Mindset Makeover

Sometimes the most common things surrounding us are the hardest to notice.

While the thinking brain comfortably analyses the situation, your emotional brain already responded to the situation. I said responded, not resolved

instead of telling yourself “I am angry” say “I feel anger.” You are not the human form of anger

one you should use to keep track of your thoughts and actions.

Humans are thinking beings. This ability differentiates us from other species

The more you practice something, the stronger and more numerous your neural connections will get. Strong connections are the deal-breakers in brain changes. The more you practice playing the piano, for example, the more connections are added to that neural activity (elements like movement and cognitive patterns). People say “repetition is the mother of knowledge” for a reason

Others, however, say that you should sit down to learn even if you aren’t in the mood for it, and if you do it resiliently, somewhere in the process of learning you’ll actually get into the mood.

You’ll learn much quicker and more efficiently if you concentrate all your brainpower into those hours when you’re the most motivated and mentally active

More is more
The harder you try to change something, the better the brain change will be. Stay in the moment, focus on your task, try to learn with all your might and see that the brain will aid you to make an even bigger change

The moody brain
Your brain change depends on your mood. Or rather, it changes depending on your brain’s mood. Or both of your moods. In other words, when you are in a focused, engaged, and motivated mood, your brain will release the necessary neurochemicals to make the brain changes happen. But when you’re distracted or demotivated, your neuroplastic change will stay on stand-by mode.
