The cognitive curl methodology emerged from my diverse background as a trader, athlete, coach, student, and parent. I draw inspiration from the clarity of physical journeys to metaphorically explain mental growth. While physical progress is visible and straightforward, cognitive and emotional development require a nuanced perspective.
This methodology focuses on fostering systematic strength by understanding mental interconnectivity and purposefully directing actions toward desired outcomes.
I utilize the curl because in my own physical and cognitive experience I cared only about flexing — utilizing the tension of my future and past to motivate my progress, never learning to see the present. I realized it was this unwillingness to extend and release that was causing side effects that started impeding on my effectiveness, well being and growth. I saw my life as one movement, not two.
