A Beautiful MindChange Your Brain, Change your Life..

My StoryWhen I started schooling I was not a good student always try to escape from studies but I always do love Math & Science. But those subject need extra brain activities that I didn't’t provide at that time, my brain worked like a cat’s brain always wanted to sleep, eat and play, that's why I didn’t

achieve my goal and left studies.

My Story

I took a long break from studies and after sometime I realized my brain has become a junkyard and it accepted that it can’t do anything hard. I decided to start my studies once more, I prepared my mind for this hard task and took admission in computer science I learnt computer languages and programming, it was hard but I want to change my life so I did it..

Decisions

But I always think about my science subjects but my brain gave up and getting weaker day by day. I was so worried and tense because I forgot things and names my memory became weaker and couldn’t remember anything in proper way. I decided to study online.

Change in LifeNow I’m very excited, when I saw the course about “Learning how to learn", I'm very thankful to our great teachers Dr. Terence Sejnowshi and Dr. Barbara Oakley they are sharing their precious knowledge and their life experiences with us, that made my life totally changed now

I’m thinking about to achieve my goal in new way.

Its just a beginning

After taking my first lecture I seriously thinking about to learn physics and math, I want to check my brain ability. At first I didn't’t understand any thing then I thought about focused mode, I tried to focused on math’s problem it was hard but not impossible, I take a break for a while ,but

my diffuse mode continuously working on it and making connection with focused mode. Slowly and gradually I solved all Calculus problem I was so excited its working I never think in that way.

Making Chunks

Its was exciting experience so I decided to learn physics too its also quite difficult subject. I collected all information and knowledge about basic physics its like making chunks when I took my first lecture about Astrophysics I was happy because I’m not

an alien anymore in science world where I make connections between those chunks, making new chunks and connect to each other like calculus and physic numerical.

Pomodoro Technique

Its an awesome technique to learn anything quickly, I daily use this technique to learn my lessons ,to turn off all my devices and TV and do fully concentrate on those tasks. I got positive result I’m learning so fast then I take a break for few minutes and do it again, its really helpful for me at least..

Sleeping and WorkoutI love sleep after finish my lessons, assignments and math problem my brain get jammed I go for walk and do workout exercises, it makes my mind fresh and healthy and I always take 9 to 10 hours sleep. I know its gross but my mind take lot of rest to prepare for next task. Exercises are necessary like breathing exercises, inhale deeply through

nose hold the breath and exhale completely from mouth. These exercises will help rewire the neural pathways to help you to think more positively, become more self aware, focus better understand social cues, ease your emotional triggers and grow more resilient.

Deactivating and reactivating your Goal

Focusing so hard on one thing for a long time is not good ,you get bored and lose your interest. Mental break is very necessary. So I always try new things to study new topics but want to remain stick with my desires my favorite subject Math. Those new topics make me feel good and fresh so I never get bored. When I feel so tired and bored I left math for few days and concentrate on other subject, it means I deactivate my math mode but when I miss my subject badly I reactivate my math mode and do my work more passionately. Always try to learn something new its better for mental health.

How to beat Procrastination

Its very difficult job those zombies always show you a heaven which doesn't’t exist and you have become fool. To avoid those zombies I always make my to do list and I always try to do hard task first and complete all my task as soon as possible without delay.

Always give reward myself.

• Things I learnt from LHTL

I learnt a lot from this course and I’m so grateful to all teacher for their support. I want to share some thoughts which are useful in my learning process.

Never think you can’t do it always try your best.

Do work hard and give some time to your brain it will catch gradually and slowly.

Learn new things and always stick with your goal.

Motivate yourself and keep trying.
