neuroscientist called Norman Doidge wrote about something he called the plastic paradox. Neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to change and rewire, is a double-edged thing. Yes, it allows your brain to build stronger, faster pathways. But it will build them around whatever you're practising. If you're practising bad habits every day with no feedback or correction, you're just getting faster and more efficient at your current level. Your bad habits become deeply wired. You don't improve. You just become a more automatic version of where you already are.
