Book summary of a 60 second leadership

How you doing, Fathead?

Fathead? 

We know what it means. But, according to the author, the real fatheads are everywhere, sometimes even in our own mirror. We all know overweight, obese or fat in terms of body structure but, what if we compare these to our minds. 

The constant overfeeding of our minds some good, some not, but always lots of it. How it can lead to what the author referred to as fathead. 

Fathead- Too much insignificant stuff clouding out the things that matter most.

Infobesity 🤔

Physical weight challenges are often blamed on the over ability of processed foods. It's too convenient and easy.

None of the food we eat just finds its way down our throat it always has a willing assistant. The same goes for our brains. The information, though sometimes more subtle is still given access by the owner. 

So, how do we get rid of this fathead syndrome? 

1) First, know that it matters. What we put in comes out whether good or bad.

2) We can choose environments and pathways that limit negative exposure.

3) Don't just block out the bad stuff, put in the good stuff. 

Get around people who's thinking stretches you to be better. 

Key Lesson:- The author encourages readers to be more conscious and aware of their mind. He advised us to be aware of the information we feed our mind. He also advises us to chose environments that limit the negative thinking.

Conclusions:- What we put in comes out. 

Find people with conversations that elevate your thinking. 

Get around good friends, mentors, teachers and coaches. 

If we are going to have the fat head, let's fatten it up with good stuff.
