ScaleUp Yourself: Resetting Homo Sapiens by Amelie de Marsily

Have you ever found yourself casually scrolling on Social Media, and realised astonished that a full hour has passed? Or lost patience during the most simple activities of your daily life which should not drive you up a wall like that? Or worse, have you ever found yourself making an impulsive decision which you later regret ?

The answer lies in understanding some of the basic wiring of our human species that in some ways is hindering us from fully leveraging the advancements reached in the 21st century. Has time come for a reset?
