Human Psychology is a very interesting and very useful subject.
While learning on one’s own is important, it would be better if someone else motivates you to get interested so that you take further initiative to read a little more, to observe little more carefully and become better in your ability to understand yourself better, and understand the people and the world around. Though I am not an expert in this area, my keen interest and the advantage of having moved with the students and youth for such a long time, I took the initiative to talk about this topic. The main objective is to motivate the people to get interested, in knowing why people behave the way do, how to understand oneself better, and how to attempt to understand others. As a part of the One week programme, on Mind Management Techniques, one hour presentations, in English and Telugu, sometimes simultaneously using both languages have been made to the participants at Vivekananda Institute of Human Excellence, Ramakrishna Math, Hyderabad, India. You would enjoy better if you can simultaneously view the power point presentation available at www.scribd.com [please search for Viswam.vangapally4581].
In case you are viewing the power point presentation, the live recording of the speech, mainly in English, can be listened to, by visiting www.archive.org [please search for Prof. V. Viswanadham].
60. "Every man can,
if he so desires,
become
the sculptor of
his own brain"

61. A big component
of our lifelong
brain health and development
depends on what we do
with our brains.
Our own actions,
not only our genes,
influence our lives
to a large extent.
Genes predispose us,
not determine our fates.

62. Exercising
our brains
systematically
is as important as
exercising our bodies

63. Learning is critical at all ages,
not only in the school environment.
We have brains
precisely in order to be able to learn,
to adapt to new environments.
This is essential throughout life,
not just in school.
We now know that every brain
can change, at any age.
There is really no upper limit
on learning
since the brain neurons
seem to be capable of growing
new connections
whenever they are used
repeatedly.

64. I think all of us
need to develop
the capacity to self-motivate ourselves.
One way to do that is to
search for those meaningful
contact points and bridges,
between what we want to learn
and what we already know.
When we do so,
we are cultivating
our own neuronal networks.
We become our own gardeners.
