I was wondering if an average person, better yet, can a mentally challenged person,if he/she is truly determined to and actually dedicates him/herself to develop his/her mind to the fullest? I mean, I know about the flowers for Algernon story, wouldn't it be great if each of us can tap into the other 90% of our brain power like Einstein did? I also know it's up to the individual person's wishes, attitudes, , habits, outlook, desires, ambitions, how a person deals with his/her past failures and successes, etc., steadfast, unwavering dermination to succeed and do whatever it takes to improve him/herself, but this is this lofty and noble goal really realistic today with all its distractions and responsibilities? But, really, who has the time and how much energy would a person need to have in order to reach or uplift his mental capacities? Or does that depends on which level of mental capacities that a person is at now. Or does it depend on having a really good teacher, mentor, etc? Obviously, money and the environment plays a big part, but if a person does not have either, how is a person supposed to go about it, if that is what a person does, indeed, eally would like to achieve such as reading doing some of the things and exercises in
Thought-Force in Business and Everyday Life by William, Walker Atkinson, Think and Grow Rich, may be some melvin Powers Clasic books, NLP books, etc,. And lastly, if a person wans;t really born with a great mind, does a person have to continuously practice to develop his/her mind? Thank you |
