Here are a few valuable tips that you’ll be able stir to acquire a sharp thinking:

1. Standard of measurement your actions against the consequences.
We learn through with experiencing things. It is called applied learning. But our actions can either go into two ways; good outcome or bad outcome. What we should do is to be able to measure what actions we have to do against all the consequences whatever they may be, think before you act, as it were.

2. Daydreaming.
Daydream may make ameliorate and deep brainstorms about life and about things we seldom think about. There we experience what we want and define what will happen. It can also make our minds be more creative. They state dreaming is just a nuisance and a disturbance but actually when done appropriately will exceed that of the sharpest mind.

3. Answer challenging questions.
You have got to take exception the bound of your mind by stimulating how far your answers can go. How appropriate your answers are and how satisfying they can be to the question.

4. Find out to invent.
You’ve to discover how to do things your own way and invent it using different methods. In that way your mind will perceive all as different paths toward the same direction. This is a good way of saying that whatever path you choose, you’ll never get lost. Don’t rely on pre-defined ways because sticking with this and only this won’t get you anywhere should something come up.

5. Find different angles of the problem.
Whenever you’re represented with a problem it’s better that you learn how to look at it in a different angles so that you’ll be able to solve it also in different ways. Considering a problem in a specified way won’t bring as many solutions as there could be.

6. Comparison is better.
When given different situations compare them to each other. In the same manner when you’re only given one option, you’ve you make another one and compare the two. This way your mind will seek better if not best option among all.

7. Definition of terms.
You need to be able to define the terms you’ll use so for you to be clear on what you very mean. Occasionally words can be applied incorrectly that’s why confusion and misunderstanding come into play.

8. Have various opinions.
Whenever you’re facing a certain issue, you’ll need a different opinions viewing this to come up with your own way of handling the issue. Great minds are open to another mind-sets.

9. Be able to put yourself in someone else’s shoes.
Avid minds don’t think simply of themselves and what they do. They also think of how someone will react, feel and think of the tables are turned.

10. Write stuffs.
The power of pen on paper may be greater than any great mind. They can remember even the dimmest ideas while great minds may forget.

11. Think one step beforehand.

Faced with a tremendous diversity of choices in the governmental and private sectors, locating the closest school near their new homestead may not always be the best solution to the problem. There is an entire array of other issues parents should consider when it comes to their child’s education, other than the convenience of a nearby location.

First, parents should evaluate their child’s weaknesses, strengths, abilities and interests. For example, if the child is very active and loves sports, your primary school of choice should have an extensive sports program with the broadest possible range of sporting activities. Additionally, parents of young children usually know if their child enjoys the company of many classmates or prefers smaller group settings.

Second, find as much information as possible about potential surrounding school districts and the activities in those neighborhoods. If there is too much crime and violence reported, it may be best to pick a primary school in a different location, even if it means getting up fifteen minutes earlier because the commute takes longer.

Third, parents should find out as much as they can about the school’s reputation and academic ranking. Not every educational institute delivers what they preach and, on top of that, may represent values, cultural associations or religious beliefs some parents simply cannot accept. Equally important is the amount of discipline, as well as the security measures enforced for the child’s safety, when it is in the school’s care.

Fourth, those parents who want to be involved in the day-to-day activities of their child, who like to volunteer in the classroom or during fieldtrips, and prefer to be frequently informed about their youngster’s educational progress, should verify with potential schools if that possibility exists. Not all schools are open to parental involvement when classes are in session.

Fifth, how much will it cost to be enrolled in a specific primary school? Taking into account uniforms or other dress codes, extracurricular activities, transportation, school and art supplies, meals and drinks, and whatever else may be required throughout the entire school year may add up. Some primary schools will provide the goods for a fee, while others will ask the parents to buy the supplies themselves, giving them a chance to shop around for the best deals.

Sixth, most schools have a website, which parents should study in great detail. Take virtual tours, read about the teachers and how accredited they are. Is there a guidance counselor, is the school equipped for special-needs children and how diverse are the students? Visiting the school’s Open House Days, talking to neighbors and friends, and getting as many referrals as possible are all actions that can prevent a lot of heartache, because every child pulled out of a school in the middle of a year suffers a tremendous set-back adjusting to new classmates and a strange school environment.

The process of finding the perfect primary school for a beloved son or daughter can be exhausting, but definitely worth it in the end. Seeing a child flourishing and growing into a happy teenager is absolutely rewarding and will make both the child and the parents extremely proud.

“I just finished reading this book and I have decided that I am ADD.”

“I saw a TV show about ADHD. I have it and so does my son.”

“My daughter’s teacher says she asks too many questions. Do you think she’s hyperactive?”

Over the past ten years, we’ve all heard announcements like these from friends, family and even strangers.

As a spiritual coach and counselor, I deal with questions about ADD and ADHD every day. My insights may be helpful to you, too.

ADD AND ADHD IN ADULTS

Recently, a client started our counseling session by declaring that he’s ADD. His wife was quick to agree. That’s what brought them to my doorstep. They needed help with their marriage.

Often, the first step to repair a marriage begins with personal spiritual growth. Until the individual understands him- or herself, it’s difficult to build trust and understanding in any relationship.

In this case, I did an energetic scan of my client. Some medical intuitives, including me, use this process to identify areas that need work. We “see” physical, emotional and energetic distress.

Next, I described to my client what I saw in the scan. I explained it in the context of ADD. Like many people who are confused by ADD and ADHD, he was relieved to find someone who understood what was going on.

After that, I recommended that they read more about the subject. Between their studies and a few counseling session, the client and his wife were able to understand each other better. According to them, it began a renaissance within their marriage.

For many adults, that’s all it takes. With a little education and some counseling, they learn how to live with ADD and ADHD.

ADD AND ADHD IN CHILDREN

Most people are diagnosed with ADD or ADHD as children. Through them, we can more about the many faces of Attention Deficit Disorder, with or without obvious hyperactivity.

Years ago, one of my most important breakthroughs was with a 12-year-old client. His first statement to me was startling.

With a look of anguish, he blurted, “It hurts to be a human when I think of and see all that we have done to this planet. But, I know I am here to make it better.” Scanning his energy, I could sense the pain that he was in. To me, it was as if he had been born without skin. He could feel everything around him. He had no personal boundaries.

That session helped him, but it helped me even more. I learned, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that ADD and ADHD aren’t disabilities. They’re gifts. Those gifts need to be managed and nurtured, but they’re still gifts. They may even point the way that our species is evolving.

If we medicate those gifts to minimize them, we risk losing those gifts altogether.

ADD, ADHD, UNDERSTANDING AND “THE BOX”

During the following months, my practice attracted many clients with Attention Deficit Disorder and forms of hyperactivity. I was one of the few who understood them as gifts, not diseases.

My staff and I used to joke that I’d become an “ADD magnet.” But, those months were a tremendous educational experience. Some of my clients already knew about ADD and ADHD. They’d already been diagnosed. They knew the terminology and the popular medical solutions. Some even chose the ADD label because, finally, it defined who they were.

Those clients can be the most difficult to work with. The ADD “box” acts as a protection and a defense. To help them, we must convince them to step outside that box. For someone who has lived without boundaries, that’s a very scary step. The box is the safe place to be. Convincing them to step outside can be challenging.

HOW TO HELP

The following basics can help anyone who is dealing with ADD and ADHD in children and adults.

* ADD and ADHD are gifts.
* The ADD and ADHD labels are over-used. They may mask other conditions that need to be examined.
* In addition, ADD and ADHD can be masked by other, more obvious conditions. Medication can make it even more difficult to identify attention, activity and boundary issues.
* Attention Deficit Disorder, with or without hyperactivity, affect four levels: Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. Each level must be addressed separately.
* In most cases, ADD and ADHD need to be managed, not drugged.
* In almost all cases, these people also have heightened perceptions of — and sensitivities to — spirituality. That spirituality can provide a bridge to help them, as well as support during episodes of extreme activity and/or vulnerability.

Because these and other conditions can be “layered,” diagnosis and treatment can be difficult with some clients. However, this also makes the work constantly engaging, challenging and intriguing.

THE FIRST STEP

In most cases, the first major issue is the client’s feeling of isolation. To resolve that, clients may have developed inappropriate behaviors. For example, they may be accustomed to creating emergencies and drama to attract attention and support.

Until the sense of isolation is addressed, those behaviors can slow treatment. Once the client feels a stronger connection to those close to him or her, the process becomes much easier. In addition, a client’s lifestyle needs to be reviewed. This includes diet and attitudes. Protocols must be created and understood by everyone who is connected to the client.

ADD AND ADHD AREN’T DISABILITIES

Attention Deficit Disorder is not a disability, it is a “diffability.” The person’s abilities are not “less than” or impaired, just different.

Each person is brilliant in some way. Often, this brilliance simply needs to be discovered, acknowledged and unlocked. ADD and ADHD are gifts. They may represent an expansion of our awareness beyond the 10% that the brain traditionally utilizes. Let’s not try to medicate and subdue this exciting evolutionary step.

Recently, a client said to me, “I am not dumb you know, even if they all say I am.” That’s a common misunderstanding when dealing with people — especially children — who have the gift of ADD.

They’re not “dumb” or stupid. In fact, they’re so smart in such different ways, we don’t always realize that what they have is an asset.

THE FUTURE OF ADD AND ADHD

Working together, we can become smart enough to understand those with ADD and ADHD. For now, let’s help these gifted people deal with isolation, fear, anxiety, depression and more. We can help each other. In this process, we may find ways to utilize even more intelligence, to help the evolutionary process. Our world could benefit greatly.

You can help people who have ADD and ADHD. Start by letting them know that they’re not alone.
