What kind of person is a smart person?

Humans have developed this much civilization, although they have a variety of inferiors than other animals.If you look at this fact, you may want to think a little "smart".What is the "smartness" of humans derived from?

In modern brain science, I think that the smartness is good with others.It is the essence of human head to create society by communicating with others and working together.The smartness is deeply involved in sociality.

The ability to read others' hearts is called "theory of heart" in technical terms.No matter how fast the computer can be calculated, it does not have a mental theory.Humans are much better than computers in the ability to read the hearts of others and communicate well with those who meet for the first time.

There is no doubt that human social intelligence is excellent compared to animals that create a herd such as monkeys.In terms of knowledge up to now, it is said that only humans can read others in a strict sense of all animals.

Even if the other person's thoughts cannot be easily judged, only humans can feel the invisible opponent's heart.It can be said that words such as "Aun's breathing" describe such a delicate relationship.

Acceptance and coexistence of others will lead to "smartness".In other words, being able to get along well together makes you smarter.

Is there a way to improve the so -called "ground"?

A psychologist, Charles Spiamant in the UK (1863-1945), has a G factor that is common to many human abilities, and that people with high G factors have high academic ability in various fields.It was shown by the method.In other words, it can be said that the G factor is high = the ground is good.

Subsequent research on brain science revealed that people with high G factors work well in the concentration of frontal lobe.

So how do you train your concentration?I tell the children, "When you study, you can do it at the top speed."It may be painful before you get used to it, but as you continue, you will suddenly be able to study at top speed.By doing so, the concentration of the frontal lobe is trained.

In addition, it is also recommended to study (work) where there is noise.Osamu Hayashi is "When will you do it now?", But in my case, "Where do you do it? The living room!"

By concentrating and doing something in a place with a lot of noise, the living room, the function of the frontal lobe memory is enhanced.In fact, many people have heard that "many people who passed the University of Tokyo studied in the living room".

In brain science, the human frontal lobe is designed so that it can be concentrated in any place, so if you need to concentrate on it, you will be addicted to your brain at any time.By continuing such training, the ground may grow.
