If you understand that it's actually physical work, when you're changing something, when you're striving for something, you're actually connecting up neurons or nerve cells in your brain that weren't connected previously. You may even be growing new nerve cells from little embryonic baby nerve cells that then connect up with ones that already exist.

You may even be growing new nerve cells from little embryonic baby nerve cells that then connect up with ones that already exist.

And you may also be adding an insulating coat around existing neural pathways to make them faster, to make them more efficient. So the patient's piece is because a lot of hard work goes on, You know, that feeling of I'm trying to manifest, but nothing's happening.

That's in the patient's piece, because when you get to a critical mass of neurons that have created a new pathway that is stronger than the pathway you had before. So let's say it's just the things like that never happened for me pathway changes to a, well, actually I've seen Jay do it. So maybe it could happen for me pathway. That takes a lot of effort.

But once you get to the critical mass of enough neurons, suddenly it feels like everything's easy and everything's manifesting. And I do feel like people have to get a taste of that before, you know, at least once with a quick win to have the courage to take it to the next level.

So the first one is myelination and anyone who does a lot of sport who repeats a certain, you know, weight training will understand that that's what's happening in their muscles. You know, when I said, you know, you come here pretty much every day and you sit with someone and you interview them and you're really great at asking questions.

That's like something you're super good at that because you repeat it, it becomes like a superpower. And that means that what's happening there is myelination. So myelin is a fatty substance that coats some neural pathways and those pathways become fast pathways. Now, there's a reason from evolution why we have some fast pathways and some slow pathways.

And the reason is that if you put your hand in the fire, your reflex to snatch your hand out is a fast pathway. But your pain reflex is a slow pathway, because if you were incapacitated by pain, the minute you put your hand in the fire, you wouldn't be able to get away from it. One of the mechanisms of neuroplasticity is becoming even better at something that you're really good at.

One of the mechanisms of neuroplasticity is becoming even better at something that you're really good at.

And that's happened through myelination. The most common one, which is something that you're quite good at, but if you had loads of time, you could become really good at it, but you maybe don't have loads of time, happens through synaptic connection. So that's the one that can feel like quite hard work. But if you put in the effort, then you can change your brain.

So that means that neurons that already exist in the brain connect up with each other and start to form new pathways. And the third mechanism, which doesn't happen a lot in the adult brain, but it does happen around the hippocampus because we do lay down new memories in life, happens a lot in children's brains, is called neurogenesis.

And that is little embryonic nerve cells that float around in the brain actually becoming fully formed nerve cells, neurons, and connecting up through synaptic connection and maybe getting myelinated. And there's a factor, a growth factor that's involved in that, the embryonic cell becoming an adult cell, which is called BDNF or brain derived neurotrophic factor. And trophic means growth.
