Train your brain to see patterns and stories. This is how you think faster, remember more, and solve problems.

How to stop scrolling: Schedule scrolling time into your calendar. Budgeting the time rather than using up precious time “whenever” helps.

Active recall is among the best ways to learn a language. You don’t need to memorise, you need to expose yourself to the language.

How to forget: Visualise the incident in grey and see it in third person. Now see the visual get smaller and smaller and you’re moving away further. Keep visualising this and your story will eventually become insignificant.

If you’re mentally hurting it’s because you’re playing the hurt story in your mind. Change this and you change the hurt level.

Read with your finger. It guides your brain to take in information better.

Visualisation is one of the most powerful tools we have as humans. One scene can literally change your entire life.

If you really can’t be bothered doing a task, set your timer for 1 minute and do the task. The challenge isn’t doing the task. The challenge is getting to the task. The 1-minute rule helps with this.

Stress and anxiety are stories replayed in one’s mind. Therefore you can change the power of these stories, weaken them, or even totally eliminate them. Your mind is more powerful than you think.

Your health is of utmost importance. It doesn’t start physically though, it is a mental decision that stays.

Nothing is never too difficult. It’s just we don’t understand it yet.

Brain fog is real. Fortunately so is memory training. Now you have no excuse.

[Tansel Ali @TanselAli]

If you’re feeling mentally tired, write down all the stories in your head. Then pick one and delay the worry for that for tomorrow. One less thing means one less worry.

[Tansel Ali @TanselAli]

You don’t force focus. You eliminate stuff around it which then gives you focus.

[Tansel Ali @TanselAli]

Grouping information together in chunks reduces mental load and assists with better recall.

Are you worried about your child in their final years of school? Whilst it's normal, I found that with advanced memory skills students are able to not just learn and study better, but increase their confidence. A confident student always performs.

The skill that will be in most demand in the future is not tech based, it's human.
