Sign up to Lumosity or ABChas a neuron disease research website where you can sign for a 12 month program. Useful in my opinion, there are exercises you would not normally come across, and they exercise differnet parts of your brains, so you get to keep scores on memory, flexibility, problem solving,reaction speed, attention, etc Puzzles are just one part of what you can do. Funnily enough today I went for a walk to markets with my daughter and we bought a 1000 piece puzzle. Now we need to set it up somewhere and start chipping away at putting it all together :-)

The vast variety of work tasks and the interacting with a diverse range of people in differing situations keeps my mind active.

in an investigative capacity. In my role you must have an eye for detail. Not into crosswords or jigsaws so much but I enjoy Lumosity and those "find a word" puzzles. If I have spare time I look for free puzzles and games online and enjoy some of the numbers ones but usually go for the word ones. I have always enjoyed reading but usually don't read novels or magazines these days, prefer non fiction and biographies.

I gather you've passed years nine, ten and eleven several times :).... That's a wonderful thing your doing and I'm sure extremely rewarding...... I was doing something similar, mine was more one on one with the kids that had trouble learning, or the ones that had personal problems.... I don't think I've ever walked with my head held so high than when I was helping those kids...

I do like to talk to people and see what makes them tick, I love to pull things apart and put them back together, I enjoy googling to find out how to fix or do things. I am a curious being, I love to read stupid things like packaging, the insert leaflets or instruction manuals that come with things. I can't say that I have a favourite thing to do, but something will just take my fancy then I am all over it, then I will move on when I lose interest, and there are things that hold very little interest to me.

New people. Everyone is unique.I especially love knowing how people have developed a taste for a certain kink or fetish.

Are you a Sagittarius by any chance? Your words are exactly what I do too. I can't help but pull things apart and put back together to figure our how people and things work. But I dislike it when there's screws left over...Bloody Ikea sucks sometimes!! LOL I'm not sure if it's a curse or a blessing some days. Foxy

Freya - I admire you wholeheartedly. It takes a strong & patient person to work with high school students who have a disability! How you are helping these kids is life changing for all involved!! I learn choreography when I instruct Les Mills programs at the gym! The medical side of me loves learning how the human brain works and what medications do for medical conditions! I love talking to the elderly and listening to their life stories - it's very educational. I write to ppl across the globe and I love learning about different cultures and the food they eat. That's how I exercise my mind x - Posted from rhpmobile

5 to 6 books at a time.. ALL of the time.. and they are mostly all of entirely different subjects..I "Stalk" people who have a "soapbox" topic.. try to listen to their person understanding of that subject... learn as much as I can in as short a time as possible and argue the topic.. I virtually NEVER state "I Believe..." I do love to listen to people being PASSIONATE about what THEY believe in... and then TRYING to caste doubt into their own minds on their own personal beliefs.. puzzles.. mensa type stuff.. (not that I am ANYWHERE near mensa) problem solving.. alternative thought patterns..people studying... and anything else I find interesting.. "At the time"

I'm Simon and I'm a learnaholic. I just can't help it, everywhere I go I'm trying to find something new. When I bought my first motorbike at 16 I pulled it apart completely then put it all back together again, because I wanted to know how it worked and Dad would never let me do it to the car. (I did end up with a few pieces left over, but they were clearly just excess weight - it worked perfectly for a few years afterwards). At uni I used to attend lectures for interesting subjects I wasn't enrolled in. Eventually I worked out that I could learn a lot more if I just did that rather than wasting time writing assignments, so I dropped out of my course, and just kept going to interesting lectures for a few years. I've kept it up ever since in an informal way. I'll get interested in a topic, spend a few months learning everything I can, then move on to the next one. I read books, enroll in online courses, and have even gone back to uni as a distance ed student a couple of times - just to learn a few subjects that were important to me at the time. I've created a job for myself that challenges me to learn new businesses and technologies and apply them in a new environment. My specialty is creating something new, then handing it over to a team to manage so I can move on to the next thing. I ignore all the mainstream news, it's just pointless drivel, but I read as much of the in depth analysis of political and economic issues that I can find time for. I have no idea what reality TV show is hot right now, but I can talk about how foreign aid props up a dictator in Cambodia, and how that relates to the latest refugee deal. I travel constantly, mostly on my own, and love nothing more than getting to a new city in a new country and working out how to make my way. I take public transport wherever possible because it's much more of a challenge and there are so many more interesting interactions. When I do travel with colleagues it confounds them that I will make them take two trains and a walk in the heat over a flash hire car every time. I'm here because I find the various kinks and sub-cultures interesting and knew little about it when I started. It does create some issues, and I have an unconventional family life as a result, but I'm not ready to stop. Thanks for listening.

Reading, I love it, my room is like a library, with lots of different books on offer.... Math and science, my 2 favorite subjects at school, still love them, as do my children..... Sudoku, the harder the better..... Studying people, I can honestly spend hours watching people, analysing their faces, their body language and interactions with their partners, their lovers, their playmates, their children, their co workers, strangers and themselves, this simulates my mind no end..... Listening and asking lots of questions......💋

Well Study is one part but that is not that taxing. Anything below a HD (High distinction) is a fail in my book so I do pull a little effort in.Learning the guitar, but I slack off at times but is good for fine motor control, audio and spacial memory.Go out meet, befriend, and seduce people. Keeps the social skills in good form.Drawing keeps the visual system in tune, If i am staring it could be because I am memorizing your shape, drawing you in my mind.Write games, I create about one complete game every year on average and combines all the disciplines, art, music, logic. Keeps the inner child alive and cultivates creative thought.Modify web sites to suit my needs. Keeps me in tune with what the industry is up to and makes life so much easier.Major work, a work in progress now for 2 years and approaching 200 thousand lines of code. A level of complexity way beyond anything I have created before. Keeps my organisational, memory, logic, math, and more skills healthy.Design and create robots. Purely as toys and for fun.I talk, and talk and talk. Keeps my mouth from seizing up.

Thanks everyone. . You have all inspired many thoughts for me. Surprise, surprise. But I don't really want to write a long drawn out post in reply, so as usual I'm torn about how much to say. I love all the bits I've learned about you all and you've reminded me how much in common I have with you all, and with each other, I think at least. . I do like how so many get so much satisfaction out of work. And learning for the sake of it. I can see it not just benefitting you but the people around you. xxx . I've just started a mindfulness course that was the final push to start this thread, it fits in well with so much of what I have learned from other courses over time. I've also been doing a drumming course which is based on communication for several weeks now. Fascinating stuff. Thanks for listening. Peachy :-)
