Factors that affect our growth.

a- The environment we choose This is the classic Nature vs Nurture debate. Nature: our genetic makeup. Nurture: the environmental factors which influence our development. Turns out it is not so much Nature vs. Nurture as it is Nature and Nurture

b- The mindset we choose What about when things do happen in our environment, which we have no control over? It comes down to our mindset. Embracing challenges Persisting in the face of setbacks Viewing effort as the path to mastery Learning from criticism Finding lessons and inspiration in the success of others

so… 4 Simple Ways To Get Smarter:

Well, it just so happens that there is a theory that gives a kind of raison d’etre to our universe and all the objects flying through it. If true, it would mean that our universe is nothing more than a black hole generator, or a means to produce as many baby universes as possible. To learn more, we spoke to the man who came up with the idea.

It’s called the theory of Cosmological Natural Selection and it was conjured by Lee Smolin a researcher at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics and and an adjunct professor of physics at the University of Waterloo. Smolin proposed that Darwinian processes still apply at the extreme macro-scale and to non-biological entities. Because the universe is a potentially replicative unit, he suggests that it’s subject to selectional pressures. Consequently, nearly everything the universe does is geared toward replication.
