How to Get Smarter: 10 Easy and Effective Ways to Improve Intellectual Performance

Hello, dear readers! Today we will talk about personal effectiveness. Have you noticed that with age it becomes more and more difficult to concentrate, study large amounts of information, think through possible scenarios, and so on? Yet in Forex you cannot do without it. And not only in Forex, but in everyday life as well. The 21st century is the information age.

How can you get smarter? How can you remove, or at least reduce, the "mental dulling" that shows up during long work sessions?

I am not going to make you solve logic puzzles, mentally toss numbered balls around, and the like. Instead, I will share ten simple and effective ways to improve mental performance, and you can start using them today. Without straining too much.

I use the tips below myself in practice. And they really help. Perhaps they will not suit everyone, but these methods really do work. Tested on myself.

Make a list of ABSOLUTELY all your tasks. Not only work-related ones, but also plans such as where to go, what to buy, taking a summer vacation, changing the spark plugs on your iron horse, collecting a long-standing debt from a neighbor, reading the book "Think and Grow Rich"... In short, absolutely EVERYTHING.

Some will say, "I remember everything anyway!" I do not doubt it. I have a good memory too. But just try it: making a to-do list takes about fifteen minutes. When you move all your tasks from your head onto paper, or better yet into a computer document, you will feel enormous relief. Life will become easier, your head will clear, and in the end you will get more done.

Continuing the topic of how our brain works, it is worth mentioning that it needs moisture to function normally. Insufficient water supply to the brain is another cause of that "mental fog." Do not let your head "dry out" - drink a glass of plain water every 2 hours. Not coffee, not tea, but plain water. If you like soda, let the gases escape, otherwise the rumbling in your stomach will distract you.

Light music without words, so you do not get distracted, helps you concentrate on the task. I think everyone has heard of hundreds of studies on the beneficial effects of classical music, the "Mozart effect," watched documentaries, read magazines, and so on. Besides classical music, if it is calm, you can also listen to light electronic music. I, for example, love ambient. It is very calm music and helps you focus. You can listen to ambient on the free internet radio http://stillstream.com/.

It is no accident that children in kindergarten are put to bed after lunch. Daytime sleep is very beneficial for the body. Google offices even have special capsules where employees can take an hour-long nap.

If possible, try to set aside an hour after lunch for sleep. After you wake up, you will get much more done than if you had worked without a break.

Ginkgo Biloba is a tree whose leaves have marvelous properties: it increases the body’s energy potential, slows aging by improving blood supply to the brain, and is a powerful stimulant of memory, logical thinking, and concentration in people of different age groups. And it has plenty of other useful properties as well. If you are interested, you can read about it on Google.

But the main property of this plant is improving brain function, concentration, and memory. The course lasts 1 month, 1 tablet a day. A pack of 40 tablets is inexpensive. One pack every six months, and your brain will work much better. I take it myself, and I recommend it to you. You can buy it here.

Ginkgo Biloba - eto takoe derevo, listya kotorogo obladayut chudesnymi svoystvami: povyshaet energeticheskie vozmozhnosti organizma, zamedlyaet starenie, uluchshaya krovosnabzhenie golovnogo mozga, yavlyaetsya moshchnym stimulyatorom pamyati, logicheskogo myshleniya, kontsentratsii vnimaniya u lyudey raznykh vozrastnykh grupp. I eshche kucha drugikh poleznykh svoystv.

Poetomu peyte, no v meru.
