But trust me, you can breakthrough your emotional disabilities by following some intellectual activities. All you need is a hunger to learn and adapt to new learnings.

• Be a bibliophile:  There is a saying that “He who can read and write has four eyes”. You have to keep studying with a hunger to learn about history, arts, science, and learn the mechanism of the world. You have to make reading books a habit. Do a little research and try to find interesting books which will make you fall in a love with reading. Once you start reading about things, you’ll feel the hunger to know more about the world.

It leads to boosting and improving your memory. It may sound like an ordinary thing. But you will feel its benefits once you start doing it.

• Test yourself: You can’t be optimistic until you get out of your comfort zone. Get yourself into different situations and try to overcome them by yourself. This type of situation stimulates you to go through different mental activities and come up with conceptual solutions. Try to be active mentally and engage in new things. Discomfort will make you learn and adapt to changes and increase your IQ at the same time.

• Think differently: You can do some group projects. Each of your teammates will come up with ideas. This pushes you to think out of the box and think creatively. You have to get out of the traditional way of thinking and adopt a different way of thinking.
