Our brains our designed to learn the best when we're operating at the edge of our abilities, stretched outside of our comfort zones, and when we're making a lot of mistakes.

Understanding how the brain works is the key to becoming a master learner - aka "Butt Kicker." This understanding helps to foster a growth mindset, one of the most important keys to development.

Most of us struggle with learning because of our fear of failure, looking bad, and resistance to change. This mostly comes from a part of the brain called the amygdala aka "The Lizard Brain." The Lizard Brain acts as an internal force that creates a fixed mindset.

As Seth Godin explains, the Lizard Brain is the brain of a wild animal. It's hardwired to seek safety, avoid risks, and to fit in. This used to protect us back in caveman times, but now it keeps us from learning as much as we could.

As much as we would like to...we can't kill the Lizard Brain (it will always be around). However, we can learn to dance with it and use it as a compass to show that we're about to do something great.

We would like to give a HUGE shout out to Seth Godin for helping us out with the interview. He's been one of our biggest inspirations through all of this and it was an absolute honor to speak with him. Thanks Seth!
