The science behind high performance mindsets - I2i

The document discusses how the brain works and how to develop high performance mindsets. Some key points: - The brain contains over 1000 billion neurons connected in over 10.5 million km of pathways. Repeated and emotive experiences strengthen these connections through myelination. - Thoughts can change the brain's structure as we use the same pathways for thinking as for actions. Frequent and emotive visualization of goals and dreams builds strong neural pathways over time. - Developing goals that are specific, positive, believable, and broken into small achievable steps can make previously "impossible" dreams become "inevitable" through repetitive and emotive thought practice.
