Mind Technology and the GRE Exam
October 1, 2007 by Ryan Merlin · Leave a Comment
As I setup to give myself every possible advantage in posting a high score on the GRE, I’m working on setting up some mental techniques using some of the best from Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Hypnosis, Sport Psychology, Physiology Training, etc.
Knowledge is an amazing process involving an incredible array of memory, associations, emotion, senses, deduction, and many more. And while it goes without saying that education is absolutely vital for success, progress, development, etc. Yet, unfortunately, I also believe that almost everyone starts and continues to learn about fixed things, people, concepts, etc.., And almost never really learns how to learn; The actual process itself of learning, development, intelligence, etc,.
Traditional learning and education usually include repetition and exposure, which isn’t good enough for me. Some people have photographic memories, some people are consistently creative, some can understand, integrate, and apply some of the most complex concepts. And the best part, is that we have the same mind-body/neurological system. Unfortunately, in order to excuse themselves from responsibility and owning this amazing potential that each of has, many people rely on the defense which puts it out reach “it’s genetic”, “they just better than me”, “I can’t do that because…”. I fully believe that we are not afraid of what we can’t do, but acuatually afraid of what we can do and daring to be great.
Enter tools from meditation, visulization, NLP, Hypnosis. They say that NLP is the art and science of human achievement and excellence and can create the ability to sharpen the amazing tools of the mind-body. How? More to come, soon…
