Innercise: How to Enhance the Genius Part of Your Brain



Have you ever stopped and thought about your past resolutions, and how many fell by the wayside?

What if this time around, you don’t just make resolutions, but take the kind of effective action that will make sure you see yours through?
You can disrupt negative thoughts and behaviors that cause you to fall short of your goals, and divert that energy toward the positive ideas and habits that could drive you to success!


Welcome to the Innercise on how to enhance the genius part of your brain!
If you are struggling to accomplish your goals, there may be a lack of positive activity within the left prefronal cortex of your brain, which turns off the "worry centers" located in the right prefrontal cortex. 

Try This Innercise to Gain Optimism and the Positivity You Need to Accomplish Your Goals.

1. Set a goal and write it down. “I want to lose 10 pounds this month."

2. Next, write down 3 action steps that will help you move to that goal. i.e. Don’t buy chips and soda at the store, drink water instead of getting that double vanilla latte, set an alert to take two 10-minute walks everyday.

3. Implement your alternate plan of action.
That’s it! It sounds simple, but you would be surprised how the act of writing the steps down and looking at them daily will generate action and create positive daily habits. Even if the steps are small, it’s all about gaining forward momentum toward your goals.
If you still struggle with getting motivated, try this other Innercise to keep the motivation part of your brain active.
After you do this Innercise, please let us know how it worked for you or share one of your reasons why you must achieve your goal in the comments below.
Please share this terrific, scientific information with your friends on social media.
By retraining your brain for success, you’ll stop standing on the edge of your potential; and you’ll start fulfilling more of what you are capable of achieving. All our NeuroGym programs use the latest science to help you recognize and release any of the mental or emotional obstacles that are keeping you stuck at your current level of success.

What You Can Learn From Einstein's Quirky Habits

More than 10 hours of sleep and no socks – could this be the secret to thinking like a genius? Celebrated inventor and physicist Nikola Tesla swore by toe exercises – every night, he’d  repeatedly ‘squish’ his toes , 100 times for each foot,  according to the author Marc J Seifer . While it’s not entirely clear exactly what that exercise involved, Tesla claimed it helped to stimulate his brain cells. The most prolific mathematician of the 20th Century, Paul Erdos,  preferred a different kind of stimulant : amphetamine, which he used to fuel 20-hour number benders. When a friend bet him $500 that he couldn’t stop for a month, he won but complained “You’ve set mathematics back a month”. Newton, meanwhile, bragged about the benefits of celibacy. When he died in 1727, he had transformed our understanding of the natural world forever and  left behind 10 million words  of notes; he was also, by all accounts, still a virgin (Tesla was also celibate, though he ...

Forbidden planets: Understanding alien worlds once thought impossible

... (several lines of code) ... When astronomers discovered the first exoplanet around a normal star 2 decades ago, there was joy—and bewilderment. The planet, 51 Pegasi b, was half as massive as Jupiter, but its 4-day orbit was impossibly close to the star, far smaller than the 88-day orbit of Mercury. Theorists who study planet formation could see no way for a planet that big to grow in such tight confines around a newborn star. It could have been a freak, but soon, more “hot Jupiters” turned up in planet searches, and they were joined by other oddities: planets in elongated and highly tilted orbits, even planets orbiting their stars “backward”—counter to the star’s rotation.  The planet hunt accelerated with the launch of NASA’s Kepler spacecraft in 2009, and the 2500 worlds it has discovered added statistical heft to the study of exoplanets—and yet more confusion. Kepler found that the most common type of planet in the galaxy is something between the size of Earth and...
