Benefiting at work from Brain Based Insights

Why are people afraid to talk about their brains? Is it because they compare themselves to others, who are smarter in different ways? Maybe SAT or IQ scores zapped them when they most needed a break? Or do they view people in professional positions, such as doctors, professors or lawyers --  to be beyond their reach?
     Whatever the reason, many of us limit our mental possibilities and I’m sad to say high schools and college classes perpetuate these harmful misperceptions. The good news is that you can rewire your brain to create positive changes. More good news is that is doesn’t take grueling effort to increase you intelligence.
     Watch intelligent business people and you’ll soon pick up on the fact that they think differently. Instead of asking, “Is this or that possible,” they ask instead, “ How can I make this happen?”
     Instead of whining about problems they turn their attention to possibilities, and use facts to reel in winning results. Brain specialists would say, ”They build new neuron pathways to get more of what they want.”
     If feeling stupid is a learned behavior, and the experts agree it is, and if we can learn to replace losing patterns with extravagant gains the brain is wired to yield, what next? Any ideas…? How would you advise a person who whines lots to replace common mental misconceptions with life-changing facts about the human brain?
