<h2>Anne-Laure Le Cunff: Tiny Experiments</h2>
<p>Anne-Laure Le Cunff is an award-winning neuroscientist, entrepreneur, and writer. She is the founder of Ness Labs and author of its widely read newsletter, a researcher at the ADHD Research Lab, and an advisor for the Applied Neuroscience Association. She is the author of <a href="https://bookshop.org/a/90226/9780593715130">Tiny Experiments: How to Live Freely in a Goal-Obsessed World</a>*.</p>
<p>We all get into a rut sometimes. Once we notice we’re in one, our tendency is to work really hard to get out of it. In this conversation, Anne-Laure and I explore how starting with something tiny is often the better bet.</p>
<h3>Key Points</h3>
<ul>
<li>SMART goals assume we know exactly where we’re heading. Most of the time, that’s not clear.</li>
<li>A tiny experiment focuses on outputs instead of outcomes.</li>
<li>To build more comfort with uncertainty, find one small place to experiment.</li>
<li>Our brain uses growth loops to constantly adjust our trajectory. We don’t go in circles; we grow in circles.</li>
<li>Improving growth isn’t about knowledge or skill, it’s thinking about your thinking, questioning your responses, and knowing your mind.</li>
<li>A simple, 5-minute tool is Plus Minus Next. It surfaces what’s working, what’s not, and your next steps.</li>
