I'm not sure if you're looking for more intelligence here, but more learning ... a different thing. That can be fed by opening-wide your curiosity, and constantly feeding it with new things. Youtube is great for that, so are books that genuinely interest you and motivate you to learn more. Always take time to recall what you've experienced and remember the details. But supposing you do mean intelligence, then: First you need to take good care of your 'machine'. Enough rest, good diet, enough exercise, avoid aggravating things and people. There will be days it's not working; learn to recognize them; don't struggle, get some chores done. After that: there are many kinds of intelligence. Get that list, pick the one you want to work on. One example: creative intelligence. The kind authors, artists, composers, (even programmers!) may have. (Or not.) First they have to learn how to take great dictation (writing words, or painting, or writing musical notes down) ... to 'get ready'. Then they need to learn to get their 'brain intelligence' out of the way to get the flow going. Many will use some kind of mind-altering substance substance to get there. (Be careful you don't get owned.) Einstein got his top ideas by imagining. Music players get their chops solid, and then 'go nuts' (or artistic, depending on the genre). If you're lucky, 'The Source' will then start pouring. (Doesn't have to be 'artistic', just something where 'new' is an advantage... you have to be open to it.) |
