Our brains really aren’t designed for the 21st century.
In a world of hostile tribes and saber toothed tigers, jumping to conclusions about what is safe is a useful survival strategy.
But what happens when our world changes to a pretty safe place (mostly)? We keep responding as though survival was the only thing we have to think about.

- exploring our world
- expanding what’s possible for us
- knowing who we are and what we like
- increasing our capabilities and skills
Nope – our number one thing is still at some basic level staying safe.
