Most of us wouldn’t choose a job in a busy restaurant as a way to relax our brains, but it works for Sheldon. He has his “eureka moment” after dropping some dishes and noticing the pattern of the broken pieces on the floor. Our brains normally look for patterns to help make sense of the world. Play Music. Make lists.

The way it works is by strengthening the mental pattern of retained information in our brains. Sounds pretty simple right? Spaced repetition avoids cognitive overload, which results in fragmented and detached pieces of information, inhibiting information in long-term storage. Maximise learning improvement.

Your Brain Is Wired for Music. While Pythagoras didn’t have the benefit of today’s brain imaging technology, he just may have been right. Human brains interpret waves that fall between 20 to 20,000 Hz as sound. But music isn’t just a single sound; it’s a complex weaving of sounds, mixed with rhythm and sometimes language.

While he didn’t have the benefit of today’s brain imaging technology, he just may have been right. Human brains interpret waves that fall between 20 to 20,000 Hz as sound. The vibration, usually carried by the air, enters our ear, eventually stimulates the auditory nerve , which sends a signal to the brain.

It's about overcoming our cognitive limitations by putting information in the world. More importantly, it aligns with how our brains learn. At the neural level, what's happening is that you're reactivating patterns that represent the elements, and strengthening the links between the neurons that make the pattern.

When our brains are stressed out due to too many distractions, they’re reactive instead of receptive to learning, which shuts down the learning process altogether.

Originally documented in cognitive psychology, the scarcity effect is a well-known principle in economics and marketing, used to predict buyer behavior. Our brains can do funny things under stress, and the scarcity effect generates a highly stressful experience. That’s why you’ll see ads on late-night TV say things like “Order now!
