The CPU of your Neck Top Network of 100 billion neurons Each neuron having 50,000 dendrites Over 2 billion bytes of synapses Memory: 10,000 trillion bytes Speed: 1,000,000 trillion ops per second* *Source: Software for your brain by Michael Hewitt-Gleeson
Do you program your Neck-top • Watch your actions. • How many inputs and outputs does your neck-top take to do a simple action • Have you thought about the nature of ‘planning’ and ‘strategies’ • Why do you brain-storm • Why do you sleep…chill out…take a break…a sabbatical…
Plato Truth Virus • There is an absolute truth • There is only one right way of doing things • I am always right because Plato was right
Anti-PTV • Start, Do, Notice, Think (SDNT) • Repeat this now 10 times • Use it the moment you feel you are troubled by PTV • The code for SDNT • To s :act that moment; • To d :question (4Ws, 1H); • To n :watch for reaction; • To t :learn from the reaction
Software for the brain • What is your Current View Situation (CVS) • Can there be a Better View Situation (BVS) • Remember this: CVS#BVS • Move from CVSTOBVS • Repeat this ten times: CVSTOBVS
Code for BVSTOCVS • QRH • Quality :add value • Recognise :give value to what you see • Humour :use humour to break the monotony • PRR • Practice :continuous • Repeat : continuous • Rehearse :well
Take home • Our ills are from the PTV • Beat this PTV • Repeat: Start, DO, Notice, Think (SDNT) • Remember BVS is 10x greater than CVS • Move from CVSTOBVS • Repeat CVSTOBVS
