Lately I’ve been feeding my kids a lot of fish because of the omega-fats that are said to be a super-food for your brain. I started thinking, I’m so focused on their brain function – but what about my own? As an adult our brain tends to do more slowing down than it does speeding up. I read some interesting studies on how to keep your brain sharp! Some suggested writing a sentence in cursive every morning, other suggested doing a cross-word or Sudoku with your morning coffee. While I do enjoy Sudoku, a friend of mine showed me this website – and then I found some others on my own – that really put my brain to the test, pushing it to “wake up” more.
This particular brain test is about multi-tasking. You can find it @ http://open-site.org/blog/the-multitask-test/. It allows you to see how well your brain multi-tasks on a basic level, and then compare your score to gender averages as well as where your average age score lies.
Some other interesting ones are:
- This one is recommended by Forbes – and after completing a quick goal orientation and profile you can begin “training your brain”.
