Simple Ways to Get Smarter

I recently read that mental exercises can boost brain power by 40% in a week. Some of these (which looks pretty easy and doable) are :

• controlling the computer mouse with the wrong hand
• walking around at home blindfolded
• doing puzzles, memorizing lists
• brushing your teeth with the wrong hand
• playing games such as Scrabble & charades

I'm already used to controlling the computer mouse with the 'wrong' hand. For the past few days i've been trying to brush my teeth with the 'wrong' hand. That hasn't been easy and my teeth don't feel very clean!! I've needed to complete the brushing with the 'right' hand.

Let me know if you think i'm getting smarter!
