Brain Tips for Entrepreneurs (SAFE-P)
As an entrepreneur, what is your greatest asset? Your creativity, your mood your life is affected by SAFE-P.
SAFE-P is a simple acronym I came up with so I could remember the five keys to keeping my best asset healthy and happy. . . . .
So what is your greatest asset that drives your creativity so you can change the world? Well it’s that tangled web or soup of chemistry and electricity called the brain – brain tips. Lot’s of things we know and lots of things we don’t know about the brain, however virtually all experts agree on the SAFE-P brain tips.
Brain tips are simple to do but just a simple not to do. Brain tips will make the difference on whether you perform better, worse or the same 1 year, 5 years and 10 years from now.
What amazes me is how much we push ourselves and in particular our brains to the limit and then wonder why we fall apart sometimes either running out of gas, getting depressed, losing creativity, loss of memory etc. The brain tips below are for those entrepreneurs that want to be performance at their best all the time and for a long time.
The reality is our body and our brains are physical objects (brain tips) that need to be maintained in order to function at peak performance. Dr. David Amen (M.D.) recommends the following to keep your mind in peak state.
Brain Tips for Entrepreneurs
Brain Tips 1 – Sleep
All experts agree that getting a minimum of seven hours of sleep a night consistently is necessary for optimum brain performance.
Brain Tips 3 – Activity
As entrepreneurs, we can sometimes get into a rut of doing the same repetitive things
again and again. Our brains are built to be stimulated, to solve problems to learn. Challenging your brain makes your brain work better. Work into your schedule brain strengthening activities, anything that involves learning new things or solving problems like taking a course, doing puzzles, learning a language, reading, etc.
Brain Tips 3 – Food
Eat a wide combination of the right foods (fruits, vegetables, lean meats). Minimize your consumption of fats, salt and sugar. It’s simple, get a calorie counter, get informed. A balanced diet is that is needed. You can eat it all. Just don’t eat a lot of it.
Brain Tips 4 – Exercise
Exercise is critical for that brain, body and chemistry combination. Exercising a minimum of four days a week and getting your heart rate up for a sustained period of 30 -45 minutes is a must. Throw in some strength exercises and you are good to go.
Brain Tips 5 – Positivity
If you find your brain in that negative thinking loop then do the following. Engage in social interaction with others (brain tips). Often we get inside of ourselves too much (the inner thinker) which makes it easy to for our subconscious to try and beat us down and feel sorry for ourselves. Get out out of yourself and interact with others.
Fish oil has been proven time and time again to improve brain function. Take a fish oil supplement daily. Finally, change your state with other external stimulus like scents (lavender) or your favorite song (positive songs only) or review your list of goals and afformations.
The key is to recognize when you are beating yourself down (brain tips) and to have an action plan you go to change your state from positive to negative.
I am sure you figured it out by now SAFE-P is an easy way to remember the list of brain tips above.
