Introduction to John Medina's Brain Rules book series
Great to see @BrainRulesBooks continue to have influence in disparate fields. Football coaches adapting these principles to help players learn systems. Only wish our schools would be as adaptive!
"One of the best decisions you can make as a coach... that's a great play but I don't know if we can handle it so let's not put it in." Chip Kelly staying late at the @NikeCoyFootball Las Vegas Clinic to answer questions & sharing why @UCLAFootball doesn't do long meetings.
I recently spoke with Dr. John Medina (@BrainRulesBooks) about why our brains, which still think it’s the Pleistocene era, perform so poorly in the modern workplace. We also consider what can be done about it. bit.ly/3ZC3c7z
Today I am sharing one of my favorite user manuals for your brain - @BrainRulesBooks by the amazing and talented Dr. John Medina! I fluctuate from highlighting every sentence to falling off my chair laughing. #Brain #Health #mentalhealth

Why do You Feel So Tired After Zoom Meetings?
Historically, people have done their best work—sometimes world-changing work—in their first few years after joining the workforce.
Individually, the worst kind of stress is the feeling that you have no control over the problem—you are helpless. #stress #brainrules
When you learn something, the wiring in your brain changes. #learning #brainrules
The brain is constantly learning things, so the brain is constantly rewiring itself. #learning #brainrules
The brain acts like a muscle: The more activity you do, the larger and more complex it can become. What you do in life physically changes what your brain looks like. You can wire and rewire your brain with the simple choice of which musical instrument you play. #brainrules
Even a cursory inspection of the data reveals remarkable variation in growth patterns from one person to the next. Whether examining toddlers or teenagers, different regions of the brain in different children develop at different rates.
Learning results in physical changes in the brain, and these changes are unique to each individual. Not even identical twins having identical experiences possess brains that wire themselves exactly the same way.
All else being equal, it has been known for many years that smaller, more intimate schools create better learning environments than megaplex houses of learning. Smaller is better because a teacher can deeply understand the individual needs of only so many students. #brainrules
Theory of Mind is the ability to understand the interior motivations of someone else and the ability to construct a predictable “theory of how their mind works.” These skills give teachers and managers critical knowledge about their students and employees. #brainrules
If you’re a manager, make a list of the cognitive strengths of your team. Assigning work projects based on an employee’s strengths may be critical to your group’s productivity. #brainrules
No two people’s brains store the same information in the same way in the same place. #learning #brainrules
