Chapter 3448 [3448] The first driving force
In order to study the secret of success, scientists intend to analyze the difference between the brains of successful people and the brains of ordinary people through various scientific inspection methods.
One of the most famous experimental methods is to use the fMRI examination we mentioned before to scan the brains of two types of groups and compare the functional activity of the two types of brains.
Soon the researchers concluded that the brains of successful people are very good at eliminating interference, which is the most important factor for their success.
For example, classmate Xie, her concentration is called a terrifying level by the boss teacher, which means that the teachers all know that her concentration is the secret of her success.
How is the level of human concentration related to the human brain?
The researchers conducted fMRI examination experiments to investigate again, and the results showed that the level of concentration may be related to one of the structures of the brain: called the reticular activation system.
The location of this structure in the brain extends from the upper end of the spinal cord to the diencephalon. Its internal structure is composed of mixed nerve cells and nerve fibers in the ventral central part of the brainstem.
Because it is shaped like a net, it is called a mesh system.
The reason why there is a specific word called activation is that when medical scientists first discovered it, they believed that its function was like a switch, controlling the opening and closing between sleep and wakefulness.
The research continues to deepen. The reticular activating system not only activates people to wake up from sleep, but also has a relationship with the regulation of people's emotions, memory, concentration, learning, etc.
In this regard, the reticular activation system can be imagined as a super regulator, which regulates the coordination of the functions of various parts of the brain.
Coordination is positively correlated with efficiency, so the reticular activating system can be said to be a major factor for the human brain to influence a person to become a top student or a scumbag.
What affects the level of human reticular activation system?
Researchers have studied and studied, and found that they have returned to the original point, which is what human beings have been most concerned about in the early days: interest.
The secret of interest and the brain is a re-discussed topic. Interest is only related to the reticular activation system of the brain. There are many connections between interest and various structures and functions of the brain. Too many research results can prove this point.
It’s just that I didn’t think about it without research. Interest is always the first driving force for people. This is something that has been said many times in education, and it is the same as whether it can be successful in work and life.
Speaking of this, some people may find it strange. I am obviously interested in this industry, but why I can't improve my concentration and improve the efficiency of my brain.
The interest understood by ordinary people is different from the interest obtained by experimenters through experiments.
Do you think you are interested, is your brain really interested in it? You said it doesn't count. It is all too common for the human body to deceive itself.
For example, you may have a fever until you feel dizzy and feel that you don’t have a serious fever. When you measure it, it will burst to 40 degrees, which will startle the doctor.
Clinical scientific research is based on quantitative indicators to make judgments, not based on your own feelings.
People wrote articles telling you that interest is the most important thing, but they didn't lie to you. To say that the biggest deception of these articles is to say that this article can't tell you how to judge your own interests at all.
Hearing this, you will understand that the biggest secret of successful people is actually knowing where their interests are, so they can keep their brains in contact with points of interest to improve brain efficiency.
