222 - The Power of Surprise - Michael Rousell
from You Are Not So Smart · host You Are Not So Smart
Not all surprises trigger change, but almost all change is triggered by surprise. In this episode, Micheal Rousell, author of The Power of Surprise, explains the science of surprise at the level of neurons and brain structures, and then talk about how surprises often lead to the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves, the different personal narratives that guide our behaviors and motivations and goals, and, perhaps most importantly, our willingness to be surprised again so that we can change and grow.Patreon: http://patreon.com/youarenotsosmart Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
