053 - Everything You Need to Know About the "Second Wind"

FAREWELL - Un pódcast de The Growth Equation

Categorías:

You're probably familiar with the phenomenon of the "second wind." You're doing something difficult, going all out, giving max effort, and just when you feel like you've hit your wall—BOOM—you get an unexpected surge of energy to push you to the finish line. It's great when it happens, which begs the question: why does it happen? And how can we make it more likely to occur again? Today, the guys break down the physiology and psychology behind the phenomenon, what we still don't know about it, and how we can increase our chances of catching it. (Hat tip to Mike, who emailed in a question about the second wind!) Plus: a George Orwell quote sparks a debate about the importance of ego and egolessness when it comes to excellence and performance.George Orwell Quote: https://x.com/oldbooksguy/status/1805650757502583096If you are enjoying FAREWELL, do us a huge favor: text your favorite episode to three people so they can enjoy it, too.
