Intelligence is given to a person by nature, but this ability can be developed and trained. Such activities are especially important in childhood, but if at one time the necessary impetus to natural abilities was not given, it is possible to achieve an acceptable level of intellectual qualities even in adulthood.

Step 1
There are no easy and universal ways to develop intelligence. The only way to develop abilities is to regularly load them, and not with the same exercise, but with different ones, aimed at training different areas of the mind. As a bonus, in this case, volitional qualities, self-discipline develop, and a solid character is formed.
Step 2
Among the intellectual abilities, one can distinguish analytical (the ability to compare pieces of information with each other), logical (the ability to think, reason, draw conclusions), deductive (the ability to find a general idea from an array of information), critical (the ability to sweep away incorrect conclusions and ideas), predictive (the ability form a model of future events). In addition, the intellectual ability includes the ability to abstract and imaginative thinking, the ability to concentrate and hold attention.
Step 3
Intellectual and logical games train the mental qualities remarkably. These include: chess, checkers, backgammon, preference, poker, educational computer games, logic puzzles. Board games such as chess have been considered the privilege of the best minds - rulers, military leaders since ancient times. They develop not only intelligence, but also memory and the ability to concentrate.
Step 4
They improve the mental abilities of practicing various sciences. Any training contributes to the development of memory and the ability to concentrate. Mathematics trains almost all intellectual abilities, organizes and structures thinking. Reading fiction develops horizons, erudition, forms good taste, teaches you to work with a large amount of information, analyze it and find its application.
Step 5
Keeping a diary helps to train analytical and predictive abilities. Write down the significant events of the day, make plans for the future, analyze the predictions that have come true and not come true.
Step 6
Drawing, memorizing poetry, photographing, playing musical instruments contributes to the development of intelligence. They train intelligence and ballroom dancing, aerobics and any exercises that require coordination of movements, maintaining a certain rhythm.
