Try the following ideas for boosting your intelligence:

25

1. Do brain teasers.

Doing brain teasers and puzzles might not seem like much work, but it’s actually exercising important parts of the brain.

2. Study.

Regardless of which subject you choose, continued study will increase your knowledge.

3. Get your heart rate up.

Exercise increases blood flow to the brain. A workout helps to keep your mind in shape as well as your body.

4. Avoid boredom.

Boredom doesn’t use your brain at all! If you’re bored, you should immediately ask yourself why and come up with an activity to do.

5. Get enough sleep.

Sleep is crucial to brain function. If you lack sleep, you’ll be unable to think clearly.

6. Eat a balanced diet.

What you put into your body is very important. Eating balanced meals of vegetables, complex carbohydrates, and lean protein will help your mind operate optimally.

7. Exercise your memory.

Recall is an important part of intelligence. This is one area in which practice will take you far!

8. Believe in yourself.

Before you can be truly helped by any action, you must first believe that that you can achieve bigger and better things.

Reading is a great way of learning and boosting intelligence. You don’t have to seek out something difficult. Even reading something simple will increase your brain activity.

9. Read.

10. Write.

Engage in a writing exercise and get away from the computer for a while. Writing helps keep you sharp, and lets you use the fluency with language that you gain from reading.

11. Play video games.

Video games may seem like all fun, but they can help with memory and reflexes. Puzzle games such as Tetris will also give you added benefits.

12. Take an IQ test.

You can periodically take an IQ test to see where you stand on the intelligence scale. However, don’t put too much stock in this number because there are many types of intelligence that aren’t quantifiable on this scale.

13. Listen to classical music.

The “Mozart Effect” has shown that classical music can help you learn.

14. Watch less TV.

You can watch some of your favorite shows, but spending your life in front of the TV won’t enhance your intelligence one bit!

15. Pay attention to smells.

There’s a huge connection between smells and memory. Pay attention to how things smell and see what kinds of connections you can make.

16. Eat more complex carbohydrates.

Complex carbohydrates are good for your body and help you think.

17. Practice.

Try engaging in one of these exercises every day. Keep using your mind because practice does make perfect.

18. Improve your confidence.

Pay attention to your self-esteem. If you lack confidence, you might stop trying. If you stop trying, you won’t increase your intelligence even though you have the ability to do so.

19. Listen to others.

There’s a lot you can learn simply by listening.

20. Eat fish.

There are many health benefits to eating fish or taking fish oil supplements. One commonly cited benefit is an increase in brain function.

21. Avoid arguing.

While discussions, even heated ones, can help increase intellect, arguing rarely helps.

Instead, it may make it more difficult for you to see things from other points of view. This, in turn, weakens your critical thinking ability, a key component of intelligence.

22. Set aside time for reflection.

Take time at the end of each day to consider what went on during the day and what progress you made.

23. Develop your talents.

Focus on the things you’re good at and then expand to new areas of interest.

24. Practice problem solving.

Work specifically on your problem solving skills. Make up challenges and then try to find a solution.

25. Try prayer or meditation.

Prayer or meditation is a great way to observe and identify your individual thoughts.

Remember that there are many definitions of intelligence.

Everyone has their own special abilities and talents. As long as you work on developing yours, you’ll boost your intelligence.

Why Is The Number 26 So Significant When It Comes To Success In Life?

A few years ago, NASA conducted an experiment to test the physiological limits of people who were planning to go into outer space. The experiment was designed to uncover the long term effects of disorientation on the mind and body.

In the experiment, subjects were given convex glasses that they head to wear 24/7 for several weeks. These glasses made everything appear upside down. The goal was to monitor how these kinds of conditions would impact blood pressure, and other critical physiological functions.

During the experiment they discovered something shocking!

After a period of about 26 days (on average), each astronaut in the experiment experienced a "flip" in which their brains began translating everything "right side up". Their brains were literally re-wired after 26 days. They went on to determine that this was the average length of time to implement any fundamental change into a human being.

Imagine the amazing possibilities you can create for yourself with just 26 days of commitment to your own personal growth and development?

That is exactly what I want to give you right now. By simply entering your name and email address below, you will get access to 26 consecutive days of powerful personal growth strategies that you can use to literally change your life!

That's right, just like the astronauts in the experiment; you can make permanent changes that will amaze everyone in your life INCLUDING YOU. Sign up now and make today the first day of the new you!
