To be truthful these people are in the (current) minority.<\/p>\n<p>For a large majority of others the idea that their reasoning or ability to think could be improved would be taken as a direct insult and you might well end up with a sore nose even for suggesting the idea!<\/p>\n<p>So, it is to this minority of people who have come to the conclusion, that they would be able to handle their lives better, achieve more, or generally have a less hard time of even just existing, IF they could discover a way of improving their thinking, concentrate better, think more clearly.<\/p>\n<p>This is <span>not<\/span> a blog about any\u00a0esoteric\u00a0mental mumbo-jumbo or occult activity to create mind-power\u2026. I will be <strong>totally down-to-earth and realistic here.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The fact that you are reading this shows me that you <span>consider the\u00a0possibility\u00a0to exist<\/span> that your mind can be improved. Right?<\/p>\n<p>Ok. Yes , it is true. Your ability to <span>use your mind<\/span> can be <em>easily<\/em> enhanced without any tremendous effort on your part. You do not have to meditate, or stand on your head to increase the blood flow, or eat only fish liver.<\/p>\n<p>NO, there are <strong>simple\u00a0everyday\u00a0things<\/strong> that you can do to become more mentally capable, increase concentration and indeed, increase your I.Q. (I\u2019m sorry, but Freud was wrong when he said it couldn\u2019t be changed..)<\/p>\n<h2>Clarifying the words that you use helps increase concentration.<\/h2>\n<p>The first thing\u00a0that\u00a0you can do as a daily routine, is to clarify the words that you come\u00a0across\u00a0that you do not completely understand. It is a <strong>fact<\/strong> that when you read or hear a word that you do not fully understand you become \u2018blank\u2019 at that point, less concentrated on the source of\u00a0the\u00a0words (speaker or book) and easily distracted.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"How to develop study skills \u2013 or \u201cIs it worth learning?\u201d\" href=\"\/jeremusic\/how-to-develop-study-skills-or-is-it-worth-learning\/\">You can get more details in this article here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The very sloppy attitude that is currently prevalent concerning the knowing of precise definitions of words is one reason why a persons ability to think is\u00a0lessened\u00a0 because the concepts (understood through words, written and spoken, are \u2018fuzzy\u2019 in their mind. Fuzzy concepts leads to fuzzy thinking.)<\/p>\n<p>Current schooling attitudes do not demand that the student can precisely define the terms he or she is using, so fuzzy is what we get. Your path to increased concentration is found through\u00a0clarifying\u00a0the language used to learn. There is a state called super-literacy, wher every word that is used is fully clarified in all definitions and uses. A person at this level can read or hear any text and understand perfectly.<\/p>\n<h2>Today\u2019s readers become\u00a0tomorrow\u2019s\u00a0Leaders.<\/h2>\n<p>A title that say\u2019s it all. In order to improve your mental agility, ability to understand and to communicate effectively, the best thing that you can do is to read daily. Put some time aside each day to read with your full attention on the process, some book or other text on a subject of your choice. Many\u00a0people\u00a0see a significant improvement in their level of mental ability after a few short weeks of putting in place the habit of reading somethign each day.<\/p>\n<p>WARNING. I do not mean the daily (rubbish) newspaper. I mean a book, written by someone who\u2019s intention in writing it was to impart some useful information to the reader. Not the paper\u2019s shock horror idiot brainwashing articles\u00a0that\u00a0are just written to make you feel oppressed and how dangerous the environment is and how dumb the government is, and how <span>you better buy the same stupid paper tomorrow<\/span> or you might not know that the!\u2026.arrrhghg!<\/p>\n<p>OK? Are you following me so far? Great.<\/p>\n<h2>Increase concentration on you dreams.<\/h2>\n<p>A great philosopher once said to \u2018take some time out each day to allow yourself to day-dream like \u00a0you did as a child\u2026\u2019. This is very\u00a0pertinent advice, as we are so\u00a0thoroughly\u00a0ruled by all the items\u00a0that\u00a0grab and squander our attention, we rarely if ever, allow ourselves the time to just drift off into our own personal thoughts.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t mean the half-dozed off state that we go into when finishing work for the day \u00a0where the list of not-dones takes our attention units even when we are not working.<\/p>\n<p>The idea here is to learn to be able to let go. To disconnect, for a least a short while, to allow us to\u00a0mentally\u00a0re-balance. Having a dream is a necessity, being able to create that dream in your mind each day to grow it, is very sensible activity to improve your mental ability. A person with a goal or dream that they are working towards accomplishing is better set on the road to success than someone who has let the stupid world around them rob them of any hope or dream of ever bettering their existence. Those who hold on tight\u00a0to\u00a0their\u00a0dreams will succeed.<\/p>\n<p>Having the dream\u00a0<em>there\u00a0with you each day<\/em> IS the first part of being able to accomplish it. Putting yourself in an improved mental capacity each day IS the road to achieving your goals.<\/p>\n<p>Like the man that turned a desert into a forest\u00a0ecosystem\u00a0single-handedly planting trees each day for thirty years, <strong>impossible things can be accomplished<\/strong> when worked on correctly each day. If, like most people, that man had listened to everyone around him who \u201cknew nothing ever would grow there\u201d the place would still be a desert. But he didn\u2019t and you shouldn\u2019t either.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I hope I have given you a few hints to increase \u00a0concentration and general mental ability. Of course there\u2019s a great deal more where that cam from, but for now, if you do these things you will already be a brighter spark than yesterday, and that will grow into a super-nova if you let it.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for listening!<\/p>\n<p>And as I always say,<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flourish and Prosper!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Jeremusic AKA Jeremy Feldmesser<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/empowernetwork.com\/blog\/category\/mindset\/\">What the mind can\u00a0conceive\u00a0, the mind can achieve<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h3>What does personal development have to do with marketing on the\u00a0internet? \u25ba<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019m writing this blog on my <a href=\"https:\/\/empowernetwork.com\/about\/\">Empower Network<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/empowernetwork.com\/blogging\/\">blogging<\/a> platform\u00a0<strong>because it ranks fast!\u00a0<\/strong>I chose to be part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/empowernetwork.com\/what-happened-to-empower-network\/\">Empower Network<\/a> in the first instance to\u00a0market and promote my music.\u00a0I rapidly got the\u00a0<em><strong>blogger-bug<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0and finding that\u00a0<em>I could also be an affiliate<\/em>\u00a0and<strong> help others<\/strong> promote their music, web-site or business too, I expanded my field of activity to include exactly that.<\/p>\n<p>Being part of the Empower Network enables you to join a rapidly expanding community of like-minded people from all walks of life, AND you get to to rub shoulders with some awesome top producers so you can \u2018osmose\u2019 some of their greatness for yourself.
