Episode notes
Neuroplasticity and Focus
- Neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to change, is highly active during childhood and requires focus in adulthood.
- Intense focus triggers plasticity, but the actual rewiring happens during sleep or deep rest.
Brain Change Technique
- To change your brain, concentrate intensely on a behavior or thought, then release that concentration.
- This process, involving neurochemicals, marks synapses for change during rest.
Urgency and Plasticity
- The brain's plasticity is tied to a sense of urgency or strong incentive, whether positive or negative.
- Focus is key, as plasticity without a goal is like learning many languages at once but not mastering any.
