give your left brain some exercise as
well. To do so, encourage yourself to
work alone whenever possible. While

opportunities, it’s also important to learn
how to be able to tap into your left-
brain by giving yourself some quiet
space to focus on the task at hand.

under pressure. Give yourself as much
time as possible to finish a project, and
avoid procrastination by scheduling this
time and ensuring ample opportunity to
get things done without time pressure
setting in.

and other visual aids to help them
commit information you need to know
by memory.
