Boaler explains that scientists and educators have long believed that a person\u2019s mental capacity is a fixed quantity that is set in stone early in life, and certainly by adulthood. Instead, we now understand that the human brain is constantly forming, rearranging, and discarding neural pathways to incorporate new information and skills. As a result, <strong>your brain never stops changing,<\/strong> and the belief that you have a built-in aptitude for certain skills or a set level of intelligence is now considered nonsense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of what we now know about the brain, Boaler reiterates that <strong>anyone can keep on learning<\/strong>\u2014<strong>forming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/creating-new-neural-pathways\/\">new neural pathways<\/a>, adopting new skills, and exploring fields of knowledge at any time in life.<\/strong> Implementing this idea not only helps students in school but also helps adults. Adopting the belief that you can always learn new things can help alleviate the mental decline that many people fear as they age. Recognizing that having difficulties is part of the learning process also frees you from the burden of always having to be right. When you accept that you don\u2019t always have to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/becoming-an-expert\/\">be an expert<\/a> and that not understanding something right away isn\u2019t shameful, it lets you open up and ask others for help\u2014which expands both your mind and your circle of support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Learning Opportunities for Adults<\/strong><br><br>The difference between childhood and adult learning is that unless you\u2019re assigned training by your employer, your learning as an adult is entirely self-motivated. However, it\u2019s been shown that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2014\/06\/140617093221.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">self-directed learning greatly boosts your overall well-being<\/a>.

Various types of <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.org\/articles\/What_are_Popular_Types_of_Adult_Education_and_Continuing_Education_Courses.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">continuing education courses<\/a> can give you the training and certifications you\u2019d need to explore a change in career.<br><br>You may even consider enrolling in college and earning a degree, whether or not you have one already.
