Mental Monday

Mondays are all about expanding our minds and keeping them healthy. One of the best ways to do this is to learn new things. For me, I have put my speed reading and language learning on hold so I can fix my template. This is definitely new territory for me. Here is to healthier brains. Hopefully, I can get more in depth in my posting again once I fix this.

Mental Monday

To that end, I have begun to learn Italian using the Rosetta Stone. So far I am very impressed with their system and how quickly I seem to be picking it up. This serves a dual purpose for me. Not only will it expand my brain, but it will also move me closer to my goal of someday relocation to Italy.

My other chief venture in mental expansion is speedreading. For this venture I chose to use EYEQ. Through three sessions I have increased my speed by 20% to almost 500 words per minute. Once I have this mastered I will move on to photoreading.
