Someone posted this video on my Facebook page and I believe it holds a fundamental truth about habits and instincts.
As I posted a while back, we all have a lot to learn about the way we learn to ride a bicycle. Today’s experts will all tell you that taking off the pedals will accelerate the learning dramatically … most can learn to ride in just a few minutes when you do that.
However, watch this video and realize that once you learn, your brain is wired up backwards to ride this bike. It is almost impossible to unlearn and relearn. Click here to view the video.
How many of today’s challenges are made worse because our brains are wired up from previous points of view?
I am not sure, but I would suspect we have a lot to learn from Millennials who seem to see things very differently than we do.
In fact, this election cycle is likely to reveal a lot about the way they are wired.
They seem to walk to the beat of a different drummer.
I just hope it is not a Pied Piper.
Now that will be the subject of another blog for sure.
Thanks for being part of my journey through all this.
