READ: Exercise your brain-Knowledge is Power/THE MIND IS THE BEST WEAPON...


"Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body."

THE BEST WEAPON IS THE MIND...

-You think your ENEMIES are going to stand still while you shoot them? What if you're leading men or responsible for people other than yourself?
-What if you're outnumbered, unarmed? You have to Think, Plan, and Strategize.
-What if you're in a harse environment with no food, water, and shelter? You have to IMPROVISE, ADAPT, AND OVERCOME.
-What about preventing the onset of Alzheimer disease...
-What about keeping your Mind and Body Active to live a long and healthy life. To be independent. To see your children and their children grow.

"A man practices the art of adventure when he breaks the chain of routine and renews his life through reading new books, traveling to new places, making new friends, taking up new hobbies and adopting new viewpoints"...Wilfred Peterson

How to Exercise an Open Mind...

Simply put, doing unique, random, different, and ridiculous things is a good way to exercise the mind and promote new ways of thinking about the world around us. One hour of increased brain activity via thinking a lot or experiencing new stimuli can make you smarter, more energetic, more creative, more sociable, and more open to new experiences and ways of thinking. Here are some of the endless numbers of activities that can stimulate your brain. The key ingredients are to be open to new experiences, and changes in previous ways of thinking about these experiences.
