Mindfully Conscious started to inspire people to live more consciously and purposefully by gaining a better understanding of how their mind works. By exploring the potential of your mind, and making you aware of the tricks it plays on you, we can reframe our thinking to embrace ourselves as we are and take control of our lives and destinies. I want everyone who reads this blog to take away immediately applicable knowledge and tips that they can use to improve, better, and grow in ways that are meaningful to them – whether it be professional, romantic, personal, or spiritual – while understanding why their brain works that way.
This blog is written in a way that is accessible to everyone, but backed by science to give credibility to the ideas presented. The science may change over time that explains the concepts about how our mind and brain works, but the concepts will remain the same and are timeless because they relate to the very thing that makes us human – our mind.
My name is Jorge Quintero. I’m 24 years old, and I currently work as a technical sales engineer, selling to and supporting hospitals that perform a specific kind of brain surgery called Deep Brain Stimulation. As I started interacting with neurosurgeons, learning more about the brain, and hanging out in hospitals more, I became more intrigued by the one organ that everyone seems to know very little about. I decided to create a blog that would allow me to learn more about the brain, but also create something that would inspire myself and others. That’s how this blog got started.
My other areas of interest include entrepreneurship, personal development, reading, and art (both music and drawing/painting). To an extent, all of these interests will be represented in my work – from the design of the page, to the content I write up. I really hope you enjoy this blog and give me feedback about how to make it better!
