An introduction and summary of "Consciousness Demystified" By Todd E. Feinberg, Jon M. Mallatt 2018 Demystifying consciousness: how subjective experience can be explained by natural brain and evolutionary processes.Consciousness is often considered a mystery. How can the seemingly immaterial experience of consciousness be explained by the material neurons of the brain? There seems to be an unbridgeable gap between understanding the brain as an objectively observed biological organ and accounting for the subjective experiences that come from the brain (and life processes).

8' - The Information Philosopher
This excerpt from The Information Philosopher by John L. Casti explores the philosophical problem of free will by examining the history of the concept, from ancient Greek philosophers like Aristotle and Epicurus to modern scientists like Albert Einstein and John Searle. The book focuses on the interplay between determinism and indeterminism in the universe, arguing that quantum indeterminacy, the inherent randomness of the quantum world, plays a crucial role in the creation of information structures that are essential to human freedom. The author proposes a two-stage model of free will, in which the first stage involves the random generation of alter...

Forward Momentum is back with Episode 4! Following Episode 3, which explored the Paul Newman Rolex Daytona and its sale for a record setting $17.8 million dollars in 2017, it seemed appropriate to take a deeper look at Rolex and understand what the brand means for motorsport and for the watch industry. The importance of Rolex cannot be understated. The brand's presence in global motorsport should be understood in a historical and modern context of Rolex. There are many facets to the business that demonstrate why Rolex is such a powerhouse. I was also able to ask Josh Srolovitz, Director of Trading at...

Episode 3: Paul Newman, Paul Boutros, and the Rolex that Changed the Collecting Landscape
On the 26th of October, 2017, a watch auction took place in New York City. Watch auctions happen quarterly around the globe, focusing Primarily on Hong Kong, Geneva, Switzerland, and New York City. This watch auction was different. It featured a very special watch, a watch owned by Paul Newman - Yes, that Paul Newman - movie star, race car driver, and creator of the wall of salad dressings at your local supermarket. Inscribed on the case back was “Drive Carefully Me” - a love note of sorts from his wife Joanne Woodward. There was nothing special about this watch - it...

Episode 2: The Drivers as Style Icons
Welcome back to Forward Momentum! In this episode, we dive deep on the drivers as the style icons and as aspirational characters, the world of Formula 1, and its parallels in the luxury world. And just how that curated aura of Formula 1 can parallel the watch market. Please note that in the intro I reference the McLaren signing of Oscar Piastri and getting back to racing at Spa. The Belgian Grand Prix did occur last weekend and I thought I would get this episode out before the race weekend, I was unable to, but I am certain there is more n...

Healing burnout through creativity with Kara Guilfoyle
I’m as guilty as anyone else of saying that I value creativity, but then as soon as life gets busy, it’s the first thing I throw on the backburner. It doesn’t help that many of us got the message (from our parents, from society at large, from wherever) that creativity in adulthood is kind of frivolous and should, at best, be relegated to a side hobby. Whenever I find myself ignoring my creative side in favor of more “productive” things, I try to remember this quote from Brené Brown: ...

BEVERLEY SEARLE Is Often Asked, ‘What Made You Go To University At 48, Then Spend 9 Years Getting 4 Degrees’ - Attempted Rape, And Horrendous Abuse As A Child, Did. - Mature Preneurs Talk
Beverley became determined to dedicate her life’s work to alleviating mental disorders caused by trauma; now she’s achieved that with documented scientific evidence being released now. The attempted rape experience triggered off flashbacks of horrendous abuse as a child, which had been locked away in her deep sub-conscious. Those flashbacks caused extreme anxiety/panic/depression; the psychiatrists said she was hallucinating and prescribed heavy medication. Finally able to get collaboration for some of her flashbacks, she knew what she saw was real, but the medical model could not provide answers, and this became the trigger to search for...
