Also try getting PDF papers and searching online for relevant information. When doing this it’s really good to try finding the same type of information on several sources and seeing which one is the easier to understand.

Example: I go on Google and search for brain diagrams and after that I compare the first 5 images and choose the easiest one to understand.

There is also a great app called Peak which has series of daily activities you can do and this really helps expand your skills and thinking capacity and really pushes you to improve so you can learn and do tasks easier.

Online courses

Many websites offer to teach you but often comes with a price. But if you don’t mind spending a few bucks a session the go ahead and do so. These websites often have tasks you need to do and also let you talk to other professionals and overall help you to get better at that topic.

With online course you are usually given deadlines and have a lot tools to help you out to get started. Websites like Myimaths usually give you tasks that have due dates on them and your job is to research on that particular question look at some examples that explain in depth and give it a shot.

When you ask a question in less than minutes you’ll get the answer which will help you grow quicker and understand the topic better.


Learning applications

As I mentioned before, there are hundreds of great learning applications out there just waiting to be discovered and job is to find the best one that suits you. You can basically learn anything you want to because apps nowadays can be extremely focused to one topic.

The best thing about learning applications like this is that you can find really deep information about one topic and if you feel like learning more they offer the premium version of that application for a couple of dollars.

Learning applications are usually packed with a lot of information and activities inside to help you reinforce the memory. This can be in a form of multiple choice questions, quizzes and fill-ins which make forces you to recall information in different areas of the subject.

Educational Games

As much as it can seem a bit impractical studies show that playing educational games actually makes you focus more and boost your intelligence. I’m not saying you should just be playing games whenever you feel like it but you should at least learn something valuable while playing them.

The thing that makes educational games do well is that they are really engaging and have a real sense of value deep inside the system. You can even compete with individuals around the world on a particular topic and earn some prizes along the way.

Don’t just take educational games just as school applications or something that is just filled with thousands of math questions but anything that involves puzzles and strategy is educational and is meant to really challenge you which enhances your intelligence because you are able to apply different strategies to get the result you’re looking for.


Websites 

This is extremely helpful because not only is there thousands of information out there on the web but you can also look for information that is the most easiest to understand. Although this is a bit time consuming the effects are huge. Studies show that some students prefer online notes than textbook ones because the ones you find online might me more flexible and more understanding than the one’s in the book.

When you search different keywords on Google you find thousands of websites that offer their content and you can look through different websites to get the information you are looking for. Not only are you free to go to these websites but you can choose the piece of information that is easy for you to understand.

Group discussions 

There are some websites that let other people share information to everyone that needs the information. A lot of users tend to be online on these kinds of sites because not only can you learn but you can write about your favorite topic or just have general discussions.

When you have certain questions don’t be afraid to go to sites like quora and ask. Hundreds of people most likely to respond and that same question and when you search for a question on a search engine like Google you might have been redirected to Quora and found the answer you were looking for.

YouTube

Make sure to visit YouTube because hundreds of thousands of people upload educational videos that are most likely to help you a lot. When watching videos make sure to take short notes and use various methods and techniques in this book to help you.

When using YouTube before you get into anything deep you should write down a list of topics and classes you want to look videos for and pay attention to the views on the search page. One of the best teachers of YouTube I recommend is crashcourse.

Free tip: make sure to use genyoutube.net if you want to download YouTube videos.

Presentations

After reading your material compile them into a PowerPoint presentation with relevant crucial notes and try to go over it a few times so there’s no misplaced information. Then you’ve just hacked your way to having your own ultimate notes.

Pro tip: make use of pictures and segmented notes to make viewing easier and better.

Try to find more ways the tech you use all the time can help you grow your mind and make it extremely strong and flexible.

Forums

A forum is basically a website that has a posts by the users on a particular subject this can basically be anything you can think about such as technology, Food, Buildings, Gaming etc. To use this to your advantage you can ask as much questions as you can possibly think of.

On average they’re hundreds of thousands or even millions of members on that forum that ask and answer questions from all around the world. Instead of relying on Google to provide you answers make sure to look deep into forums because they have something deep t offer.
