Brain building at ASAP: Philosophy for learning
Brain Facts:
- Neurons grow every day
- Neurons become physically thick and dense as you learn new information
- Each time we study and revisit information, the neurons connect with one another.
- Its the connection of neurons which make it faster to recall information.
Instead of “I can’t” think to say “Not yet, but I can!” It’s possible to learn anything with effort and the right mindset.
Think of your brain as a muscle. Similar to how one must exercise to remain physically strong, you must exercise your brain with tutoring and studying to strengthen your knowledge.
Shift your mindset to shift your results.
