 "Every man can,
if he so desires,
become
the sculptor of
his own brain"

 A big component
of our lifelong
brain health and development
depends on what we do
with our brains.
Our own actions,
not only our genes,
influence our lives
to a large extent.
Genes predispose us,
not determine our fates.

 Exercising
our brains
systematically
is as important as
exercising our bodies

 Learning is critical at all ages,
not only in the school environment.
We have brains
precisely in order to be able to learn,
to adapt to new environments.
This is essential throughout life,
not just in school.
We now know that every brain
can change, at any age.
There is really no upper limit
on learning
since the brain neurons
seem to be capable of growing
new connections
whenever they are used
repeatedly.

 I think all of us
need to develop
the capacity to self-motivate ourselves.
One way to do that is to
search for those meaningful
contact points and bridges,
between what we want to learn
and what we already know.
When we do so,
we are cultivating
our own neuronal networks.
We become our own gardeners.
