Neuroplasticity involves both psychological and physiological work, not just psychological as commonly believed. Changing behavior is akin to creating a path in your brain, starting with flattening grass and progressing to a paved path.
Insights
- Neuroplasticity involves both psychological and physiological processes, challenging the common notion that it is solely psychological.
- Changing language to reframe challenges positively can enhance the learning experience, showcasing the powerful impact of mindset on skill acquisition and personal growth.

Recent questions
What is neuroplasticity?
Neuroplasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life.
How does changing behavior affect the brain?
Changing behavior creates new pathways in the brain, similar to forging a path from grass to pavement, through synapses and myelination.
Can reframing challenges positively impact learning?
Yes, reframing challenges positively can lead to a more enjoyable learning experience by changing the language around difficulties.
Do children and adults differ in neuroplasticity?
Children have more embryonic neurons, making it easier for them to learn multiple languages, while adults can still create new pathways through synaptic connections.
How do personal beliefs affect one's abilities?
Personal beliefs and narratives significantly impact one's abilities and potential, as seen in the example of overcoming the belief of not being creative. Reinforcing positive manifestations and achievements can help build confidence and belief in achieving larger goals.

Neuroplasticity: Physiological and Psychological Pathway Creation
- Neuroplasticity involves both psychological and physiological work, not just psychological as commonly believed.
- Changing behavior is akin to creating a path in your brain, starting with flattening grass and progressing to a paved path.
- Changing language around challenges can impact your experience; reframing difficulties positively can lead to a more enjoyable learning process.
- Building new pathways in the brain through synapses and myelination is akin to physical work, using up glucose and inducing neurogenesis.
- Children have more embryonic neurons, allowing them to learn multiple languages easily, while adults can still create new pathways through synaptic connections.
- Personal beliefs and narratives can significantly impact one's abilities and potential, as seen in the example of overcoming the belief of not being creative.
