GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) is a hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels and appetite. It is released from the intestines in response to food intake and stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreas, which helps lower blood sugar levels.

In the context of weight management, GLP-1-based medications are used to help individuals with obesity or type 2 diabetes control their weight.

We tend to believe that working more inherently equals getting more done.

It overlooks the reality that what you're working on is 100 times more essential than how long you're working. It's pointless climbing a ladder faster if it's facing the wrong wall. That is the concept emphasized by the Pareto principle. ...
