Things I Didn't Know (10) - Paul D. Lowe & Sergei Turkov

On this episode of the World Game-Changers podcast Paul talks to Sergei Turkov about the things he didn’t know that he now knows and thinks the world should know. KEY TAKEAWAYS There’s a hidden history in every object that tells its true story. For example, why is the pencil you’re holding yellow? Most people don’t know why, but in the 19th century graphite came from China and American pencil makers painted them yellow to symbolise this. We should be curious and learn why things are the way they are. Research shows that giving to others activates the parts of the brain that makes you happy and more productive. It is what helps us to move forwards. A certain level of income doesn’t give you a significant boost of happiness, the biggest thing that helps us to move forward is relationship, then gratitude, flow, and helping others. We have to find and move with the right people who fill the gaps that we lack otherwise it’s challenging and complicated to move forward and evaluate which gaps we have in our flow. BEST MOMENTS ‘The qwerty keyboard is laid out like it is to avoid jamming in typewriters and to stop the operators from typing too quickly.’ ‘Helping others is one of the keys to making you happy.’ ‘Be kind to other people, it brings you much more back.
