well... i only got 4 out of the ten correct on the lateral thinking puzzle IQ test..which doesn't make me feel smart at all. Although I missed so many of the questions my score was relatively close to my actual IQ from the test that wwe took in class (but 10 points lower). oh well..like for real what is a 'sort of toad'?
next i played a game called isoball. the point of this game is to create a path for the ball to land in this hole. you can only use a certain amount of each type of brick though. this game was easy and fun until about level 5..then it got hard...like nearly impossible, but it made my brain work! well, next i played metaphysik. that game is hard! you have to guide a ball into this box using the arrow keys and if you hit any of the walls it starts over! i got to level 19 and had to stop. the spinning rainbow ball was giving me a headache.
my article...http://www.psychologytoday.com/collections/201112/the-upside-down-times/learning-think-optimist
soo.. this article said that you should be strong even during tough times. if plan a doesnt work for you have a plan b and maybe you will be successful. the article said that if you dont give up during tough times it will only make you a better, stronger person. when describing events in your past it's what you believe about what happens in your life that determines how you react to it rather than the event itself.
Don't feel bad about the IQ test. I didn't do well on that test too. I can't believe we played the same games. It was really giving me a headache on metaphysik too XD"
ReplyDeleteI LIKE YOUR ARTICLE. STRENGTH SHOULD BE A CONSTANT NOT A VARIABLE
ReplyDeleteEllery! :) Dont sweat the lateral thinking puzzle, that stuff gets really hard even if you guess! But try those puzzles often and you will get a lot better at them which will help our brains with crtitical thinking! :)
