How To Optimize Cognition

[BlessedLion]

What are the best ways to have the clearest and sharpest mind possible? 

A few things i thought of 

 

Heavy metal detox

Great and consistent sleep

Focus deep work blocks , no distractions

Excercise

No caffeine, alcohol, porn, scrolling as it scatters the mind and nervous system

Walks and nature time

Solititude and staying away from Drama

Healhty whole foods, brain foods

 

Anything else?

I think your list covers most important ones. What I'd add is meditation with some concentration object, developed as a meta-skill that has positive effect on other things that assists cognition. Also maybe a deliberate practice into some challenging skill either deepening a current skill-set or taking up something new like musical instrument or drawing or something like that.

Full blood panel & work from there. Not just the normal stuff. Endocrinology in depth etc. the best suppliment is the one we are deficient in.

Sleep absolutely no.1

Every 45 minutes of focused work, 15 minutes light movement.

Zone 3/4/5 cardio regularly.

Creatine did crazy shit for my focus and overall awareness. YMMV 

Also my own secret best biohack weapon - placebo 💪
