Classical brain myths

My brain functions just well!     

Personally I don't understand a statement like this at all.
Everybody's brain can perform better. 

People who make a comment like this I usually don't see as bright people. They basically always underperform and cocooned in their comfort zone. "This is how their life is and always be; and they tend to concentrate on blaming others and the circumstances.” 

But I don't believe you are one of these persons, otherwise you wouldn't read this. 

Take a look at the following questions. If only one applies to you, you have a motive to start training your brain in order to achieve more. 

Is this you?       

• When I was younger I had a better brain  
• Learning was a lot easier when I was young  
• Very often I don't recall the names and/or faces of persons anymore  
• I need a notebook in order to remember phone numbers, birthdays, dates and addresses.  
• I don't like to take an exam  
• I don't like to learn  
• Sometimes my brain will not function right  
• Why should I improve my brain capacity?  

You and I realize that all these comments are basically excuses and really could become something like:   

• I am looking forward to meet new people as I remember every detail effortlessly  
• Phone numbers, birthdays, shopping lists and addresses simply stick inside my head  
• I don't mind to speak publically; I don't need notes, as my speech is fluently expressed, people like to listen to my story and I am not afraid to get on stage and I know I will not forget what I want to say.  
• I work more efficient.  
• I like to learn new things  
• My creativity, fantasy and my adventurous side have increased  
• I trust my memory gets better every day
