The Einstein Factor [Abridged, Audiobook] [Audio CD]

Realizing that this is a science that is in its infancy I am amazed at the results I've gotten from using this book. I haven't even been trying incrediably hard (though I'm now motivated to try much harder) and yet I've already learned techniques to solve puzzles and other things that I used to dread. A couple of notes: this book is good BUT you will get 1000% more out of it if you do the follow extra work.
A) Buy, read, re-read, and do the exercises in Learning How to Draw on the Right Side of the Brain. Image Streaming and Non-Verbal right sided thinking are almost the same thing. This book helps a lot!
B) Learn how to meditate. You don't have to become a guru just practice it a little bit. Image Streaming is mediation.
C) Learn a little bit about self-hypnosis. Just enough to put yourself in a trance should be enough so you'll know what it feels like and know how to get into that state without much effort.
D) Listen to, love, and savor classical/instrumental music. George Winston, Bach, Mozart, you name it.
I am an academic failure but because of this book and the other steps listed above I'm now going back to college to finish my undergrad degree and get a Ph.D in computation congnitive science. I've found that 99% of my "academic" troubles were based on negative thoughts and stuff that other people put in my head (ohh that (pick subject) is too hard, your smart but not that smart, etc.). 99.9% of your "mental" limitations are caused by this negative programming. Get rid of it and (assuming you don't suffer from physical brain damage) you will be able to join Mensa. I know, I went from having an IQ of 120 to having 131 according to eMode.com.

I have read it more than once, and continue to reread it from time to time. I am in a creative industry and have always worked with images or image streaming as its called in the book. I found the book enlightening and fascinating. Its a great peekaboo look into the inner workings of our minds. I found the exercises easy and fun to do.The images were fast and furious.

I have lived in the world of imagery and imagination and pursued a career in the Commercial arts.

The book has allowed me to understand what's going on and be able to tap and exercise that creative process in a new bold way. Very different from what I was used to.
I recommend this read to anyone who is in the creative arts. It will open your eyes to what you have been experiencing all along.
What we all tend to forget, is that we are all creative creatures and the mind the most creative of all, needs to be at play as well as at work. When work becomes play the mind can feel free to be open and grow.

You do need to have an open mind and don't think that you will raise your IQ with one read and trying a few exercises, but you will get an insight and may be surprise as to how interesting life can be The Einstein Factor Way!

I know, I went from having an IQ of 115 to having one high enough to (at least attempt) the Mensa IQ test. That's a jump of 15 points in a little over a month and its only just started.
