AI can write your emails, summarize your meetings, and generate your strategy decks. But it cannot tell you which decisions actually matter. Everyone is racing to master AI tools. Almost no one is developing the cognitive capabilities that AI makes more valuable, not less. That gap is about to separate those who lead and succeed from those who get left behind.

Do you feel mentally exhausted even when nothing is “wrong”? Does your mind replay conversations, decisions, and worst-case scenarios on a loop you can’t shut off? Tired of managing anxiety instead of actually reducing it? There’s a moment most people don’t talk about. You’re lying in bed. The day is over. Nothing urgent is happening. And yet your mind won’t stop. You analyze what you said. You second-guess what you didn’t do. You prepare for problems that may never exist. You tell yourself to relax and your brain does the opposite.

The culmination of three decades of Allan Schore's groundbreaking work, this book details how the right brain―the psychobiological locus of Freud's unconscious mind―plays a fundamental role in the early origin of human nature (the general characteristics and feelings attributed to human beings). The early developing right brain not only grounds our bodily-based subjective experience of the world, but also allows us to make sense of it.

Have you ever asked yourself… Why do I feel confused or guilty after certain conversations, even when I did nothing wrong? How did my confidence erode so slowly that I barely noticed it happening? Why do I keep doubting my own perceptions while someone else seems so certain? It often starts subtly — a conversation that leaves you uneasy, a relationship where you’re always explaining or apologizing, and a sense that your reality is slowly shifting.

Why do we cross our fingers, avoid walking under ladders, or whisper “knock on wood” after saying something hopeful? Even in a modern world of science and logic, little rituals like these continue to shape our daily lives. We laugh at them, shrug them off, and sometimes do them without even thinking. But behind every quirky superstition lies something deeper: a glimpse into how the human brain works, how culture shapes belief, and how we cope with uncertainty.

Escrito com clareza e graça, este livro revoluciona as relações entre mente e corpo, razão e emoção, ao inverter a famosa proposição cartesiana "penso, logo existo" para "existo (e sinto), logo penso".Para pensar bem e tomar decisões corretas é preciso manter a cabeça fria e afastar todos os sentimentos e emoções, certo? Errado. Neste livro surpreendente e polêmico, o neurologista António Damásio mostra como, na verdade, a ausência de emoção e sentimento pode destruir a racionalidade.

You sit down to focus and your mind fractures. One thought becomes five. A decision becomes a debate. A simple task turns into a mental labyrinth. You replay conversations, anticipate outcomes, and rehearse failures that haven’t happened. You’re busy thinking yet nothing moves forward. The worst part? It feels productive. But it’s not. Overthinking isn’t insightful. It’s a neurological loop masquerading as problem-solving and it quietly drains your energy, confidence, and direction.

Have you ever been absolutely certain you “knew it all along”? Or found yourself buying something you didn’t really need just because it was on sale?
