Is there anything you wish you had learned more about in school?

For me, without a doubt:

Neuroplasticity.

The incredible feature that allows our nervous system to change in response to experience.

I’m convinced I would have approached studying and learning very differently (and appreciated my young, plastic brain a lot more!).

We’re Designed To Change

Neuroplasticity is one of the most amazing yet underrated aspects of our biology.

It’s the biological equivalent of having a Growth Mindset: with hard work and good strategies, you can change the physical circuitry of your brain.

Because here’s the thing:

All of us are born with a nervous system that isn’t just capable of change but is designed to change.

This allows us to think differently, learn new things, forget painful experiences, and adapt to practically anything life throws at us.
