This is because in order for the brain to serve up insight into our conscious awareness, it needs a positive, calm environment where our attention is broader and where we are less focused. FMRI (Functional magnetic resonance imaging) scans of the brain reveal that insight comes from a different part of the brain than analysis. Insight can be developed and even mastered. In fact, a large part of my Courageous Leadership Coaching and Consulting platform is centered on providing and provoking insight. The brain treats uncertainty like a fire; setting off alarms in our fear networks. We close down, can get defensive and our ability to think clearly goes out the window. Cortisol, the stress hormone, can hold us hostage and depending on how long we dwell in uncertainty, can keep us there for days or even weeks."}
