study published in Radiation Protection Dosimetry found that melatonin secretion is significantly disrupted by exposure to electromagnetic fields. The study’s authors concluded that it would be in our best interest if we limit our exposure even to weak EMFs. As you know, melatonin is not just a critical hormone for regulating our sleep; it’s also an important anticancer hormone. With consistent exposure to EMFs, our body’s melatonin production can be thrown out of whack. It’s important to realize that WiFi and various forms of radio waves are extremely new forms of energy that we humans have been playing around with. We know that the human body is extremely conductive, and because it has been such a short time since we’ve had this form of technology, we still don’t know the long-term impact of creating a giant WiFi umbrella around our world.

Implementing this in business is fairly straightforward: Tighten feedback loops. Practice agile design. Put mechanisms in place so attention doesn’t have to wander. Ask for more input. How much input? Well, forget quarterly reviews. Think daily reviews. Studies have found that in professions with less direct feedback loops—stock analysis, psychiatry, medicine—even the best get worse over time. Surgeons, by contrast, are the only physicians that improve the longer they’re out of medical school. Why? Mess up on the table and someone dies. That’s immediate feedback.
