Mental Mosaic transforms ideas into tools for high-agency leaders.

Hi!

It’s Hari. I’m sending this from Japan! Any recommendations? Please comment away!

First, thank you for going along this journey. I deeply appreciate it. We have grown together, beginning from zero:

Many newsletters focus on selling you an AI-generated course, pushing you through an email funnel, or using clickbait (emotionally charged) headlines. Mental Mosaic gives you lifelong tools to navigate day-to-day problems at work and even in life. Each letter is thoroughly researched and carefully considered, drawing on decades of experience.

If someone is trying to build something or increase their influence in an organization, please share this with them.

On Space:

Spaced Repetition helps you recall concepts better.

Instead of cramming, you revisit an idea just as you’re about to forget it.
Each return strengthens the neural trace, making recall faster and more durable.

The timing matters more than the effort.
Short exposures, spaced over time, beat long sessions done once.

Learning isn’t built by intensity.
It’s built by return.

In the spirit of that, I’m sharing the key concepts of three of our most popular newsletters:

1. The Mathematics of Courage

2. Your Amygdala Is Running the Meeting

   

3. The Edit

Why mess with an Icon?

In a 2017 Harvard lecture, he revealed his core method:

“I was only interested in restraining myself and only editing it 3 percent.”
