IMPROVING YOUR BRAINS ABILITY TO LEARN

Everyone’s brain has unique circuits based on their experience. How your brain FUNCTIONS is anchored by the maps of your previous experience (it’s is highly customized by experience as a child). You can rewire your brain at ANY age of life, below I will share a couple scientifically proven methods:

1. Persistence, intensity & subjective importance of acquiring the skill : In order to modify our brain, something has to be persistent enough (practice aka reps!), or intense enough (inversely related to the number of learning bouts required), or important enough (subjective but yes, we have to chemically register the importance of learning; even if that event is not by choice to force the circuitry into a new configuration).

2. Very focused deliberate effort: strain & agitation is an important part of learning! This is the brain queuing up systems in the brain stem - the effort process doesn’t feel good - BUT that agitation is you getting better! We can associate a sense of reward with this process & leverage it to our advantage.

3. Chunking: a way of dealing with or remembering info by separating it into small groups or chunks: By grouping each data point into a larger whole - or by breaking larger amounts of info into smaller units, you can improve the amount of information you can remember. We can start by: Identifying similarities or patterns; organizing the information; then grouping information into manageable units (e.g., phone numbers, social security numbers & DOB are all a list of numbers that are broken down into 3 separate parts!). Chunking can be used as an everyday memory enhancer, but researchers have also found that you can improve your ability to effectively chunk information (more practice = more efficiency).

Want to learn 3 Evidence Based WAYS to FORM NEW BRAIN CELLS, click on the ‘related video’ tag near the bottom of the screen or use this link:

[Asheroony]

Your own braincells is learning how braincells work

[lasssssse]

Imagine watching a video of brain cells trying to connect and your brain cells doing exactly the same because of this video

[jamesfling]

My brain cell just learnt how brain cell works when brain cell learning something new

[isoing_king]

This is probably the best explanation on how reading is a brain exercise

[Arthurmondo]

"this is how your braincells when you learn something"

My braincells right now: damn i didnt know i learn like that

[dylanthony]

Shoutout to the dude that let us borrow his freaking brain 😂😂

[cosmosapien]

My last two braincells trying to calculate 2+2 after scrolling shorts for 4 hrs:

[WandaGlodowski]

I'm 77 and going back to college. Thanks for inspiring me.

My brain cells learned to connect after watching this tutorial

My Brain cells during math

[Arctic]

This is my brain 5 minutes before the exam, except in reverse.

[melaniekehaya]

I’m nearly 60 and learning new stuff. Not only useful but helps fight any dementia lurking about in the background

[Aly-]

Well.. I just learned something new and now my eyes can't unsee what just happened when I'm in the classroom.

[cosmos]

*Even so, I still don't understand how information can be stored in something like this. Our bodies are incredible.*

[edvinparmeza]

It's like my braincells watching themselves in a mirror when I'm watching this video.

[The-Mediator]

What happens when you step away from tiktok for 0.5 seconds:

[Buttito]

My brain cells seeing this:
"damn thats interesting, I didn't know that"

[SilverScythe]

Fun fact. Your memories are stored in the connect between cells, and not in the cells themselves. So when the cells die, you won't necessarily lose the memory as long as a new cell comes along and takes its place.

The literal of my last 2 braincells tryna make it through the exam 💀
