Andrew Huberman, Ph.D., a neuroscientist and tenured professor in the department of neurobiology and by courtesy, psychiatry, and behavioral sciences at Stanford School of Medicine, was asked on The Nine Club podcast about his best advice for getting fit and healthy.
In response, he prefaced his suggestions, telling the hosts: “People ask me this kind of stuff all the time. What do I do? How do I sleep better? How do I stop stressing? Usually, I find that people are not serious. Meaning, they want an answer, but they don’t want to do the work.”
Huberman was talking about health and fitness at an individual level, but this is a problem in general in society. Individuals, companies, governments, and other stakeholders don’t want to do what is needed to address the major societal challenges.

cultivated spontaneity. It is the art of sailing, rather the art of rowing.’
Instead, one lunatic at the head of an exceptional long table in Russia decided to launch a “special military operation” – not a war, repeat, not a war – against Ukraine.

After almost two years of battling a global pandemic, one could be forgiven for thinking that we might emerge as a species united by an increased sense of the value of life. Wishful thinking.
Instead, one lunatic at the head of an exceptional long table in Russia decided to launch a “special military operation” – not a war, repeat, not a war – against Ukraine.
The ESG Factor Magazine – Q1 2022
We are failing on the sustainable development goals, maintaining a long run of failure when it comes to sustainability. But as Sartre said ‘there is no hope except in action’. Individually, we have to do the best we can to make a positive impact in the short time we are here. Yes, greenwashing is a problem, but there is also a lot of people working towards a better world, as hard as it might be.
