We are Asher and Robert, hosts of the podcast Learning To Live (LTL).

Each episode breaks down different schools of thought across health, performance, philosophy, and personal development to understand what actually works.

Our goal is to demystify the black box of “fulfillment” by actively implementing what we learn into our own lives, and sharing the results honestly, regardless of outcome.

As two guys in our early 20’s, we don’t have the answers, but through self-experimentation, research, and conversation, we hope to document our authentic struggle and progress.

    In this episode of Learning To Live, we dive into the importance of attention.

    We break down our experimental results of our no phones challenge and social media detox. We discuss our reactions to the "Brain Rot Emergency" episode of the Diary of a CEO podcast, which is centered around attention spans, loneliness, and the growing impact of technology on our lives. We also share our thoughts on "Deep Work" by Cal Newport and look into how we can harness the skill of focus as a means of fulfilment.

    Topics covered in this episode:

    • What actually happened after 3 weeks without unessential screen time

    • Figuring out how to live a meaningful life in a world designed to distract us.

    • How attention and “Deep Work” shape the person you become

    • Why environmental design is key to overcoming "willpower" challenges

  • We Learned How Phones Hijack Our Brains | Ep. 2

    We Learned How Phones Hijack Our Brains | Ep. 2
    Mar 9 2026

    Are phones hijacking your brain?

    In this episode of Learning To Live, we dive into one of the biggest problems facing our generation: screen addiction.

    We break down the research behind dopamine, attention, motivation, and the reward systems in your brain, and explore why phones and social media are so hard to put down. From Instagram reels and YouTube shorts to doom scrolling, we examine how modern technology is designed to capture attention, and what it might be doing to our focus, sleep, and overall well-being.

    We’re experimenting with reducing our own phone usage to zero and redesigning our environments to see what actually works and how we change.

    Topics we explore in this episode:

    • Why phones feel addictive

    • Dopaminergic reward systems

    • How short-form content rewires attention

    • The impact of screen time on focus, productivity, and sleep

    • The role of escapism and emotional numbing through technology

    • Why willpower alone often fails when it comes to screen time

    • How environment design might be the real solution
