Intelligence Enhancement

All too often, thinking is taken for granted! That is to say, rather than think, people act, or react. Some people function solely from what they know. This avoids thinking altogether. If they already know everything they believe they need to know, they do not need to think at all! Other people get in a routine so that everything is expected to be the same all the time. No thinking required there! Unless something unexpected happens!


Then there's the media. Television, radio, newspapers, magazines, et al, do the thinking for people. No need to think, just listen or read. The talking heads will tell you what to think. As long as people are being told what to think or what to believe, no one is figuring things out. That's what the media is all about. "Don't bother figuring things out! We will tell you all you need to know." That is what they would like you to do. That is not what you are going to do if you read this blog.


In an exciting quest to understand, intelligence was selected as the subject of much thought so as to figure out how to increase it. After some thinking to pinpoint what intelligence is, it was determined that it is the ability to figure things out. Look at IQ tests. What do they have you do on IQ tests? They have you figure things out. Most commonly you are asked to look at a series of patterns, then you are asked to select which of 4 answers would complete the pattern. How do you do that? By figuring it out!


How can you increase your intelligence? By being better able to figure things out. How is this to be accomplished? By the statement, forget the memories that make you figure things out. Such memories have been guiding your behavior all your life. They are of the first few times that you figured things out. These memories have directed you to figure things out only in the ways that you knew when those memories were created. That has placed narrow limits on your ability to figure things out.


You have learned many different ways of figuring things out since those memories were made. You just have not been able to use them. To ensure that you do use all the memories that will enhance your behavior, remember the memories that let you figure things out. This has your subconscious mind turn to all those memories of figuring things out throughout your life. This gives you many more ways of figuring things out. It opens up a whole new world of understanding things! Shucks, you might even be eligible for Mensa membership now!
