Description
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewThis book provides an incredibly accurate and practical description of how our brain turns raw information into creative ideas to help us survive and thrive. We learn, we build beliefs, we turn them into memories, and then we go through life on autopilot. Those beliefs turn into biases that hinder our ability to be creative, productive, and happy. How do you get over these neurological roadblocks? Seek out surprises, because in those surprising moments both you and your brain have a golden opportunity to turn limiting beliefs and biases into a life filled with discovery and joy. Through delightful storytelling, the author brilliantly gives the reader new tools for using surprise strategically to create new life-enhancing experiences, avoiding destructive influences. A rare and enjoyably readable book on the neuroscience of personal transformation. Highly, highly recommended for anyone!
