This is from my book, 101 Ways To Expand Your Mind. It’s a great little trick to kick-start your brain in under a minute.

Trip
The gears in your head are moving slowly. You’re tired but there is work to do. You can’t wake up.

Before you reach for some coffee or Red Bull, take a quick Number Amphetamine Dose to wake up your mind and feel refreshed in just under a minute.

High Tech
In your head think of a small two digit number. Now double it. Now double it again. And again. And again.

Do it as quick as you can. Don’t worry about accuracy.

Keep going until you’ve lost track of the sum.

2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096……

Once you’ve lost track start again with a different number.

Continue until you’re fully awake.

Glow
Sometimes all we need to wake-up is to engage our mind with a slightly challenging activity. It doesn’t matter if you get the sums right while you’re adding in your head cause that’s not the point.

It’s kind of like giving a dog a game to play that they won’t always win. The toy with the treat inside that they can’t completely get at. They can get a taste and so it keeps them interested and motivated to keep doing it.

By getting the first bunch of additions right your mind is waking up and feeling good about itself and lighting up. The fact that at some point your addition will fail keeps it interesting.

The faster you go the quicker you’ll wake up. The only problem might be moving on from this addictive activity and getting back to work.
