Adult human brains have between 86-100 billion neurons and every single one is unique - like snowflakes! ❄️

We don't need to debate whether it's better to be a generalist or a specialist. The world needs both.

Specialists excel at zooming in. They see the details to deepen our knowledge.

Generalists excel at zooming out. They see around corners to broaden our view.

If you define yourself by your opinions, questioning them is a threat to your integrity.

If you see yourself as a curious person or a lifelong learner, changing your mind is a moment of growth.

Your subconscious mind can solve problems while you sleep:

Your mind keeps processing information and make connections even when you are not consciously aware of it.
