20181003 SAVERS on HUMPDAY/WEDNESDAY

SILENCE

Lay in bed, tried to silence my brain for 60 seconds.  Does counting to 60, 10 seconds on each finger, 6 fingers count?  I suppose, since it's relatively automatic by now.  I've trained my brain & fingers to approximate 60 seconds.

VISUALIZATION

I'm hoping I'll be AT OR BELOW 185 this morning.  We shall see:

READING, WRITING

Read for 60 seconds in SAPIENS.

The author (Harari) notes, in introducing the idea that there were "affluent" groups even 30K years ago, that early social groups had MANY MORE members than humans.  Example:  New Zealand has 5 million people, but 50 million sheep.  The exception to this is the dog:  Canines were domesticated sometime soon after the Agricultural Revolution.

(The truth is, I don't recall what the author said about this; only that he made a point of saying that the dog was the exception to the "rule" of something or other.  Oh well.)
