How to become smarter


 In this complex life everyone suffers a lot in dealing with reality and its problems. Man has a lot of commitments that need to solve many problems and exert a lot of effort in thinking that cannot be done. Therefore, every human being would like to become more intelligent in order to become more able to manage his affairs and solve his problems quickly and in full swing.

Fortunately, a person can actually develop his intelligence. Even that intelligence may develop against his will. Through the experiences that he has to confront and through the trials in which it passes (which are often difficult and harsh experiences). But, then his vision improves and his view of things becomes better.

We offer to all those who are interested in the development of intelligence (without going into harsh experiences) Experienced and excellent methods and based on a theory that has a value in understanding human intelligence, which is the theory of "multiple intelligences".

We will not fool you and say that by using these methods you will become a genius between day and night. But, you need some time to understand the method and then start to apply it on the ground of reality. And so your understanding of the nature of your intelligence and performance will greatly be improved and day after day you will accomplish a lot.

And through understanding and applying the methods that will develop the intelligence you will reach the goal you want. Which is owning a sharp mind capable of facing many of the problems and obstacles that pass through life without fatigue or exhaustion. And also without fear of going into any subsequent experience you need to cross.

But, what is the theory of multiple intelligences?
This theory says that man has many kinds of intelligence and not only has two abilities or intelligence. The ability to communicate in language and logical intelligence, which is characterized by his preoccupation with ideas. These two abilities (or intelligences) were considered the only IQ indicators and are accredited in traditional IQ tests.

This theory was developed by the psychologist Howard Gardner in 1983 and has been found after many tests and experiments. Gardner's intelligence is the efficiency or ability to produce new things of value in a culture or community. Or intelligence is considered a set of skills to enable the person to solve his problems or add new knowledge. And therefore each person distinct from others and intelligence so different from one person to another.  

To illustrate this, we simply take the ancient seafarers 'way of working on the high seas. They knew their way through a large number of sea routes thanks to their understanding of the stars' positions, wind movement and its direction, and some other signs that they only understand through Experience, the word intelligence for them means ingenuity in navigation without a doubt!

Similarly, when we look at the engineers, painters, athletes, trainers, scientists, writers, and leaders of this age. We find that all the abilities and competencies demonstrated by these people in their work and life are undoubtedly a form of intelligence.

Dr. Gardner identified several key intelligences, including linguistic intelligence, logical intelligence, visual intelligence, Physical or muscular intelligence, social intelligence, and emotional intelligence. Later, Gardner acknowledged the possibility of other form of intelligences need to the work of scientists to be discovered.

Every person on earth has all these intelligences! But, the individuals differ among themselves in the way each one employs his intelligences to determine the appropriate way to reach the goals he wants.

Gardner claims that in every time and place, the geniuses are the result of blending more than one intelligence at a time. For example, poets have a high degree of linguistic and musical intelligence, while painters and sculptors have a high degree of visual intelligence and muscular intelligence. Those who have high logical intelligence and somehow develop their spatial-visual intelligence are emerging in theoretical sciences such as Einstein.

Most of the roles we perform in our culture are the result of a combination of intelligences. To be a good violin musician. It is not enough to have musical intelligence, but you need physical fitness or physical intelligence to help you play.

Therefore, the theory of multiple intelligences welcomed the difference between people in the types of intelligences they have and in the way they are used. Which enriches the society and diversifies its culture and civilization by making room for each type of intelligence to appear and crystallize in a production that benefits the development of society and its progress.

In this article we will present methods to develop six types of human intelligence in order: linguistic intelligence, emotional intelligence, social intelligence, logical intelligence, visual intelligence, physical intelligence

The first of the six types of intelligence: How to develop your linguistic intelligence

 

Language intelligence or word intelligence is the mental system responsible for everything related to words; it enables you to remember, understand, read, write, also think and speak, and produce meaningful productions using words such as writing different literary topics and telling poetry.


In other words, linguistic intelligence includes words and everything that revolves around it, such as reading, listening, speaking and writing. Therefore, the owner of this intelligence has the ability to use words brilliantly to express what he wants.

 

 

And this gives him the ability to make smart dialogue with others. And to speak in an interesting manner and to release the humor and the anecdote that comes in the right time and place. And we may see him a preacher who captures the minds and hearts of his listeners. And also will may find him a distinguished writer or journalist or even a talented poet.

 

 

The great successors praised this kind of intelligence. And stated that the practice in the world of words and the expansion of linguistic intelligence in addition to the proper professional behavior is the passport to any summit of business and professions.

After many experiments and many years of testing. Scientists discovered that the easiest and fastest way to move forward to become smarter is to establish your knowledge of words and enunciation.

 

 

We will show you dear reader two ways to develop your verbal intelligence:

1. Attentive listening (Active listening)

Listening is the best way to improve the fluency and growth of native and foreign languages. The listener receives valuable linguistic information more easily and simply than written versions. And because we as humans spend almost half of our communication time listening, so most of what we learned comes through our ears. Here, your listening goal will be to increase your knowledge of words  and vocabulary, as well as to increase your knowledge of grammatical rules and rhetorical expressions.

Any person speaks at 135 words per minute, but his mind is able to absorb 400 to 800 words per minute. This difference between the rate of speech and listening leaves a great deal of time for the brain to examine the subject and its information. Or to be distracted in other matters.

Thus, the efficiency of the person who is not trained to listen attentively is not more than 25%. But, when you train daily on this attentive listening you will increase your ability to understand and absorb more valuable language information. Which ultimately lead to the development of your linguistic intelligence.

Attentive listening is the positive reception of information and stimuli received from other parties that human beings deal with, such as spoken words, sounds. Or signs that carry information, thoughts, opinions and feelings. And not only "listen" in the sense of the role of the ear in receiving sounds.

Since the human ability to listen increase by increasing his attention to the inherent meanings in the talk addressed to him. So, in this type of listening we try to reach the maximum attention and concentration. Where we focus all our mental energy on words that have been spoken, as well as attention to the inherent meanings in words and phrases.


Active listening approach

The attentive listening is divided into two stages. During which the mind of the listener must proceed in order to reach the best understanding and comprehension of the subject of the speaker. Namely interpretation and comprehension

It focuses on the words and phrases spoken by the speaker in order to understand the meaning of each word or term. And then to understand the rhetoric and the beautiful and resonant expressions used by the speaker to present his opinion or information. With a superficial understanding of the information and facts and ideas in the context of his speech.

Interpretation:  interpretation  means understanding the meaning of the words and terms contained in the context of the conversation that the other party discusses. As well as understanding each statement or phrase in the persuasive message of the speaker in order to understand the position of the speaker and understand his point of view. So, your goal as an interpreter is to understand the meaning of each word or term and add any strange or new word to your own dictionary for later use. As well as understanding the meaning of each sentence or phrase to reach a deeper understanding of the content. And here, you will need to retrieve simple grammar rules that you know and see whether the speaker is using them properly or making mistakes

Comprehension: at this stage your goal is to collect and compile the rhetorical methods and the beautiful and resonant expressions used by the speaker to present his opinion or information. And here will be the constant question while you are listening: "What are the colors of rhetoric and beauty in the expressions and sentences of the speaker which used to improve the presentation of his persuasive message?"

Here, you will focus only on the process of listening to beautiful phrases and the rhetorical styles spoken by the speaker. And tries to assimilate his message in general by knowing his general ideas. So do not confuse your mind by trying to understand everything that the speaker says, it is not necessary to know the details of facts and figures.

The intensity of the subject information in which the speaker announces may be an impediment to the achievement of your goal. Which is development and expansion of your linguistic intelligence by listening. And also during the conversation you will be fully engaged to pay attention to ideas and many details such as droll stories and statistics. And forget that the development of your linguistic intelligence depends on the expansion of your vocabulary and the development of your stock of grammar and rhetorical expressions. But, remember that learning and adding is cumulative! And over the course of days you will add a lot of beautiful language styles and wonderful words and vocabulary to your memory. And has the ability to understand and use grammatical rules smoothly.

Just focus in each conversation on the extraction of a new word or grammatical rule or distinctive rhetorical style. And within a few months will be much better than your first state.

We recommend that you listen to conversational people who are good at speaking to improve your ability to use language proficiently. Or watching TV programs that analyze the various events in the countries of the world. Where experts speak and discuss because following up the various news channels makes you more sharp-witted, and the more you listen to them, the better your verbal and rhetorical abilities.

Active listen can be improved simply by paying attention to what is being said, and understanding what is included, in the talk or discussion.

The more you listen active, the more you learn, and the more you learn, the more linguistic intelligent you are.

2. Speak effectively

Speaking aloud is the best exercise for the brain because it stimulates memory to retrieve stored words, especially new ones! Which helps your mind either to generate stored information in order to increase its reliability. Or to produce more innovative ideas and express them with better words and styles than you did before.

Here, your goal will be to practice using words to create ideas and to present information in a creative way that makes others lean toward your point of view.

A. So talk too much!

Try to explain an idea or information to a friend during any casual discussion, in which your point of view is presented. Or make sure to join any discussion panel that includes different opinions and ideas in order to present your production of ideas and fruitful views.

If you do not find someone else you can talk to yourself out loud! Or talk to imaginary friends in your mind to exchange information with them. Which is an excellent way to recycle information and display it better in your conscious mind. This is by imagining a conversation between you and someone else (you invent) who knows more about particular topic and you want to know his opinion or his advice.

B. Be on your true nature

If you find yourself talking to someone or facing a social occasion. There is a very simple secret to being able to speak that is to be on your true nature. All speakers agreed that acting in a natural way was the best way to present ideas.

So in each situation speaks naturally, say what you want freely with your real voice tone. And do not try to change your tone or your voice because it reveals your own nature and experience.

Also make room for your emotions during the presentation of your material. Do not suppress yourself,  but give the opportunity to your emotion and your enthusiasm and anger and even your joy to appear. Which brings you out of the state of extreme cold which appear after a while which do not make them respond to your opinions.

C. Inlaying your phrases with strong sentences

At the beginning of the last century, linguists discovered that the sentences had a unique ability to alert and stimulate the mind. Therefore, whenever the speaker uses brief and concise sentences that contain strong and vibrant words, he can attract more attention!

A strong sentence is a text combination of a few words with no more than four words that convey the intended meaning because it is easy to visualize and understand. Strong sentences show its strength among the other sentences because it predicts a bold idea or contains important information or calls to engage in a particular conversation. Which stimulates the mind of the listener and the recipient for more.

To create strong sentences that attract people and gain a lot of empathy and interest with your thoughts, create the general idea of your phrase first. Then, assemble the words and phrases that express the idea creatively and create phrases in a hurry. If you have more time, select the most powerful words and then rephrase what you want in your own style.

Of course, you will not produce strong sentences immediately with this simple advice. But, it will require a lot of time and effort to distinguish many different word formats and determine the best formula. Then, repeat the comparison repeatedly between word formats to determine the strongest sentence that you will then use in your next conversations.

D. Focus on your experiences, information, and proven skills while speaking

Each job, profession or talent has its own character and unique information and experience. Choose some of the sentences related to your job or hobbies that have an influential meaning and include it in what you want to say from now on.

Such rich words will give you extra power as you speak, and when you focus on your knowledge and skill, you will speak with confidence and clarity. And then the recipients will listen to your notes and hear what you say.



Second: How to develop your Emotional intelligence

Emotional intelligence is the ability of the individual to recognize his feelings and the feelings of others and awareness of them in order to be able to manage emotions and tempers well with the self or with others in order to be able to share emotional with others. And to manage relations with them in a distinctive and constructive way.

In other words, emotional intelligence combines the ability to be aware of special feelings and emotions, as well as the ability to understanding others' feelings in order to achieve success when communicating with others.

Who is the owner of emotional intelligence?

He is a person who knows his weaknesses and his strength and understands his feelings fully. He is an optimistic person who, does not tend to be preoccupied with anxiety. And is not shackled by obstacles or fear of failure to follow the path of his own self. Also, he is a person who can deal flexibly with external stress.

One of the best advantages of men with high emotional intelligence is their ability to adapt to new social environments easily because they are sympathetic people! And have a great ability to understand others' feelings. So, they respect and appreciate others and understand their motives, making the community around them satisfied with them.

As for women with emotional intelligence they trust their feelings and therefore rarely feel anxious or guilty or even regret their own frankness, they are also non-conservative, so it is easy for them to form new social relationships. As such, they can adapt to the stresses and pressures of the social life.

The utility of emotional intelligence:

-A person with high emotional intelligence can deal positively with himself and with those around him. Achieving for himself and others the greatest amount of sympathy, richness of ethics and harmony with others.

-A person with emotional intelligence is more able to think with others and accept criticism and dissent, making him reach compromises that make him more connected to others. The secret to the success of any group or team depends on the emotional intelligence of all members of the group and not their logical intelligence.

-Low emotional intelligence brings to its owner negative feelings that cannot be treated properly such as anger, aggression, fear and guilt. Therefore, we find in our modern societies increased rates of depression, anxiety, materialism and brutality. And this indicates that logical intelligence alone is not enough to control your psychological life or your social affairs. And not even emotions that you feel in every situation you pass. However, human also needs his emotional intelligence in order to be in constant contact with his feelings and the ability to deal and organize with it for his service.

-When the emotional intelligence of the student rises, he can better control his feelings. For example, he can calm down his fear, anxiety and tension caused by the approaching exam. Even during the exam itself, the student becomes more able to focus, read and solving questions efficiently.

-Emotional intelligence has become one of the essential qualities of effective leadership and management. A leader with great emotional intelligence is more loyal to the organization in which he works and performs his work better and happier in his work. Where he has the ability to use his emotional intelligence to deal with his emotions and the feelings of the staff who works with him.

He is able to instill feelings of trust, love and cooperation, even happiness and joy among employees through their personal relationships. And also motivate them to perform work tasks better, making it easier to make any future decisions.

Recent studies have shown that managers in management positions at any institution achieve increased efficiency and production of the institution they lead if they have more emotional intelligence. The specialists went farther, asserting that every person who wants to succeed in any field needs 80% of his emotional intelligence in exchange for 20% of his skills and technical abilities.

Can any person raise the level of his emotional intelligence?

The answer is yes and certainly, and the possibility of developing emotional intelligence is much broader than the possibility of development in other types of human intelligence.

The principle of developing emotional intelligence is very simple and is (make your intelligence work in your feelings and emotions) and so you first have to understand your passion (what do you feel? And why do you feel this feeling at this time?) and then you have to deal with your passion in a positive and creative way in order to reach the best behavior possible to follow and deal with it.

The emotionally intelligent person does not ignore his emotions and feelings and does not inhibit them. But, understands them in order to deal with them in a sound manner that has a beneficial effect. As the suppression of emotions leads to congestion, which negatively affects the mental and physical health of the individual.

We as human beings cannot determine or decide our emotions, but we can decide what to do about them. For example, we cannot decide when and where to get angry, but we can decide how to deal with anger if it happens! And because there is a reciprocal relationship between thinking, feeling and behavior. So, we can control our behavior and reach it to the best level by introducing thinking about emotion. When you change the way you think about something, you change your attitude towards it and your behavior changes.

And because the process of introducing thinking about emotions can be learned. It is, therefore, possible at any age that a person learns how to understand his emotions and the emotions of others. It is also possible for any person to learn how to direct these emotions in paths that are useful to him and others. Which has a great social impact and important in the society in which he lives.

There are two simple ways to develop emotional intelligence. Training may take some time. However, if you achieve these two methods, your emotional intelligence will grow exponentially and you will be able to perceive and produce the right emotions for each situation or event.

The first method: Develop your self-awareness

Self-awareness means the ability of a person to know his emotions and to identify his feelings at any time. It is considered the cornerstone of emotional intelligence, the inability of a person to observe his true feelings makes him under its negative influence. If you can keep an eye on your feelings at any time, you will avoid the bad effects of these emotions! Especially when making difficult decisions or dealing with others.

When a person controls his own desires and inclinations, he is in control of himself and not subordinate to it. Making him a master of himself! Led it to success and happiness in life, not to lead him to a miserable life full of anxiety, nervousness and suffering.

You can develop self-awareness by yourself through training to reveal your feelings and interpretation it, and this exercise known as (know yourself exercise!).

How to Perform (Know yourself) Exercise:

1-First, prepare a paper, a pen or a tape recorder to record your thoughts. Then sit in a quiet room on a comfortable chair and then breathe deeply for a minute or two until you relax.

2-Answer the first question: "Who are you?", and here, you can answer this question in Intensification way, where you review your personal identity and the important stages in your life. What do you like and what you hate? List a lot of information about yourself. This information is the basis on which you will build your understanding of yourself and your feelings.

3-Answer the second question: (what are the things or affairs that fill you with bad or negative feelings in your life??). Write down or record anything or any events you encountered  and felt bad feelings about it or filled you with negative emotions. And you can start with the events you have encountered in the past few days and go back. And you will find that you can mention many of the events or people that caused a bad feeling or severe mental distress to you.

4-You should then ask yourself: Did you involved in implicating yourself to enter into this dilemma or this problem or this place? Did you have the guilt to inflict some kinds of abuse on the person who insulted or hurt to you?

If you do not have any guilt and do not involve yourself in trouble or quarrel with someone else, you should not blame yourself or even feel upset. This is the reality and you have to live with a better understanding. The best treatment is to ignore all of these places, people and problems, and you may take lessons from these difficult events.

5-Now you have to recognize the things or people who are making you feel positive. For example, you can say that what I feel positive about is going to the club to play and have fun with my friends. Or I felt strong feelings on the day I graduated from the university also when I finish an important training course. Or the happier day passes on the month is the day I receive the salary!

6-Now focus on a specific situation and try to find out what feelings you have experienced during this situation or event. For example, focus your thoughts on the day of your birthday, or any celebration or happy occasion and start from the beginning of the day. And try to know every positive feeling you felt from the beginning of the celebration to the end. But, try to be as detailed as possible.

7-Repeat this training on every happy or joyful event that makes you feel positive and try to pay attention to all your feelings during this happy event. At first this training will be heavy on you, but by continuing to practice it will be easy. And you will not need much effort to get to know your feelings during any event or situation you have already passed or are currently experiencing.

By doing this, you have a strong sense of self and a greater awareness of your feelings. And for this you will be more able to behave more accurately and more effectively in life and with others.

The second method: Emotional Empathy or embrace

Is a fundamental human skill based on awareness of emotions, it represents the human ability to sense and know the feelings and emotions of others to understand their attitudes. And reactions as a beginning to interact with them in accordance with their thinking and feelings and to establish successful and healthy social relations with them. People with the skill of emotional empathy are better able to understand any emotional signals or feelings from others. Enabling them to have wonderful human relationships with anyone.

In order to improve this skill you have to do deep emotional empathy exercise. And this exercise consists of six steps. If you practice it for several weeks you will be able to understand the feelings and emotions of anyone. And you will see things and interact with them as others see and feel which build their opinions and positions on it.

How to Perform Deep Emotional Empathy Exercise:

This exercise lasts twenty minutes, and before you begin to perform, choose a place that no one can interrupt during this period. Sit back and relax deeply and Breathe deeply and quietly several times, if you want more rest, close your eyes and follow these steps.

1-Bring back from your memory a problem that aroused your feelings and was caused by someone. Remember any problem such as a disagreement with a friend or a phrase that hurt your feelings and was issued by someone.

2-Often this problem or offensive phrase caused bad or nasty feelings. You need to focus your thinking on why these feelings are provoked. For example, is the problem with your friend the reason for the release of your anger feelings or the behavior of your friend, who found it frustrated and bad??

3-Summon a picture of the friend who abused you as if the situation is happening now and try to know what led to his behavior that disillusionment your hopes. Was he very emotional or the problem that occurred did not know how to act about it!

4-Now you have to change your position to the other person's place or position, imagine yourself as the other party, you become him! Imagine yourself as if you are him, feel his feelings and have the same background on which these feelings are based. Then, think again as you place yourself in the other person's place and through his point of view on the actions that you have done during this problem and evaluate the responses of your actions and restraints. Do you see yourself too sharp and angry? Or do you see yourself acting irrationally disproportionate to the situation? Or are you so cool that you do not even show the slightest reaction?!

5-Then evaluate how he deals with you and how he interacts with your words in general, do you see it as right method of dealing or wrong? And are others' motivations and responses when dealing with you logical and sound or are they unreasonable responses?

6-In the end you have to come out with a conclusion or deduction of this position that you can apply and lead to more positive results when dealing with others. Or at least become more sympathetic and understanding of the other party's outlook in a future position or events.

For example, if you see that you cannot prevent your friend from treating you with rudeness, even though you have not offended him. But, only expressed an opinion he did not like, you can ignore this abuse that you found directed at yourself and then evaluate your previous opinion again.

If your opinion is true, it means that you are right and the other party is the loser. No matter the amount of irony and mockery of your opinion he shows.

If your opinion is likely to be wrong, it is best for your friend to show the mistake to reach a unified position towards the crisis. Instead of going away from the solution and insulting you with derision.

Your friend may not be able to deal with the crisis alone and needs you to help. And here he will become the loser by excluding you from the solution equation in such a brazen manner, in the end, you did not commit a crime. But, interacted with him as best you could and you will repeat this good behavior in any situation you pass. You are right in your behavior even though your opinion is not very correct.


Third: How to develop your social intelligence

Social intelligence is the ability to deal with others easily to influence them and convince them of ideas and desires that the owner of this intelligence thinks it is useful. Therefore, when you have this kind of intelligence means having the ability to interact with others and attract them to cooperate with you at all times and places.

The great leaders and the brilliant rulers have the distinction in this kind of intelligence, so they can lead and guide others towards great goals. At present, high social intelligence people employ their skills in jobs that require persuasion of others, such as advertising and selling.

Social intelligence consists of a combination of abilities and skills, including:

-Ability to sense the needs, motivations and interests of others, both explicit and implicit, This ability depends on the strength of the individual's observation of the signs and emotions that others produce and that appear on them through expressions of the face and the body. And also appear during the conversation, such as changing the tone of voice or the meaning of looks.

-Also, the ability to understand different social attitudes with great sensitivity and dealing with others with skill and politeness. All of these are indispensable when you try to achieve success on the personal and professional level.

How to develop your social intelligence:

There are a lot of tips and means that can help you develop your social intelligence, but we will briefly review two directions and they are. How to choose the people who are useful to you and how to make relationship with them. And also how to identify negative people and reduce their harm or bad impact on your life.

1. Identify useful people and try to be their friend

Talk to anyone! First, aim to talk to any stranger every day, and when you like it, increase it so that talking to strangers become  a natural part of your personality. Those with wider circles of friends are those who are used to talking to all who meet them. And even if this interview happened once, but some relationships will develop somewhere and somehow.

Start with your neighbors first: Have nice, short conversations with people who live near you like your neighbors and those working in local shops and facilities near you. Ask them seriously how they are, memorize their names and special things related to them such as their children, pets or work. However, avoids asking embarrassing personal questions and sticking to the neutral and safe areas. Sometimes innocent inquiries about the health situation of the person or his work or his family to displease him if he has problems.

Enter into new social activities: ask yourself first what your hobbies, activities and interests are, what places you like to go to, for example, for entertainment or for happy times.
In these places you are likely to meet a kind of people that can join your social circle.
Identify the best environments or places where people like you are located. Here, it will be your job to go frequently to these social networking places and expand your social circle more and more to develop your social intelligence more and more


2. The best deal with the destructive people who drain you

A. Complainers: There are a lot of people who see the world as a huge problem and therefore look at it with a black lens and complain constantly. And whatever goes well, you will see them focusing only on negative details and unimportant points! And you will see them also regularly catch the mistakes of others. And this dangerous habit is one of the worst habits that destroy social relations and turn them into enmities.

A mere bad hint or a simple negative signal from those disgruntled can upset your mood all day long. So, you have to sense these people and identify them to keep them out of your mind at all times, and here is your insignia (Not for destructive people who poison ideas).

However,  if you find it difficult to get rid of someone because it is your colleague in the work and must be with him in the same room. You have to make him change the positive side by explaining the result of his disgruntlement and his constant complaint, for example you can tell him:( When you tell me all the things that went wrong with you or the things you hate I feel very distressed! Please discuss some good or positive or useful things).

If he does not know any answer, choose a positive thing for him. For example, say to him: (Tell me how you spent your vacation or how you completed your new assignment quickly? Tell me about the device you bought recently and its benefits ....).

You may find him after a while back to the state of grumbling! And here, you should continue to return him back to the positive or neutral situation that adds to you excellent feelings repeatedly and repeatedly.

B. Discourages: Some people like to frustrate you and underestimate your thoughts by saying that you cannot do what you want and that your ambition is exaggerated. And the life is not so easy, claiming that they want what is in your benefit!! However, if you let them tell you this words, they will destroy your dreams while they are in its infancy.

It might be better if you kept your secrets and did not bark at others, but if you did and the other discouraged you, say to him and yourself also:( I will not stop chasing my dream and I will not leave my thoughts until I find it really useless. But, during this process I will learn, improve and develop myself more, and even if I do not achieve my dream, I will achieve many things during my journey).

you will need to fight those who are constantly discouraged. If you do not, you will weaken your enthusiasm and ultimately fail even before you take one step towards your goal.

C. Critics: a critic may be one of your family members or friends or bosses in the work and therefore everyone believes that he has the right to criticize your actions. This, of course, has a very bad effect, making you miserable and distrustful of yourself. It also makes you nervous and definitely unwilling to change for their opinions.

If you are criticized by one of your friends or relatives, you have to fight the impact of this bad criticism by saying to him: (when you show me my fault in this way I find myself in a defensive position. If what I am doing bothers you, tell me without attacking my intellect or personality. However, if you give me a suggestion that will improve what I do, I will take it into consideration and it will make a difference in my life).
Note that you will have to repeat this message several times before they stop criticizing you badly and hurtfully.


The criticism of your boss at work needs a response to tell him how to get the best you have without any injury to your feelings. And the best response is to tell him:( If you tell me about two things that I did well before you criticized me. You will get the best work I do from me because I will be eager to work harder).
And here is the important in your request that you provide to your boss (without complaint or grumble) as a benefit or opportunity by suggesting that presenting your past good work will make you more efficient in the future.
Of course you can think of other responses like this and then take your time to figure out how to show it to your boss.


Fourthly: How to develop your Visual Intelligence

What is Visual or Spatial Intelligence?

It means the ability to imagine in general and to think about the image of objects and anthropomorphic through visualization. With the ability to modify this visual thinking or visualization in the mind before the person translated into reality.
Also this intelligence means the ability to use space or vacuum in all its forms, such as the ability to measure the approximate distances just by looking! Or the ability to evaluate the distance from a specific building or geographic location or to compare two things according to shape or space. This is why humans use this ability to read maps, tables, diagrams and visualize spaces. So there are too many labels for visual intelligence such as imaginative intelligence, intelligence of images, spatial intelligence or locative intelligence.


That is, visual intelligence (or intelligence of images) represents the mental system responsible for handling and storing all real or imagined visual images. So that the human being can finally assemble and visualize a complete picture of parts that are not integrated.

When your eyes go through a particular shape or pattern, your visual intelligence instantly sweeps through millions of images-already stored in your memory-in search of what corresponds to that shape or pattern. If something is found, it tells you about similar form and information about it to reach a preliminary understanding of this form or the incomprehensible pattern that you have seen.

For example, in a country trip, you can distinguish birds species from very long distances by flight style. Or by the bird stood on a branch of a tree or through the length of its tail. In this way, your visual intelligence transforms those shapes and parts of the images and patterns you see into an integrated image with a clear meaning.

Visual intelligence includes several capabilities:

1-spatial awareness:

The ability of the human mind to perception the movement of objects in the vacuum. And also its ability to solve problems that include a space feature, such as the ability of man to use the four directions in locating his way easily. Or even by knowing the nearest place where he knows his direction. So, he can go to any place easily because he remembers well the places he visited.

How to Develop your Visual Intelligence:


The best way to develop your visual intelligence is to develop your ability to imagine. Imagination means your ability to portray things, tools, people, and events in your mind fantastically.

The more complex the image of the thing or the plot of the event in your mind the wider and the better your imagination. And the better your imagination the better your visual intelligence significantly.


There are three effective methods for developing visual intelligence through visualization which:


1-Develop your visual memory using imagination

In order to improve your visual memory, which is the basis of your visual intelligence, we recommend reading fairy tales or fictional novel full of improbable events. It is the best way to develop your ability to imagine because when you read, your mind creates images of things, people, and events against your will! You may even hear the talk you imagine among the characters of the story, but in your imagination.


After reading one of the chapters of the fictional novel. Lie on your bed or on a comfortable sofa and then close your eyes and restore the scenes of the novel in your mind. Which should be images that are visible in color.
Continue this visualization process until you finish imagining all the events of the novel chapter. You can repeat this entire process by improving the scenes of things and characters in your imagination, and you can definitely move events as you like.


2-Learn skills using imagination:

-Use your imagination to create a list of the work you have in your day. Where you only imagine an expressive picture of every task or job you have to do during the day. Then, you review the entire visible list in your mind, we prefer to do this exercise after waking up from sleep and before you get up from your bed.


-Before you perform a task or before you make a short trip, imagine how you do your job before you do it. Or imagine footage of your business trip before you do it. This will help you anticipate any difficulties or problems you will encounter during the mission or trip in order to prepare for it.


-If you want to learn or improve any technical or artistic skill you like. Imagine yourself doing the skill you want to acquire, imagine yourself doing it as much as you do any skill you actually possess. It stimulates brain cells and nerves to prepare to absorb the movements and techniques of this skill. So, you will be able to acquire the skill in the shortest possible time!



3-Change behavior and bad habits using imagination

Psychologists say that before a person does anything, in no time his mind makes a mental image of what he should do! Even if he does not fully understand or be conscious of it. For example, before you descend the stairs of the house where you live, your mind imagines your body going down. And over time, a picture of the act or the behavior is installed in the mind. And from the large performance of this act or behavior, the behavior becomes automatic! You do not think at all because you act according to the image stored in your brain.

This explains the secret of the failure of most people to change their bad habits because man behaves according to the usual picture of this bad habit in his mind. For example, many people like to eat meals rich in fats and carbohydrates in noonday meals because the image installed in their brain that noonday meals should be fatty!

Also who has the habit of nibbling or bite his nails when he is very nervous or worried. He finds himself acting the same behavior repeatedly because there is a picture in his mind that drives him to do this behavior as a way to relieve tension.

Which we understand from this psychological principle that you cannot change your manners and your bad behavior until you first change this image (the unconscious) in your imagination, which prompts you to act automatically according to this image and its synonym of manners and behaviors.

The best solution is to use your ability to imagine to change this image that drives you to act. Or do an undesirable spontaneous reaction to another image that has a desirable behavior and a true positive reaction. And this method is one of the best benefits of imagination. For example, if you like to eat fatty meals rich in fats and carbohydrates and you know that it will become a problem over the days. You can imagine your appetite for a light, healthy and delicious meal of nutritious foods with many vegetables and fruits. And do not only give you any health problems, but treat them.

Also if you are experiencing stress when the work pressure increases and want to get rid of this bad feeling and not only that! You want to be confident that you will finish all your work even at the most stressful hours of work. All you have to do is to imagine a lot of yourself have finished your work and you are full of happiness. And by repeating this new image you will find it in your mind eventually and the old image that causing a feeling of tension will fade away.



Fifthly: How to Improve Your Logical Intelligence

Logical intelligence means arranging and building facts on one another to reach meaningful results, as the basis of logical intelligence revolves around the idea of 2 + 2 = 4, it represents the analytical and structural capabilities of the person and his abstract thinking abilities to solve intellectual problems.

The goal of logical intelligence simply is to decide whether things mean something or not or add something or not! As an example, there are a lot of phrases that come out of your logical intelligence such as:
The reason for my weight gains in recent months is eating many  pancakes at dinner.
The improvement in my academic level was due to the increase in the number of hours I spent  in my studies.


Some people believe that logical intelligence is difficult to attain and that it is the most difficult type of intelligence, although it is easy with constant training. You have three practical methods that you can practice daily to develop your logical intelligence.


First-The discovery of false logic:

You are often deceived by others who try to mislead you by using false logic, such as putting some words and facts side by side to mean something they mean. But, it really means something else, and what makes false logic succeed is the ability of the owner to distract your attention from the right logic in crooked ways. However, your logical intelligence can discover any logic deliberately misleading by training correctly and repeatedly to detect methods of counterfeiting and misinformation.


So let's get to know about the seven mental traps that are set by whom promote false logic to us:


1-The false certification!

Is an attempt to prove the truth of what the speaker claims through the testimony of others, which are two types:


An expert certification: the fact that the person is an expert does not make him right all the time. He may make a mistake in diagnosing the situation, his opinion may also be based on a situation similar to a situation of the person trying to prove his case. And finally the issue can have several opinions and solutions and therefore we see a lot of experts who work in the same field differ among themselves.


The certification of a celebrity: it does not mean that the person is famous and well-known he is also very experienced in the field under discussion, he may not know anything about it.


2-Wrong comparison

To confuse matters and mix things up on your understanding, they make a comparison between two things that cannot be compared to reach a result in their favor. For example, one might say, "People in this world, like wolves, if you overlooked them, they will eat you!". And of course not all people are wolves, but many of them are more lame than lambs!


3-False generalizations

Generalization is a term that connects two or more concepts to reach a meaningful conclusion, such as the saying: "There are no higher civilizations and lower civilizations in this world" because civilization aims at reaching the highest level of life! But, in the process of false generalization occurs either a link between concepts that have nothing between each other so we reach the wrong result. Or the concepts are linked to justify the wrong result.


We see these incorrect generalizations in two forms:

-Wrong generalizations
: such as saying "because you do not visit me or call me then you do not like me and I am not my friend"


-Hasty generalizations: The speaker jumps to the result before weighing all the evidence and based on the minimum amount of knowledge,
as an example: "My article has been impressed by five of my friends and so when I posted it on my site my article will be admired by millions of people!"


4-An attempt to establish a relationship between the occurrence of two consecutive things:

As an example "since I started to use this mobile phone and I suffer from pain in my teeth! Sure that the rays emitted from this phone was the reason behind it!"


5-Fake option:

In order to discourage you from a certain direction or choice, they will confirm that all the consequences of this choice will be negative. But, this logic is misleading as there are positive possibilities for this choice as well.


6-Attacking the person and not his thoughts:

In order not to accept any ideas or suggestions from a particular person even if it is useful, and this attack takes two basic forms:
Attacking the same person: In order to justify the rejection of everything he says or suggests because of some of the previous mistakes or uncomfortable statements issued by him.
Attacking a person because of his or her social connections: This is done with the aim of justifying rejection and not being interested in everything that is permitted because he has social connections from unreliable acquaintances and not trusted followers.


7-Exploitation of sympathy:

In order to overlook the weakness of their idea, they provide a description that drives emotions and makes you sympathize with them without discussing them about their idea and its weaknesses. For example, they may say, "Our plan is necessary for one million children suffering from hunger and if you helped with your donations will receive nutritious meals" and here you are fooled by sympathy with these hungry and miserable children in order not to ask the most important questions such as:
How did you identify the number of hungry children exactly? Can you actually provide meals daily for this huge number of children? How many subscribers and supporter are with you in your plan?


You can train your mind to discover these traps by watching one of the talk shows on television. And trying to observe how one of the parties presenting his ideas and views. And at the same time observe how he criticizes the other party. And you will be astonished by the development of your logical intelligence to a terrible degree if you can do these two simple things during the listening process:


-Observe whether the evidence supports the idea or does not support the idea:
Example: "When you make five accidents in six months that means you have not improved in driving!"


-Observe whether the two things or ideas add to each other or does not to justify the result:
Example: "I think going out to work in light clothes during the winter may have something to do with the cold that hit me."
This is the synonym to add two to two to get four in the sense of arranging and building facts on each other to reach the results.


You may also need to write a small paper with the titles of these traps, and whenever one of the parties making a pseudo-logical trap, mark next to the name of the trap and in the end you count  the marks to know, which is more experienced in methods of mental deception!



Second-Refute and disprove your false beliefs that are entrenched in your mind

Beliefs are the firm assumptions that we believe on the basis of our incomplete understanding of the world, it is an authoritative judgment of the mind that accepts doubt but nevertheless indicates pride in a certain opinion.
These beliefs are derived from our opinions and conclusions and opinions of those we trust in and perhaps from the experiences and attitudes we have experienced. And also the belief may arise from the imparting and teaching of a certain authority, and these beliefs affect us. But, we do not know the impact on our behavior and that because these beliefs lie under the surface of the consciousness. And therefore we do not realize its existence consciously.

 Our beliefs do not always reflect reality, but only what we believe, therefore, if these beliefs are based on an improper basis. It will hurt you by guiding you in the wrong directions and may destroy you and destroy those who take responsible of them. Thus, by revealing your false beliefs, this gives you the opportunity to redraft your entire mindset to be closer to truth and more firmly based on it. And continuing to change your false beliefs will help you to quickly develop your logical intelligence for the better.


How to discover your false beliefs?

Here's the exercise: sit for half an hour and write down many of your beliefs, which often begin with the word: "I think ........
Example: I think males are better than females!!


How to strip yourself of an old negative belief?!

Choose one of the least positive beliefs and review them critically. For example, "masculinity privilege" is a term for social, economic, and political benefits or rights that are only available to men on the basis of their sex, a man's access to these benefits may also depend on other characteristics such as race, sexual orientation, and social nature.
Ask yourself first: "Do you think males are better than females in general?" You may need to answer this question with a living conscience for some time.
If you know that this belief is not correct-perhaps after a deep thought or after a certain experience-you will need to think about its confusing effect on your behavior and the restraints of your actions. And you will ask yourself again, "What is the right and the best belief in order to behave optimally?


Third-Take the adventure and travel!

 The best practical way to develop your logical intelligence is to venture! Have you tried out on a safari trip in the desert and visit an oasis? Have you ever dived?
What about traveling to a new city? Whatever your country, why not visit another city in your country?


First, search the internet for a city you like to visit and know its main features on the map. Then take the adventure and go to spend a day or more as you can in order to know its people and streets.
Look for its main features such as its monuments, distinctive buildings, public buildings or Coffee shops. There is no city in the world that does not feature anything! All of the adventures that prepare you with a lot of excitement and learning and gain early experience. And it will help you "a lot" in developing your logical intelligence to solve the problems that will inevitably encounter you during your trips, do you dare?!


Sixthly: How to develop your physical intelligence

Physical intelligence is the ability of the person to control the exact and appropriate movements of his body to reach the performance of a task that cannot be done without the operation of the body in a certain way, as athletes, swimmers, tumblers, actors and artisans do.

Physical intelligence people were characterized by the fact that they prefer movement and rely heavily on it. And learn by using hands and body movement in general such as learning through act and physical movements more than they learn through singing and listening to lectures and stories.

We suggest several effective and simple methods to develop your physical intelligence Like:

1-Find a new hobby related to manual skills

Choose a hobby for yourself has a relation with hand-based industries that use simple tools and cheap natural materials such as gardening or Production of metallic hardware, Embroidery and stitching, Works of woodwork, Manufacturing stained-glass windows…

When you choose a hobby with a skilled technique or craft, you will force your brain to work in a way it never did before. And these manual skills work directly on developing your physical intelligence through learning and acquiring skills as well as developing your creative work.

You may need to take some lessons from specialists in this hobby before you implement some of her skills, and you have to be sure that you will make a lot of mistakes when you take the first steps, but this is very natural!

To become more physical intelligent you have to learn new things and try to run your brain in different ways by using the brain areas that are not normally used! And that control a lot of your physical movements, the brain becomes more youthful with the abundance of information is widely received and used.

And here we will not tell you that you need a certain number of hours to master this manual skill. We will not pressure you because the matter is not to access the professorship in this skill or craft but to develop your physical intelligence. So try daily to understand the information or collect a bit of knowledge. No matter how simple it is, this is the best exercise that makes your brain in the prime of youth!

All you have to do is to work on this hobby or handcraft periodically to skip the beginner stage, which is the first stage of the mastery process. And then you can decide whether you will continue to work or will move to another hobby or craft that excites your passion more.

2-Exercise continuously

-Play sports you like
 Exercise regularly contributes to the development of your physical abilities we all know this. For example, including some simple exercise or running in your daily routine can help you activate the body's circulation. Exercise on a daily basis also helps increase the production of hemoglobin in your blood to meet the body's excessive demand for oxygen and increasing the proportion of oxygen in your blood which means the arrival of more oxygen to the brain.

However,  sports have other characteristics as they contribute to the development of physical intelligence also through the development of motor body skills!

Do some light exercise that does not cause physical and mental stress, but only increases your mental and psychological activity. If you like a particular sport, there are many clubs where you can play your favorite sport. You can participate in a sports center to practice sport under the supervision of a coach, but you have to take care of your body. All the parts and organs of the human body are Linked and connected.

You cannot take care of some parts and neglect others, and you certainly cannot focus when something hurts or irritates you.

-Buy a bike to keep your body active: If you want to exercise for 60 minutes and then, change your mind after the first six attempts to push-up exercise, simply buy a bike!

What do you think of buying a bike that changes your lifestyle and gives you joy and excitement! Buying a bicycle will also improve your physical intelligence, it changes from your usual routine to the best and you can use it as a cheap and easy transport.

-Do simple physical activity continuously such as climbing stairs!

Did you know that the stairs climbing keeps the health and youth of your brain!! The climb of stairs has traditionally been associated with maintaining body health and fitness. But, a recent Canadian study has also linked it to keeping a healthy and youth brain whenever a person ages.

According to a study conducted by researchers at the University of Concordia, when people climb more stairs, the brain becomes more young and healthy. And this means that the brain of this person did not suffer much loss of nerve cells as the body of the same person when he becomes old.

The researchers used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology to examine the brains of 331 healthy adults aged from 19 to 79 years to determine the size of the gray matter in each person's brain at each age and to estimate the extent of brain shrinkage by losing nerve cells as a person ages.

The researchers then compared the size of the gray matter in each person's brain and what, was recorded on the average climb of the stairs daily. And found an inverse relationship between the frequent of climbing stairs and the shrinkage of gray matter in the brain. Where the researchers found that the age of the brain decreases by 0.58 years for each group of stairs on average ten step climbed by the human daily.

The researchers said the results of their studies support campaigns that call for the abandonment of elevators and using of stairs. But, that this abandonment of elevators should be circulated to the older people, as this will help them maintain the health and youth of their brains.

Which we come out of this study: go up the stairs when you found it!! The best way to keep the youth of your brain is to exercise! And the simplest thing to do is to climb the staircase of your house or any staircase instead of using the elevator.

3-Do breathing exercises before making any effort

The best advice of psychiatrists and neurologists to keep the brain in a state of youth and a renewed health while being motivated to perform any difficult physical task is to relax with the practice of breathing exercises. These exercises stimulate blood circulation, which means more brain supply of blood with nutrients and more oxygen needed by the brain.

These exercises also reduce the brain's loss of nerve cells, plus make the brain neurons active and helps it to grow and perform the functions best. And in this way breathing exercises increases the intelligence and vigilance, it also develops the abilities of the creative mind. And also strengthens the memory of the regularly practitioners, which ultimately affects positively the brain's work and its impact on the individual's physical potential.

Before you make any hard physical effort, or start performing your favorite sports exercises or even before you get out of your bed. You should do this slow breathing exercise to supply your mind with more oxygen, blood and nourishment.

How to perform a slow breathing exercise:

To do this slow breathing exercise, lie down on the bed or on a comfortable chair, with your forearms resting on the chair arms to expand your lungs.

Take a deep breath with the counting up to figure (4) and then hold the breath for two seconds and then release a slow exhale with counting up to the number (4).

Continue performing this exercise for five minutes and you will find that you have become active and sharp-minded and ready to make a greater effort
