dont follow lay people dude, yes cross word puzzles and or high brain situlated things would work, but lets face it. it all comes done to your nutrition, if you increase antioxidants and phytochemmicals food mostly in veggies and fruits, whole grains lean meats non or low fat milk, and the omega 3 fatty acid (your brain is 60% fat) the DHA is the best compent of omega 3 for the brain, (get it mosyly from fish/fish oil, and to a lesser extent flaxseeds and flaxseed oil (some people cant convert the flax to the DHA) for antioxidants try eating healthy so your internal antioxidant enxymes function better and your mictrocodra in the cells produce maxuim energy, then you'll learn fairly rapidly (alpha lopic acid is an all purpose diverse antioxidant protecting like all of the cell and regenerating all ther anti oxidants from its free radical forms back to its functional form. with out comprmising itself shit like that dude, study nutrition and antioxidants, it might pervent the  degerative diseases that 85% of us will get

I am doctor, what I should suggest is to consult some psychiatrist rather then general physcian. Once discussing same " thought blocking" illusion with a professor, he advised to have "short thoughts" rather than making big plans. So I would say you must have small plans, short acting plans and things which you can get within hours, days or weeks. This will promote your thinking abilities. Contrary, if you make big plans, your "thought blocking" illusion will be multiplied. ( sorry for spellings as I am in hurry)

Memory power can be increased by a very simple method....daily before going to bed recall what happened in that day this will help you to delete few unwanted thoughts in your mind....avoid unwanted things ..that is dont stress on too much when you know a thing is crap...if you are asking it for a exam point of view..then 10 days before  the exam dont watch any video including your tv soaps and news.....because video tends to erase what you learnt if you want to un wind ....listen to music ......this way you can save space  in your mind...for you to fill half the time memory is lost due to deletion of the stuff from mind....therefore try this out it will surely work..

Yes, absolutely. Take some college courses, educate yourself, or just keep stimulating your brain on a daily basis.

Improving Your Memory\n\n1) Really think about you want to remember. If you wish to enter information into long-term memory, it is important to think about it. Ask questions about it, consider its meaning, and examine its relationship to information you already know. In other words, engage in “deep processing”. Doing so will help make the new information part of your existing knowledge frameworks – and increase your chances of remembering it at a later time.\n\n2) Pay careful attention to what you really want to remember. Unless you pay careful attention to information you want to remember, it stands little chance of really getting in” – into long-term memory. So, be sure to direct your full attention to the information you want to remember. True, it involves a bit of hard work, but in the long run, it will save you time and effort.\n\n3) Minimize interference. Interference is a major cause of forgetting, and, in general, the more similar materials are, the more likely they are to produce interference. In practical terms, this means that you should arrange your studying so that you don’t study similar objects one right after the other. Instead, work on subjects that are unrelated: the result may be less interference between them, better grades.\n\n4) Engage in distributed learning/practice. Don’t try to cram all the information you want to memorize into long-term storage at once. Rather, if possible, space your studying over several sessions – preferably several days. This is especially true if you want to retain the information for long periods of time rather than just the next examination.\n\n5) Use visual imagery and other mnemonics. You’ve probably already heard the saying ‘a picture is worth a thousand words’. Where memory is concerned, this is sometimes true; it is often easier to remember information associated with vivid mental images (e.g., Gehrig & Toglia, 1989). You can put this principle to use by adopting any one of several different mnemonics – tactics for improving memory. One of these, the method of loci, involves linking points you want to remember with visual images arranged in some familiar order. For instance, suppose you want to remember the points in a speech you will soon be delivering. You can imagine walking through some familiar place, say, your own home. Then, form a series of images in which each item you wish to remember is placed in a specific location. Perhaps the first point is “The greenhouse effect is real”. You might imagine a large, steamy greenhouse right outside your front door. The next point might be “Cutting down the rain forest is increasing the greenhouse effect”. For this one, you might imagine a large, cut down tree in your living room. You would form other images, in a different location, for the other points you want to make. Then, by taking an imaginary walk through your house, you can “see” each of these images and thus remember the points in your speech.\n\n6) Give yourself retrieval clues. Remember the concept of state-dependent retrieval? As noted previously, you can use this principle to provide yourself with extra retrieval cues and so help enhance your memory. For instance, if you studied for a test while in a physical state, try to be in the same state when you take it – this may help. Similarly, use the principle of mood-dependent memory. If you learned some material while in a given mood and then want to remember it, try to put yourself in this same mood. This is not as hard as it may sound: you can often vary your own mood by imagining happy or sad events. To the degree that your mood now matches your mood when you learned the information, your memory may be enhanced for it.\n\n7) Develop your own shortcut codes. To learn the names of the planets in our solar system, many children use the first letter technique, in which the first letter of each word in a phrase stands for an item to be remembered. So, the sentence “Mary’s Viol

Yes, of course.\n\nYour brain is like a lot of muscles - if untrained, it works less well.\n\nWith regular training and thinking, especially "thinking around the bend" or "thinking out of the box" you will boost your capacity.\n\nProbably, even with the best training you won't reach the brain capacity of Einstein, but you will notice great improvements.

Take a high-potency vitamin with lotsa antioxidants and find a brain health supplement that contains as many of these brain health nutrients as possible: Acetyl-L Carnitine, DHA, Phosphatidylserine, Choline, Ginkgo Biloba, L-Glutamine, L-Pyroglutamic acid, L-Tyrosine. They really spark up the brain.

You need to read it, say it, highlight it.  That way you are using every part of your brain.  Plus going to class also helps!

IQ is something that measures our "intelligence" (it stands for "intelligence quotient") and a lot of it is down to your innate ability to process and retain information, work out complex problems etc. However, there are things you can do to stimulate your mind which may in turn help to improve your IQ score. \n\nRead! Yes, this is first because in order to improve your IQ you must read. But before you reach out for that worn-out paperback (a story you've read a million times) read a new book, a different book...a book from a completely different genre than what you're used to. You usually read mystery? Good, now go ahead and read some comedy. Only fiction? Go grab a biography. Read everything and anything (this includes articles, etc...). \n\nTry writing with your opposite hand. Some people claim that if you write with your opposite hand then your IQ goes up, because your brain is not used to writing with that other hand and is forced to work harder. However, if you're ambidextrous, that's great.. try writing with both hands at once, and try writing different things with different hands at once. \n\nWrite out long letters. Thinking about emailing your aunt that thank you letter? Forget it, write it out by hand. \n\nPlay video games. However, don't play that game you're always playing. Try a new game, something you've never played before. It will stimulate your mind and help you to think differently. \n\nWork on cryptology. This is when a message is written in codes and you try to figure it out...it's hard, but after a while it's fun. \n\nCrosswords and Sudoku..basically anything that stimulates the mind and that completely frustrates you because you just can't get it.

If you want an energizer do a web search for 'brain gym'. It's supposed to help activate both sides of the brain for better comprehension and retention. They'll be standing up and moving (in place) so they'll be wide awake.

Yeah...special powers would most definitely help....my special power is mind control....!

Make sure you eat well (particularly low GI food, as it will give you a boost over an extended period rather than something like chocolate which picks you up for 5 minutes and then dumps you again worse than you were before!).  Drink plenty of water, eat regularly, Bananas are supposed to be brain food, as is anything containing lots of Vitamin B.\n\nDon't stay up late, make sure you sleep well (8 hours a night!).\n\nApparantly Co Enzyme Q10 is supposed to help things like memory, as is Gingko and Ginseng - I find that two latter things make me hyper, but it is different for everyone!
