That is the question many people argue about. This time we are highlighting the determinants of smartness on the bases of PRWeb, according to that D Brooklyn presents notes two shocking facts: (1) we grow 200 billion brain cells at a fast clip of 75,000 brain cells a second, and (2) we grow 1,000 trillion brain-cell connections at speeds exceeding 250,000 brain-cell connections a second--that's over 15 million brain-cell connections a minute! But the most astonishing is that this is the most brain cells we will ever have--and we're not even born into the world yet.
D Brooklyn promises that new book opens a door that could not only change the way the country looks on the black male, but also on how the country educates and protects its kids.
As noted at PRWeb, the battle should be fought on two battlefronts: (1) where the black son is already born and living in a world where competition is everything, and (2) where the unborn black son is now just a twinkle in his mother's eye.
So what is the process like? During the Great Brain-Cell War, 100 billion of these 200 billion brain cells (one-half) shrivel and die away before we are born. And during the three "tender years (0-3)" after we're born, we continue connecting our 100 billion brain cells until they are 1,000 trillion connections strong. Then we spend the next ten years (3-12) fighting the Great Brain-Cell Connection War. With this war raging like crazy inside our heads (society shaping us into who we are) 500 trillion brain-cell connections (one-half) unravel, shrivel and die away--even more dying when we are not learning enough new and interesting things to give them all brain jobs to do, so they can live.
Cell connections are built upon learning new and interesting things, and when this process is stopped brain cells are unraveling, shriveling, and dying away--and dead brain cells are forever dead.
"When it comes to how smart you are," the author adds almost wistfully, "self-help is not a choice for you to make. You don't help yourself become smart because you can't help yourself become smart. This is especially during the first dozen years of your life."
The engine driving our brainpower depends on the mother and the other people. The author admits that "when someone praises us for that smart brain glowing between our ears, we should thank the mother and the other people who raise us."
What to do in order to grow smarter? That’s easy as one way to grow smarter is to check out books from the library and read them, and buy books.
