A person strives all his life to become better. Not only externally, but also internally. Below is a selection of effective ways to get smarter.

Method 1. Wiggling the brain

This means that a person needs to constantly be in the study of some new information. Well, or you can delve into the study of what is already known. Such “training” is quite useful for the brain: for example, a person makes the most natural prevention of various diseases.

Method 2. Read books

Again, in this case, something new is being studied. Yes, the mind is evolving. It turns out that from reading books there are only solid pluses. Only now you need to read only good literature, and not some terrible detective stories, which describe various murders. Such literature is unlikely to be useful.

Method 3. Unleash your emotions

Conventionally, intelligence can be divided into two parts – rational and emotional. When a person says that he wants to become smarter, the rational side is involved. In this case, the emotional side is often not affected at all. But if you give vent to emotions, then both sides will function in equal shares.

Method 4: Do it the other way around

To be able to develop successfully, sometimes you need to do the usual things a little differently. So, for example, you can try writing a text paragraph with a different hand, which is usually not used. Then the brain will receive a signal about some new action, which means it will begin to look for ways of least resistance to updates. Yes, and a person can learn something new.

Method 5. Don’t use search engines

The Internet makes life much easier for a person, but at the same time, the brain begins to be lazy. After all, it is much easier to quickly find out the answer to a question and forget about it than to look for the answer in the appropriate book and save this information on the subconscious. Therefore, in order to become smarter, you need to not use search engines for at least a week, but to look for answers to questions in other ways.

Method 6. Play mind games

Now game developers can offer anything. So why not take advantage of this? Indeed, in mobile game stores it is quite possible to find even a free version of some game that is aimed at developing the brain. At the same time, it will be possible to combine business with pleasure: both time will be taken, and the brain will be pumped.

Method 7. Talk to yourself

This may seem strange to some, but talking to yourself helps streamline the flow of thoughts. After all, by pronouncing thoughts aloud, you can immediately discard the unnecessary, and also remember what is important.

You can not only talk to yourself while sitting in front of a mirror, but also sing songs, read poems aloud or say tongue twisters. All this will positively affect the activity of the brain, and hence the mind.

Method 8. Formulate thoughts briefly

To learn this, it is quite possible to use social networks. In some of them, the number of characters for entries is strictly limited. And it needs to be used. You can also just take a sheet of paper and draw some shape on it. After that, the flow of your thoughts must be written inside this figure, but in such a way that the words do not go beyond the boundaries. All this teaches you to systematize your thoughts, which ultimately allows you to speak clearly and concisely to the point.

Method 9. Learn languages

In this case, the brain will receive new information that will need to be remembered. And then you can also think in a foreign language, i.e. try to speak thoughts in a different language with your inner voice. This is a great workout, and it can also help in a career.

Technique 10. Surround yourself with smart people

When communicating with them, you can unwittingly train your brain and mind, because they can share new information or teach something new.
