Expanding your mind takes conscious daily efforts. You don’t become smarter in a day, so if you want to enrich your life and gain more knowledge, it is the small actions taken everyday that add up in your life. Some of the habits that you can inculcate daily to make you smarter are:

1. Read at least a chapter in a book: You know that book that you’ve postponed reading on several occasions, yes… Pick it up today and read a chapter because it not only makes you smarter, it also cascades right into your vocabulary.

2. Keep a diary: A diary helps puts all your thoughts, goals and plan in sight. When you write them down, you see the bigger picture.

3. Come up with at least one idea everyday: Think about how to put an end to a problem you have, an idea for a book, refine your thoughts and keep your mind positively busy at all times.

4. Go on a run: When you daily go on a run, you simulate your brain and mentally keep you in shape. It is also a great way to think through difficult situations and process new information.

4. Read the news: Catch up on the latest happenings from around the world and in your industry. That way, you will have a lot of intelligent conversations to make when you’re with your friends and you also get to make intellectual friends in return.

5. Make a ‘to-do” and “I-did” list. A to-do list keeps track of the things that you need to achieve for the day and an “I did” list ensures that you have all your activities completed. An “I did” list will also make you feel better if you’re feeling discouraged.

6.Take online courses: A vast number of free courses abound on the Internet; just make sure you don’t overload yourself. Commit to one and truly focus on it.

7. Hangout with people smart and interesting: As much as you can, spend time with people who are smarter and brighter than you. Always be humble and willing to learn and in no time you will have their knowledge rub off on you.

9./Play smart games: instead of trying to beat the highest score on candy crush, play games like chess, Sudoku and scrabble that expand your mind.

10. Apply all that you learn: if you recently learnt how to code, play a musical instrument or bake, spend your time practising the skill. Research shows that if you spend 10,000 hours practising a skill, you become great at it!
