 How do you get smarter in minutes? Well, you do it by walking and then thinking walking and thinking So studies have shown that exercise increases blood flow to the brain So what I'm doing here in the town of Abingdon in Oxfordshire in the UK is taking buster for a walk We walk for 10 minutes and then I sit down on a park bench and I think for 10 minutes Sometimes I'd write a little right in my notebook And what that does is that the walk here that we're doing right now. This is a lock here in Abingdon The walk is increasing blood flow to my brain. So then when I finally sit down For 10 minutes, I have more clarity. I have more focus 10 by 10 10 minute walk 10 minute thinking and Plotting and planning and writing Now you can experiment it doesn't have to be 10 minutes exactly You can be 7 minutes and sometimes the walk might be 5 minutes and then you sit for 10 or you might sit for 15, but either way Whatever variation you do is just showing you the sites here Even by going just for that little walk The blood flow in your brain is Circulating sufficiently enough to almost make you smarter Do you ever sit down and you're just like thinking thinking thinking and you're just in that chair in that seat not moving and then you Like your brain gets tired Your brain's like oh and you just can't seem to have that breakthrough that mental breakthrough Get up move around Jump up and down do some burpees do some push-ups go for a little walk change your environment And when you change that environment It makes the clarity and the focus start to come so we'll walk here for another minute Hopefully we'll find a little place where I can sit and even if I don't I'll just show you what I do I've got a little notepad in my back pocket as I'm recording this and we'll go over turn left over here head back towards the Abingdon Square So yeah, let me just I know actually there is a little park bench over here. I think we're a little bridge rather So, yeah, I've done this now Since I turn on the hit record here. I've been doing this for the past hour Which is walk for a little bit sit for a little bit walk for a little bit sit for a little bit and I've Already had some tremendous insight into my business My businesses I should say the 30 day no alcohol challenge in my Swanee's glasses the blue light blocking glasses There's been some ideas kind of stewing around on my brain But I haven't been able to get them out and put them on paper But just doing this walk think Work method has helped me do that. So let me just pull out the The the notepad here. Here it is I'll bring that with me now because I'm holding and holding the camera and Trying to do a few things at the same time. This might be a little bit awkward, but Here are some of the notes that I've taken today Just ideas that have just come to mind as I've been sitting down in my 10 minute Thinking session now I put on a little timer every I'm using an iPhone to record this And there is a timer on the there's a stopwatch or a timer or a countdown I should say So I just put it to 10 minutes and I hit go and then It counts out it counts down and then when it hits 10 minutes An alarm goes off a little radar sound that you can set in your phone And when the 10 minutes gets up I stop writing I get up I grab Buster who's over there off the leash. I better go over. Hello. How you doing? Thank you. That's the way Buster Buster come on. Let's go Buster come on Can't let you go roaming or you'll be there we go. There we go. Let's go And then I'll get up And I'll take Buster and we'll walk again And then we'll just rinse and repeat so give that a try See whether that makes you smarter makes you feel smarter Makes you finally dislodge all that kind of like mental not garbage, but like ideas and things that are Swirling around in your brain Sometimes just being able to sit down and just write it out gets it out of your brain You start to create an action plan And from there you move forward So I hope you enjoyed this Go ahead and subscribe to my channel down below Or like this leave a comment down below as well.
