? How do you grow professionally? Are you a better person today than you were yesterday? How do you get your co-workers and direct reports to grow personally? How do you get your co-workers and direct reports to grow professionally? How do you challenge and stretch yourself? Are you learning something every day? What is your vision for where you want to go? How do you get the company as a whole to grow? Are you doing everything you can to promote company growth, and at the same time are you helping others understand the growth? Do you understand the company vision?

For animals, unburdened by the need to translate physical sensations into abstract language, emotions function smoothly, as they were meant to. For us, the split between our emotions and our cognition is a source of constant internal friction, comprising a second Emotional Self within us that operates beyond our will. Animals feel fear for a brief time, then it is gone. We dwell on our fears, intensifying them and making them last well past the moment of danger, even to the point of feeling constant anxiety.
