 Number 21 the SNESN-Smith influence tendency now in this short cognitive tendency Charlie is basically Aligned the cognitive decay process that happens to all humans with age As you get older, it is no secret that your thinking or your cognitive processes Become less fluid. They become less rigid. Perhaps you won't be able to recall certain Things that happened in the past or you won't be able to calculate things that you were able to calculate With the same precision as when you were a young man or a young woman Of course, this is natural. This is a natural part of the human condition of the heat of being a human being much like how Your body starts to decay as you get older if you were fit at age 20 You can still maintain a good athletic body all the way up to 80 But by no means will you be as fit as you were when you were younger? This is accepted the same thing happens with aging and your mental capacity Of course, there are some old people that are still very sharp I still have very sharp minds and the reason this is so is because these people have been able to maintain the Cognitive processes through practice if you practice if you Exercise your mind you can still maintain a large amount of your function as you get older You can still be very sharp indeed. However, most people don't Put any measures to maintain these cognitive Processes so they are unable to keep their minds faculties. So this is why old people Sometimes it's hard for them to learn new skills Because the brains already started decaying and of course some people will argue that there are people that were able to develop sharper minds and fitter bodies in their older years, but Those people are the exception and not the rule that the outliers whenever you're studying a case You never look at the outliers. That's basic statistics You look at the average case the the middle range and that's what we're talking about in this video So yeah, just take with a grain of salt and this is not an offensive video by all means It's just something that happens as part of nature it's it's better to be able to identify with it as you age so that you can age gracefully with no ego and Also, if you wish to put some pre Preventive measures in place so that you can keep your mind sharp The same way that you'll keep your body sharp through regular exercise Anyway, that's the video guys. Hope you enjoyed that
