Our brains can’t multitask
Despite the common belief that humans are capable of multitasking, our brains are actually not designed to do two tasks at once. When we try to multitask, our brain switches back and forth between tasks, leading to decreased efficiency and productivity.
Our brains are wired to notice patterns
Our brains are constantly seeking patterns in the world around us, and we are more likely to remember information that fits into a pattern or structure.
Our brains are constantly rewiring themselves
The process of neuroplasticity allows our brains to continuously change and adapt in response to new experiences and learning.
Our brains are more active when we’re sleeping
During sleep, our brains are still active and performing important functions such as consolidation of memories, regulation of emotions, and processing of information.
We have a biased memory
Our memories are not perfect and can be influenced by a variety of factors, including our emotions, expectations, and beliefs. This can lead to a phenomenon known as “memory distortion,” where our memories of events may not be completely accurate.
We are more likely to remember things that are unique or unusual
Our brains are more likely to pay attention to and remember information that stands out as being unusual or unique.
Our brains are more receptive to learning when we’re in a positive mood
Our emotions have a powerful influence on our ability to learn and retain information. When we are in a positive mood, our brains are more receptive to new information and more likely to retain it.
We are more likely to believe information that confirms our existing beliefs
Our beliefs and biases can influence how we interpret and remember new information, leading us to more easily accept information that confirms our preexisting beliefs and to be more skeptical of information that contradicts them.
