Made Genius

One of the things I learned from this video is that thinking occurs in the Cortex Corpus Colossal, and its more advanced in women. Also that with constant repetition of one thing it goes into long term memory. This is chunking goes into place; where you break down information. 

There I many things I found interesting in this video. The story of Susan is astonishing. In a place were women were not supposed to play chess, she found it highly interesting and having her father as a mentor was excellent. When she was a kid she used to beat elite men at chess. Basically here whole childhood consisted of CHESS. She can play 5 games simultaneously in her head. After all her hard work when she was 15 she became the top ranked women chess player in the world. Hard work does pay off! 

What do I think about this? Very simple, you just need to practice to accomplish her goal. Early stimulation as a child helped her develop the chess skill. I also think that there has to be a balance. Meaning she can be good at chess, but not loose the touch on other important skills.
