FORGE: to form or make, especially by concentrated effort.
FORGE: to form by heating and hammering; beat into shape.
You WILL change the neural network of your brain as you respond to your life’s experiences. As you learn new things (especially with repetition), your brain will grow and reorganize itself accordingly. Teachers/parents need to teach neuroplasticity and students need to embrace it. We know that people become their habits, but students need to understand that habits will become more efficient due to anatomical changes in the brain as learning and habit-forming take place. The more that students embrace obstacles/hurdles, the more they will be prepared for it in the future. This is because practicing “Hazard Zet Forward” will physiologically change their brains to be able to handle challenges better over time.
