mental retardation

  i feel that i am going through mental retardation.  i am intellectually NOT stimulated.  feel bored most of the time.  main reason is that the job i do is pretty brain-less,  functional and doesn't require thinking.  it is a poor job fit for me, but due to transition i am currently stuck with such brain-less and simple jobs.

  i enrolled in a course of study to provide some mental stimulation, but i find that course too simple and exams mostly based on memory and rote-learning.

  i used to be a brainy person, but these days the stuff that i do are too simple and not challenging at all.  i feel myself becoming stupid and dull gradually.

  any suggestion what i can do before i become senile and retarded prior to old age ?

  Get A MBA

  You should try to get a MBA or get a new job that's challenging or play strategic games (that should keep your mind working) if you think that your job is mindless.

  i was working on a MBA before quitting it due to some screw up.  so now i am stuck in the middle, neither up nor down.  the old jobs which i used to work at are lower-level and not challenging (that's why i took an MBA in the first place).  i can't access the higher-level jobs because i don't hv an MBA.  and i don't want to spend a bomb getting another shot at an MBA.  hence i am now in a fix. 

  god gave me a brain to use but it is rotting everyday.  might as well give me a gun to put a hole into it and blow it to pieces since it's not gonna be used any way.

  Sudoku. I have a job that pushes the limits when its lull and when its packed too. But I was reassured during the lull, when your brain relaxes and does absolutely nothing, its the time when it develops the most.

  Haha. I thought I was almost brain dead when I just came out to work, as I was going through a routine day in day out. Like no brain stimulation. Till I was so worried that I can't solve a simple P6 maths. So I decided to strike it out on my own, starting a business now. You can try setting up a business. I find that demanding and challenging. My cup of tea. =D

  Nowadays, there are music in the market that claimed to have simulated mental growth if you listen to it.In fact on Popular Book shop ,I think it is called BrainAmp from Acure Brain Lab. Offical Link : http://www.acurebrainlab.com/ and in Popular Book Store just key in iMusic in search box and you will see they have music mean for creative and think fast as well ! : https://www.popular.com.sg/jsp/index.jsp , Still depend on whether you think it worth the price to pay for the CD.

  don;t worry lah. a lot of ppl have many unsolved problem. the fact that you realised this means you already very smart already. some ppl do dodo also don;t know what they have been doing. but this is life. ppl prefer dododo and not knowing what they doing. because if you dig out the answer and the truth its in fact very ugly.

  Nothing much to do?

  Think something out of the box and suggest it during your dept meeting.

  Or if time seem like not moving, surf internet....
