How Does the mind think and reflect easily ?

the mind works efficiently by segregating inputs to diffrent categories like short term, medium and long term memories. short term memories are quickly delete by the brain like plate numbers of cars passing by, color of the shirt of a stranger walking by etc, medium term are stored longer and long term memories are stored longest in the brain like faces, names, age etc of family members.

Brain is the portion of the vertebrate central nervous system that is enclosed within the cranium, continuous with the spinal cord, and composed of gray matter and white matter. It is the primary center for the regulation and control of bodily activities, receiving and interpreting sensory impulses, and transmitting information to the muscles and body organs. It is also the seat of consciousness, thought, memory, and emotion. \nA functionally similar portion of the invertebrate nervous system. \n\nIntellectual ability; mind: a dull brain; a quick brain. \n\nMind the capacity of thinking, reasoning, and acquiring and applying knowledge. Mind refers broadly to the capacities for thought, perception, memory, and decision: “No passion so effectually robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear” (Edmund Burke). Intellect stresses knowing, thinking, and understanding: “Opinion is ultimately determined by the feelings, and not by the intellect” (Herbert Spencer). Intelligence implies solving problems, learning from experience, and reasoning abstractly: “The world of the future will be an ever more demanding struggle against the limitations of our intelligence” (Norbert Wiener). Brain suggests strength of intellect: We racked our brains to find a solution. Wit stresses quickness of intelligence or facility of comprehension: “There is no such whetstone, to sharpen a good wit and encourage a will to learning, as is praise” (Roger Ascham). Reason, the capacity for logical, rational, and analytic thought, embraces comprehending, evaluating, and drawing conclusions: “Since I have had the full use of my reason, nobody has ever heard me laugh” (Earl of Chesterfield). The human consciousness that originates in the brain and is manifested especially in thought, perception, emotion, will, memory, and imagination. \nThe collective conscious and unconscious processes in a sentient organism that direct and influence mental and physical behavior. \nThe principle of intelligence; the spirit of consciousness regarded as an aspect of reality. \nThe faculty of thinking, reasoning, and applying knowledge

Yes.  The human mind is just an incredibly complex computer which can manufacture it's own connections.  All we need to do is get the software and hardware sides of our current technology up to the level of our brains and beyond...  Easier said than done, I know.

thoughts occur all over the brain. some are subconscious and available via dreams and some are conscious i.e. thinking about where u left your keys. While u think many of the millions an millions of neurons will fire in different areas. if your tryin to remember where the keys are, then the area where memory is located will be firing proportionally more.

actually it is very possible. many parts of the brain are yet to be discovered. did you know that the way a single person thinks of an out come can directly affect the object or thing that he or she is thinking of. there has been many studies and all have come to our suprise as true the mind can extend out. its your subconsiousnes. the inner mind

1. A memory system using ridiculous associations.\n2. Through hands-on experience.\n3. By attaching an emotion to the information, it attaches in the brain better.

Like your mind or something..\nLike when you think? Make sense?\n\nWhen you do things without thinking you're stupid.\nBut you use that little friend (your mind) to help you. :)

Learn to control your mind.  Learn to stop the internal chatter.\nThe mind should be a tool and not a tyrant.\nSome might call this Zen, some might say use Yoga.  The how you do this is not as important as the doing.

what thoughts go through your mind?\n\nwhat does it take to get you moving?

It depends on our individual make-up.  Some of us can remember a whole whole lot of what we're told.  Some can remember very little.  It depends on learning styles too.  Some people learn by seeing, some by touching, some by hearing.  Where does it come from?  Somewhere in our brains, but I can't tell you exactly where.

The secret of a good memory is attention, and attention to a subject depends upon our interest in it. We rarely forget that which has made a deep impression on our minds.

It's like a video camera that stays on inside your brain 24/7.  It records everything you see, hear, touch, smell, taste, feel, sense, experience, etc.  It records all memories, fears, emotions, and stores the core beliefs we have about ourselves and the world.\n\nSome examples of how our subconscious "records" information that we aren't aware of that we later recognize are: \n1. losing your car keys but later having the sight of your umbrella trigger you remembering you left them in your raincoat pocket.\n2. driving on a familiar road...getting to your destination..and realizing you don't remember a lot of the drive...Your subconscious mind has a recording of that road and drives it for you while the conscious mind is thinking about what you're cooking for dinner.\n3. smelling a cologne and being reminded of an old boyfriend you haven't thought about in 20 years!  The smell of the cologne has been recorded in the subconscious mind all those years!\n\nYour conscious mind is your very best friend...very open to positive suggestion.  That's the wonderful thing about hypnosis. The conscious mind also tapes and stores healthy, positive suggestions!  (Good for parents of small children to know!)

Kyle, if you can figure this one out, you best write a very long book about it. Science has been working on this for a long time. Obviously, the cerebral cortex has something to do with it, but not all. Awareness, specificially self-awareness, is a slippery fish. I will not give you Wikipedia links, you probably already have them.\n\nRather, look up Julian Jaynes and his work on the Bicameral Mind. Early work but interesting. He thought that once upon a time the two halves of our brains were not very interconnected, that we received messages from the right half as mystical experiences, shamanic insight. The books he wrote are incredibly hard to read. \n\nI will see what else I can dig up for you. Great question. The work on this is ongoing.

EDIT: Half of my answer didn't post for some reason.\n\nScientists have been studying this for years, but never have found an answer.\n\nWhen I spoke to a deaf woman about this idea, this is what she said: "When I think about what I am going to say, I think about it in sign and I sometimes sign in my sleep.  However, when I read something (because there is no written version of sign language) I think about it in English.  Concepts are created visually more often than in English."\n\nFor an actual study, when presented with a stimulus, the visual and language areas of the brain become active, whereas in a hearing person, the auditory and language areas of the brain become active.  While they are processed differently, the language area of the brain is used at all times.\n\nThe only other help I can offer is a study on Genie, a girl who was locked up and unsocialized until about the age of twelve.  While she was able to be somewhat rehabilitated and learn some basic vocabulary, she never figured out how to put complex sentences together, which was thought to show she was not capable of complex thought.  However, the data was compromised because it was thought that she may be mentally challenged.

its a very broad question.  \n\nthe human mind is incredible for retrieving information with details, associating picture memory, with smell and words. how things feel taste..  It also is wonderful for imagining things concepts and creativity.  the human brain has the ability to adapt to things and reason, it can think concepts and fiction.\n\nComputers work differently, they are good at remembering things that have no pattern simply electrical charges in a set order.  A machine designed to keep refreshing that information.  sensors can input information, but the more complex the info the more computing power needed to make sense of it.  \n\ncompare a computer driven car compared to a fighter pilot.  the incoming information in shear data what your brain receives from the senses and throws away useless info before you even realize you saw it.   \n\nYour eyes take in everything.  you brain ignores anything it doesnt feel important.  computers didnt get there yet.

just read, think, think think, then right down whatever comes to your brain. After a while, it's the action that's the hardest part not the idea.
