5 Ways to Increase Your Intelligence

Inspired by an infographic created by @thinkgrowprosper.

Want to increase your intelligence?

Remember that film Limitless? Take a simple blue pill to maximise your brain power. Well, unfortunately I don't have any of those.

But what I do have is an actionable list to increase your intelligence.

All of these points aren't about learning and retaining information, real intelligence and wisdom comes from your ability to think differently, create links between random points and pull all that together in a clear and concise way.

As Albert Einstein once said:
"Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think."

If you want to amplify your intelligence, maybe it's time to stop thinking about traditional learning, of facts and figures - time to start thinking about how you apply that learning to solve future problems.

Do you know any intelligence increasing hacks?
Let me know in the comments below.

One of my hacks is creating nudenotes, just like point 4 on this list. It's a break from seemingly endless screen time, and allows me to flex my visual problem-solving skills and learn something new in the process.
