2 years ago, I read the book "The brain that changes itself" by Norman Doidge. I've been interested by behavioral psychology and it's truly a great book about how the mind works, very mind blowing. The idea behind the book is that our brain is plastic, and never stop growing. There is a rule about the mind in the book which is "neurons that fire together wire together". It means that if you stop using your brain, you will be less intelligent, more lazy,etc. On the opposite if you use it wisely, exercise, build new skills, practice different things, your brain will be smarter and new neural pathways will grow. It is truly a great book and the science of neuroplasticity is very ground breaking. Beware with laziness, everytime you don't do something or quit, it reinforces the habit.
It is never too late to change your habits. Neuroplasticity can lead you to greater success in work and life. But you can't change overnight, it takes deliberate practice. Repeated practice. It took years to develop your ways of acting and thought process, so it will take time to form new healthy habits, just as it took time to master the guitar for me. You are your brain, so take good care of it. I highly recommend you read the book. It's a little challenging though.
