Well.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
I read this this morning, and it's like, Okay, this
happens to me all the time. I'm home a lot
by myself with my dog, and I've got headphones, and
I'm walking into every room and I smoke pot too,
and I always think that maybe it's because I'm smoking
pot that I'm doing it. I mean, all it doesn't
It happens sometimes when I'm not And it's like, why
did I come in this room?
Speaker 3 (00:23):
I didn't not only I came.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
All the way downstairs for him man, And now I'm
standing here like a fool with nobody to watch. I'm
thinking the only thing seen me is the indoor ring

He's a neuro cognitive neuroscientist named Christian Jarrett.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
It's got a name. It's called the doorway effect.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Essentially, your brain resets every time you go to new boundaries,
whether they say new boundary, yeah, pass through a doorway
or an errand you might leave something in the other
room that you were thinking about because of the new surroundings.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
Oh it's brighter. Oh there's the refiler ador. Oh yeah,
so you're coming. If you're coming from all the way upstairs,
you have no chance. You're going to lots of changes.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Jared says, because of the potential hack here, you might
be able to do it. He says, try to stay
focused on your purpose.

go to the kitchen, get some ice from a soda.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Try to stay focused on your purpose. That's my purpose,
right though.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
As you're passing through the doorway, you gotta be thinking
about why you're gonna go get that ice for your
your coke zero.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
To remind yourself. Yeah, you enter a new area.
Speaker 1 (01:45):

I'm gonna make a note for myself from the living
room of the kitchen.
Speaker 3 (01:50):

Speaker 4 (01:53):
I feel like they've seen some notes before, not in
real life, but maybe in that.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
In that movie where what's his name forget all wants
to forget not.
