The common belief that IQ is fixed is being challenged by recent research in neuroscience and psychology. 📚 Many thinkers throughout history, such as Albert Einstein and Charles Darwin, demonstrated that intelligence can evolve over time.
This video dives into the idea that intelligence isn’t purely genetic and reveals habits that can actually enhance cognitive abilities. For instance, engaging in deep thinking and struggling with complex ideas can lead to changes in the brain, fostering an environment where intelligence can flourish.
Writing is highlighted as a significant tool for improving thought processes. Research from Princeton and UCLA indicates that writing by hand aids conceptual understanding much more effectively than typing or merely reading. This practice allows ideas to form more clearly and creatively, transforming vague concepts into precise thoughts.
We also explore the lifestyles of legendary figures like Tesla and da Vinci, shedding light on what they did differently that contributed to their extraordinary mental acuity. It’s emphasized that the journey to enhancing intelligence is not about seeking shortcuts or hacks, but rather about cultivating effective systems in daily life to promote long-term cognitive growth.
