A letter to my 20 year old self in honor of my 30th birthday. And then a lesson on the brain.
Why do we doubt? Why do we want to stay comfortable? Why do we avoid things that are hard? And what about doing new things? Why do they feel so weird.
The neural pathways in our brain are created by a repetitive motion, action, or thought. The more we think something, the stronger that connection becomes and the harder it is to break them. The good news is, we can always create new neural pathways. We have the power when we realize we have the power to actually change our brain.
