Jason Silva on Use It or Lose It | Brain Games

thinking is the kind of exercise of the
mind we know that crossword puzzles and
mathematical experiments are set to
stretch almost in a way stretch our
synapses is stretch our thinking and
stretch our brains but I mean that kind
of makes sense to me we know all this
all these studies have come out with the
neuro plasticity of the brain and that
we can design certain experiments that
kind of exercise certain cognitive
faculties when you think outside the box
you see the world a new habit and
routine if deadening you become blind
anything that’s always around thinking
inside the box means thinking out of
context means pulling yourself out of
context means changing up your situation
and the triggers the trigger you’re
thinking the usual thought habits
decondition you’re thinking this is a
very important thing for any kind of
creative person to do because I think
that it just forces the brain to engage
with the world as if the world were new
all over
