1.Don't Talk Just Listen 

Enhance your listening skills by not talking when someone is speaking to you. Resist the urge to speak your views when someone is talking to you, just listen to them and ask them more open ended questions at the appropriate times. This has two benefits: a) You can really listen if you are not formulating the stories in your own head when someone is talking b) you will make the other person feel great as you are actively listening to them.

22.Drink Coffee And Tea 

Despite evidence to the contrary coffee and tea have been shown to help the brain. Antioxidants and/or caffeine may help fight the onset of Alzheimer's by 30-60% drinking 30 cups a day is obviously not good but 3-5 cups per day is okay.

23.Eat Plenty Of Fish 

There is an abundance on new evidence that eating fish is great for our brains and keeping them healthy.

24.Exercise Your Mind Not Just Your Body 

We all know the benefits of exercising the body but exercising the mind by doing crosswords, maths puzzles, playing chess, reading, anagrams, sudoku etc, all help to increase the minds capacity for learning.

25.Follow your instincts 

We don't trust ourselves nearly enough as we should. Follow your instincts more and pay attention to the signals your body is picking up and see where it takes you. You might find that your conscious brain gets in the way of your body signals a lot of the time. 

26.The way we behave doesn't necessarily reflect our true thoughts. Remember this when someone acts out of character and behaves in a way you don't approve of.

27.Get A Dog/Cat 

If you live alone why not go to one of the pet rescue centres and get a dog or a cat. People who have pets are shown to be less lonely, more active, and show fewer signs of stress. 

28.

Give Money to Someone Unexpectedly 

Whether it be on the internet, or in the street, just give a larger than normal donation to someone. This again is liberating and your thoughts about money will change for a few moments (that's all it takes to start the process of changing your life.)

29.

Give Someone A Gift For No Reason 

We always assume someone buys us a gift for a reason whether it be a birthday, christmas or special occasion. Buy someone a gift just because you know they would like it.

30.

Have A News Break 

What would happen if you never read a newspaper for a week? nothing at all, your life wouldn't change, you wouldn't run out of things to talk about, you would still be as up on the world as everyone else. Newspapers sell because of their doom and gloom, read it and you are buying into it.
