Including new items and bests.

Many of us want to generate unusual ideas, work more productively and remember more - but often our own brain gets in the way of a bright life, which needs only pictures with cats in social networks. We offer you 7 books that will help cheer up your head and put your gray matter in order.

We can all be three times better than now, but how to achieve this? Professional coach Roger Sipe believes that we need to use our brains more effectively and suggests that we develop them. Of course, this is not without common truths - to become a model of productivity, you will have to get rid of useless activities (which include extra hours of sleep), stop worrying about trifles, and constantly push yourself out of your comfort zone. And then the author moves on to specific practices - shows how to better remember information, speed up reading by doing exercises for the eyes, and help the brain cope with tasks faster by setting priorities.

Biologist John Medina believes that you don't need special exercises to increase your productivity - you just need to understand how our brain works. And here the author deduced 12 rules. For example, the brain can hold attention for only ten minutes, after which it should rest by switching to another object. Women better remember the details of what happened, and men get to the heart of the problem faster. Just 26 minutes of sleep will increase your performance by a third. The book will help you understand your own head and find a common language with it.

The author of "Remember Everything" really remembers everything - for example, the number Pi up to 22528 decimal places. Such a person can clearly be trusted in the development of memory. First, the author understands how it works - for example, personal experience, enthusiasm and the desire to share information with other people help to remember even the smallest details, and excessive emotionality or lack of interest, on the contrary, reduces our effectiveness. Then you will learn specific practices - you will begin to remember words better by studying foreign languages, keep in mind to-do lists and lectures, do not forget the names of new acquaintances and important dates. So, in order to memorize the meaning of complex words, it is enough to select the correct associations for them: a collision is a collision, there were battles in the Colosseum, that is, a collision, a collision - the Colosseum, done! The main thing is to know the right technique.

Why do some people gush with unusual ideas, while others resigned themselves to dullness? Dmitry Chernyshev sees the root of the problem in the fact that we put life into automatic mode, without giving ourselves a reason to think. To get out of this trance, we need to consciously set ourselves tasks and turn on the brain - for example, solve riddles. Do not assume that the author exaggerates the problem - the modern world really leaves us no room for thought: films fascinate with vivid special effects, video games - with incredible graphics. "How People Think" is a visual journey through the mind of a modern person, where each chapter tries to unbalance the reader and teach him to think.

5. Mark Williams and Danny Penman Mindfulness

We load our brains with a bunch of information that causes stress and, in turn, loads us even more. According to psychologist Mark Williams and biochemist Danny Penman, meditation will help get out of the vicious circle - but not Buddhist, but modern, developed by a scientific team and approved by the British Ministry of Health. And if the other books in our selection teach you to think in a new way, then Mindfulness will first ask you to ... turn off your head, calm down and cope with the flow of random ideas. Mindfulness exercises help to structure the mind and keep the brain out of control. Starting with a simple meditation in which you will simply follow your breath, the authors will gradually move on to more complex exercises, bringing life out of an automatic state. This book is a great addition to "How People Think" by Dmitry Chernyshev.

Life is pain and there's nothing you can do about it. But if some are broken by the slightest problems, then others can withstand serious blows of fate and become only stronger. "Invincible Mind" shows how to get into their number. This book is not about achieving happiness, but about how not to go astray on the way to it. Practitioner Alex Lickerman suggests restructuring your mind - not running away from problems, but perceiving them as a source of strength, not waiting for the best, but knowing that there will be obstacles in your path. This is an extremely harsh, but at the same time extremely honest book.

Flexibility helps you get rid of one of the most dangerous thinking errors - the idea that your abilities are determined at birth. Wanting to praise their children, parents from a young age convince them that they are incredibly talented, and thus stop their personal growth. Subsequently, they intervene school teachers, highlighting the excellent students and favorites. Carol Dweck believes that people need to give up fixed mindsets from a very early age, because our mind works differently - being flexible, it allows us to grow and become better, constantly realizing that any weakness can be turned into your strength.
