This seems like a good place to post this book. It is about training and disciplining the mind. The book is by OReilly and it is called Mind Performance Hacks. It is a very good book.

A warrior is tuned to survive, and he survives in the best of all possible fashions." ― Carlos Castaneda

What kind of stuff can it teach you to do? Is it long lasting?

Cuz I read a book about becoming a mental math wizard a few years back. And for a while I was pretty good at it. But about a month after reading it I fell back to my regular patterns so I wasn't any better off.

Just look at it...it is pretty extensive and covers too much to write here.

Relating to you comment that I made an inconsequential input my arguments are pretty clear. You need to find your way to remember stuff and improve your brain activity. Even if it's hard for you to believe, I think that we're more then computers and reading a book on how to use your own brain sounds more like and user's guide to brain.
I didn't say you can't use it or whoever want, I just said what I think about it. Sorry you have issues and feel insulted. lol

And what exactly is so wrong with that? I would chance to think that just about every person on this planet really need a proper user's manual, because they, quite simply, do not know how to use it.

I agree with you, they need to learn how to use their brains, but they need to learn in on their own cause otherwise it will not imply and IQ raise, only a reflex. They need to think lol in how they need to improve their brain, that's at least that people can do.
This thing is just like those books that teched people how to have sex , lol which that too they need to figure out in their own.

Not sure what you are trying to express here; however, I do not understand how a human being "learns on their own" without information, correct? Obviously, all learning is done "on one's own", and I do not understand what preparing information for others to consider is negative and not to be preferred.

Perhaps if an individual automatically assumed everything presented to him was true, then there wouldn't be any actual "learning", but that is the choice of the individual, and has nothing to do with the source of information. The last that I was aware, we are able to take data from our environment, to consider it and interpret and analyze it, to determine its value and its worth and meaning, and to make decisions concerning how one is going to "place" the information in one's perspective.

Now, how does this book deny that, interfere with that? I browsed some of it, and the topics seemed interesting, and the manner of presentation was refreshing. As far as the content itself, I haven't really checked it out, but when I do, you can rest assured that myself, and others here, will interpret it for what it is and make their own decisions on what they will do with that information.

That's at least that people can do? Do you mean to state that is the least that people can do? Its hard to understand what you are saying when you are confusing your expressions in such a manner. :confused:

Quote:

So books or courses that would teach someone how to dance deny the fact that people should just "figure it out on their own". Perhaps we should not have swimming classes for young children, and should instead walk up the ladder and heave them straight into the 10' deep pool, and let them figure it out for themselves?

Apparently reading information materials prevents someone from learning? :wtf: Let's come back down to Earth and really think about this one for a second. :wink:

Ut's the commons sense of making youreslf able to know yourself and your mind as well as your brain abilityes and then come to the best conclusions for you on how to inproove your memory, how to take the best decisions and other stuff that book has. Tha's what I was trying to say. And if you say that we're not being able to do that it's your onw oppinion but I know we can without having to read it from somewhere.
Also you giving the exaple with not teaching how to swim and just let them figure it out has nothing to do with the subject, but if you really want to know there and women who give birth in water and those kids have the instinct to swim perfectly.
We are being able to do many things that we're not aware of them still and THAT lol figuring out how your brain responds best is one of them.

I fail to see your point? People learn and grow and develop themselves, and information that is provided to us assists with that. For example, you would not be capable of expressing yourself to others through this medium if you had not learned how to use written language.

I do not understand how people can be expected to learn to effectively utilize the mind entirely on their own - obviously, if it was an easy thing to do, more people throughout history would have not existed in suffering. Information is not harmful to one's ability to develop and evolve, and I am surprised that you would propose that it is. In order to develop oneself, one has to know how to, and it isn't as though that awareness of how to do so in an effective, conscious manner is self-evident, simply because one has a brain. If it was, we'd all naturally exist in a higher state. It requires discipline and awareness, theory and application, a source of knowledge. Observations of others and thoughts and ideas that are exchanged are a blessing in one's path of growth and evolution that are to be treasured.

I don't see a post in which Huehuecoyotl addressed you.  To what comment of his were you responding?  :confused:

I agree with FWG, it is difficult to understand your objections.  Are you saying that it is unnatural or non-preferable to learn about our brains from a book, rather than through trial and error?

I'm not saying that books are learning from others is wrong, I'm saying that this type of book I find worthless by it's way of giving examples and notions, I personally don't care for that type of books. It's not something generalized, it's just THIS kind of books.
So just to make this clear I have nothing against learning from wherever possible, that includes books too but I am pretty sure we can also exercise into knowing ourselves better by our own mens ans think that these kind of books stop us from achieving that on a higher level.

His comment was given in a rating and I responded him in the thread cause the subject was that.

Well, one shouldn't really respond to that kind of matter in a thread. Check the forum rules... doing so almost always results in an ugly situation. Keep focused on discussing the ideas, please. Leave the personal matters to private messages or elsewhere. :wink:

In any case, I didn't post this book with the idea that anyone would have some life changing epiphany. I just thought it was the quirky type of shit that many people on this forum (including me) might find amusing to pass a few hours.
