PERSONAL PLAN TO ENHANCE BRAIN FUNCTION
Improving your brain through constant practice and
checking your health it is crucial especially the different
adjustments and coping abilities. The brain continues working
even when you are at asleep. The brain works in a slower
pace and if the brain stops life cease to exist. To comprehend
situational problems and to train one's brain to handle these
challenges, will give an assurance of making right and
logical decisions. True enough, if you are consistent in being
stagnant and refuse to learn new things, you are the risk of
eliciting your capacity to improve. (In Praise of the Idle Mind;
Davis, 2019)
What is Thinking ?
Thinking – it involves manipulating mental representation and prevents us
from making a mistake ( Robertson, 1999 ).
A . CRITICAL THINKING - requires logic and coherence as we try to analyze,
synthesize, evaluate, and interpret information rather than simply apply technical
abilities. ( Andolina, 2001).
- we try to evaluate , formulate good arguments, we arrange information in a
coherent way by making connection to other ideas, considering alternative
sources and assessing their implications, looking for cause and effect and
making generalizations.
Metacognition - it refers to the awareness and knowledge about one’s own
thought process and the ability to use the knowledge in managing one’s own
thinking processes, such as problem solving and comprehension ( Bruning,
Schraw, Norby, & Ronning, 2004 )
B. CREATIVE THINKING – the production of effective novelty through the operation
of our mental processes. (Halford, 2004 ). Creativity depends not only our ability to do things but
to represent what has been done. Creative thinking must be able to represent relations. A
creative person can see relationship of things around through art, music, dance and movement,
and other forms of creative activity.
ENHANCING CREATIVITY THROUGH MIND MAPPING
Mind map - is a graphic technique which provides a universal key to unlock
the potentials of the brain. ( Tony Buzan, father of Mind Mapping ) This one technique he
designed and endorses because it fosters whole-brain development.
In a mind map, one concept, idea or topic is represented using an image. Key words are then
associated with it and are placed in major branches that are color coded. These branches spread
out into twigs containing key words. Each branch and twig contain only one keyword.
Mind mapping does not only
create and structure ideas but
also it helps store new
information and test them.
UNDERSTANDING THE INTESITY AND DIFFERENTIATION
OF EMOTIONS
Emotion - is your reaction to any stimulus and comes from your limbic
system. It a natural instinctive state of mind deriving from one’s
circumstances, mood or relationship with others. ( Oxford dictionary ).
Emotion finds a way in expression. By our facial expression, people
recognize what we feel. Facial expression communicates our emotions, it
can be misleading, exaggerated or minimized. Facial expression is
universal, can be seen in human as well as in animals. We learn facial
expression that is one recognized or approved by one’s culture. According
to Paul Ekman and Carrol Izard there are 7 emotions that have universal
facial expressions - anger, contempt, disgust, fear, joy, sadness and
surprise.

Emotions are measured through self-report instruments or psychological tests. They
can be measured through physiological ways such as monitoring the heartbeat, blood
pressure, sweating of palms and even through blood chemistry and brain activities. It
can be measured through behavioral manifestation such as facial expressions and tone
of the voice.
Emotions tell you something is wrong – when you fell that something is not right,
listen to your body. Your intuition may be guiding you on what to do. Your feelings
of unease or discomfort can alert you on a potential danger of misfortune these
feelings are prompting you to respond and guide you not to make hasty decisions.
Emotions allow you to maintain and develop your relationships into meaningful
ones. Shame, guilt, and pride are negative ones. Emotions allow us to realize that
we have done wrong to our family, friends, neighbors and thus we make an apology
for such actions. Positive emotions such as being loved, feeling accepted or
understood warms the heart and makes relationship valuable.
Emotions create opportunities to see things meaningfully. We see the purpose of
our lives and we become more capable of making and doing our choices.
Emotions bring out feelings of self-respect and self-worth. The more that you
feel good about yourself, the more open you are for the many opportunities and
challenges in life. Live your life to the fullest and celebrate your emotions.
