		<description><![CDATA[<p>I want to wish all of you the most Joyous Holiday Season Possible! You have nowhere to go but up!<br />
Here is a gift that can keep on giving if you apply its brain science secret as a habit. I call it “Trigger a Thunderstorm”<br />
If you study our books, CDs and other Brain Science researched based information and techniques, you know that you can increase your brain’s capacity for achievement by stimulating your brain to create new connections due to the discovery of the process know as neurogenesis (brain plasticity).<br />
But what the scientists also discovered was that as these new connections are being created in your brain, if you are in a highly charged emotional state, the brain will release proteins. It is a little known fact (Don’t you dare share this secret with your competition.) that when you are highly emotionallly charged, the new connections, created in the presence of these proteins, the connections will be stronger, there are more of them, and their firing threshold is lowered.<br />
To you and I this means that anything we learn while in this emotional state, will be stronger and longer lasting and we will be able to recall (remember and re-fire) these connections (actions) much more easily (thereby overcoming procrastination!). AND all of this will occur AUTOMATICALLY!<br />
Therefore, when you set out to learn a new task, skill, or knowledge-base, FIRST, trigger a thunderstorm of emotion and your skills will be much greater! This thunderstorm of emotion doesn’t even have to be real. You can generate it artificially by concentrating on very emotional memories. But you must be very careful NOT to cross over into the red-zone on this emotion as too much can in fact stop the formation of new connections.<br />
You can learn much more of course by sending your mind to Brain School and learning ALL the details of this and all our brain research based advanced achievement systems.<br />
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us here at the Brain Training Academy, home of the Brain School!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>There&#8217;s a universe inside your head-over 100 billion brain cells and 40,000 times that many connections. It&#8217;s a place of pictures and passions; of songs and sorrows.  It&#8217;s everything you are based on everything you&#8217;ve ever thought and it&#8217;s an utterly amazing mystery! Scientists have learned more about the human brain in the last 10 years than in all of time before that. Yet we still know more about the surface of Mars than our own brain. But if you learn HOW your brain works, you will have hold of a future filled with a lifetime of advanced achievements! You were born with a brain that pulses with unlimited potential. It begins to learn even before your first breath and doesn&#8217;t stop until after your last. But no machine as complex as the human brain can operate without malfunction. You must learn, fail, un-learn, and re-learn. Your brain is brimming over with fantastic original ideas, but most of us are starving to death&#8230;.Send your mind to Brain School and get an Advanced Degree in Higher Achievements!
