Unleash Your Brain Energy - E-book - ePub

If you could increase your brain power, then theoretically you could accomplish almost anything. While having a healthy and strong body is highly important as well, most of us would probably agree that our activities are more reliant on our cognitive abilities rather than ourphysical ones. Many people have computer-based jobs for instance, and this means that we need to use our brains to handle data, to manipulate software, or to come up with business strategies.
Much of our success comes down to our ability to interact with others, which of course is very much dependent on our intelligence and our brain power. Whether you're giving a presentation and choosing the best words to communicate your message, or whether you're in an interview or date setting and trying to quickly find the wittiest or funniest response to a question. Problems at home tend to involve finances, social situations or legal issues - there are very few problems we can solve with our fists.
In our spare time, we tend to pursue more intellectual activities too. Perhaps we play video games (reacting to enemies and solving puzzles), or maybe we sit and read. And even when an activity seems 'physical' on the surface, it is in fact very often just as much cognitive. Take sports for example, which require you to be aware of the positions of your team mates and opponents and to use your body efficiently and accurately through space.
Or how about doing 'physical labor' such as making repairs - which almost always involves some measure of engineering. So, if you were smarter then, or if you just had greater command over your mental faculties, you'd be able to:Concentrate longer on tasks and get more work doneThereby progressing further in your chosen career and earning more moneyThereby giving yourself more free time at the end of each day and giving you fewer things to stress aboutCome up with unique ideas and novel solutionsThereby potentially making yourself rich, or changing the world in apositive wayThereby solving problems that you face in your daily lifeImprove your physical and sporting abilityImpress anyone in a conversationBecome better at any given task, from plumbing to computer gamesBecome more self-sufficient and reliantAnd even beyond the practical and tangible benefits of boosting your brain power, you'd be able to benefit from simply having a greater appreciation for the world around you.
A better understanding of how things work. An enhanced capacity for learning and more incentive to do so.Perhaps you could improve your understanding and appreciation of the very nature of life and the universe.
