In a recent video, startup founder Erin Meryl McGurk shared her “absolute favorite concentration hack that I use whenever I need to focus,” along with the neuroscience behind why it works.

It’s called the 3-2-1 method, and it goes like this:

3 minutes of somewhat intense physical activity. It primes your body and brain for focus and relieves restlessness or fidgetiness.

2 minutes of brain-dump journaling to clear the mind.

1 minute of detailed planning about what you hope to accomplish during your focus time.

And then you’re off and running.

The sequence takes six minutes in total. “You might be thinking, Erin, six minutes is a really long time,” McGurk says. “If six minutes is going to allow you to concentrate for three hours… it’s worth the six minutes.”

Railway lines already occupy long stretches of land, so Belgium is exploring ways to make that space work twice. Solar panels can be installed above tracks, along railway corridors, and on tunnel structures, turning transport infrastructure into electricity-generating surfaces without requiring additional fields to be covered.

The idea is especially valuable in places where open land is limited or needed for farming, housing, and nature. By using areas that are already developed, solar projects can avoid some of the land-use conflicts that come with large ground-mounted solar farms. Electricity produced near railway infrastructure can potentially support stations, signaling systems, nearby buildings, or feed into the wider grid, depending on how each project is designed.

What makes the concept so practical is that it treats existing infrastructure as an energy asset rather than just a transport route. A tunnel roof or unused strip beside the tracks may receive hours of sunlight every day, even though the space has no agricultural purpose. Covering suitable surfaces with solar panels can therefore add renewable generation without sacrificing another piece of countryside. It is a simple but powerful idea: instead of always searching for new land for clean energy, make better use of the space cities and transport networks already occupy.
