Thanx for this cool information, want to start immediately gearing my brain
I’ve tried everything when my brain gets cramps, why not try 22 more things that could help me out.
Thanks for directing me to the article. I’ll let you know how it goes.
There are no specific rules that can help you overclock your brain… Every person has a method to get them going (it would be kind of boring if everybody person on Earth was the same), but they have to find that out for themselves! Some people require a nice walk to get them going (and I’m one of them), while others need a cup of cocoa to sip slowly in front of the TV. From all the 22 ways that are suggested, my favorite has to be “Laugh”, since laughter is the most valuable thing that humans have to get them going. Laughter means exercise (yes, it’s true), puts you in a good mood and fuels creativity! So, go ahead and laugh – then start blogging!
ahah, that’s interesting.
I would consider reading this article the “23rd way”. Very stimulating!
Excelent link. Thanks.
When I was young, my Nana kept telling me to do crosswords and word-search puzzles. I know what she was talking about now!
Not sure her about her G&T habit though!

Yes indeed a great link.
Happened to read it last night :-)

A great list, I’d be sure to make a printout of this. Though I’ve read and heard of most of the tips before, it’s nice to find them all in one place.

Here’s the intro before the list, it says it all: […]
