Self Improvement

All around us are people of all types. Some of these people have mastered their own mind by sharpening their short-term memory. These people have moved traps out of the way, stressors from their life, and used tactics to enhance memory. Still, some people are struggling to sharpen the mind. These people have not mastered the mind and took control of their own lives, yet it can happen regardless of what anyone thinks.

The mind is like a hurricane. Hurricanes send gushes of wind, which represents storming memories. The hurricanes can sweep away obstacles, houses, etc, just as the mind can sweep the memories. The only difference is a hurricane can destroy objects, while the memory stores information learnt forever. Still, if the mind suffers disease or death, it too can destroy memories and information learnt.

What it takes to sharpen the mind is removing traps. Traps are stressors, anxiety, nervousness, distracting thoughts and the like. Once you remove these traps, you would have cleared up memory to flow freely. Now you can start downloading new information to bring those old memories to life.

To study effectively you will need to shorten your time studying. In other words, instead of reading for hours, say five or six, break down the study time. It is possible to learn more studying in less time, say around two hours. The body and mind works if you plan wisely. In other words, if you go to the gym for exercise and workout seven hours believing you will loose weight, you will be depressed at the overall results. Proper exercise is breaking down workouts. The body can handle working out three times per week, at one-hour intervals. Likewise, the mind can work effectively if you use moderation as a tool to study. The mind needs fun time and relaxation time otherwise, you will setup traps.

Rigorous exercises leaves room for traps. Therefore, take study time and use it wisely by breaking down the workload. Procrastination is a trap as well, therefore, tries to start the tasks immediately and preview first before jumping into the study. This will help you prepare the mind for the task, while avoiding procrastination.

The best times to study is at what time the body and mind is relaxed. You should never study if you haven't eaten a meal. This is another trap, since the body will crave its necessities, which the body feeds off the mind; therefore, you are harming two valuable parts of you that stumbles you from sharpening the mind.

Let's preview: Per se, you have four chapters of information to study by tomorrow class hour. Now you are feeling uneasy, afraid you will miss out. You setup this trap in your mind. Take a few deep breathes, release, a few more deep breathes, release, and tell you that you can do this. Now find a comfortable area in the room, relax, and take a few more deep breathes. Say again, I can do this. If you tell you that you can't, you are only building traps and likely, you won't finish study.

Now, preview the information you are to study looking through each chapter. Look at the headers, topic, first sentences, and a few details in between the pages. Study the pictures as you preview. What you are doing now is preparing the mind for the task.

Ok, now you are ready to study the first chapter. Read it slowly so that you grasp the meaning. Have your purpose in place as you move along. Say aloud. My purpose is to study these chapters assigned so that I can prepare for an upcoming test. My goal is to complete this task before I arrive at class tomorrow morning.

Read the chapters slowly and after finishing review the information. Paraphrase areas where you have questions so that you can make room for clarifications. You can recite and repeat any areas that are confusing to help you study effectively while sharpening the mind
