Lots of evidence that exercise alone greatly strengthens the brain and prevents dementia. I have even read that they have research that shows exercise may turn on cells at the molecular level that slows aging and creates new neurons. I have also read we are making new brain neurons all the time, BUT if the person is not engaged in thinking they do not stick and decay. That explains a lot. So to keep growing intellectually, biologically, it seems one must keep thinking. And if they keep thinking they build myriad software packages: the expert mind", as you probably know, and takes ten years to develop. I have played poker all my life and made a living at it for a while. I never have to think much. It is all automatic. And I play very fast. All the great thinkers were compulsive thinkers their entire lives. Guys like Einstein only stopped thinking to sleep. Can anyone imagine Plato or Socrates in small talk-lol?
