275. Engines of Enthusiasm III: Attention and the Cortex
Update: 2025-11-24
Description
#275: In this episode, Sharif and Kevin explore how the cortex and attention form the capstone of motivation and enthusiasm. Together, they trace how meaning (the septum), willingness (the striatum), and focused presence (the cortex) work in harmony to create clarity, silence, and smoothness: the hallmarks of deep attention and flow. Kevin explains why distractions arise, what inner “friction” really signals, and how love and service fuel the brain’s attentional systems. This conversation offers a vivid look at how desire, silence, and love form a virtuous cycle in work and life.
