A meal for the brain
Think for second; the owner of a multimillion-dollar business empire, who can access any form entertainment whenever he would wish, why would he entertain himself with puzzles? According to Gates, he likes it.
Puzzles have secrets hidden under deep folds; they take us far away from all the other worries. You reach a completely new world through logic, intelligence, luck, hands and sometimes with just a tip of the pencil, a world in which you face the complications, which are really but the solution to your problems.
A puzzle is like a song – a fine puzzle can give you all the delights of being loony, just like a mysterious tale does. Puzzles are capable of amazement, knowledge, conversations, meaningfulness and erasing the emotional stress through its solutions.
From the beginning of every new day, new challenges start building themselves up. The moment we wake up, the brain starts getting assignments for the day’s work. In fact, when we are asleep at night, even then, through the dreams our brain is trying to churn and organize everything that has happened during the day. The ever working brain yearns for challenges and the perplexing puzzles does this work the best. Through them, the nerve of our brain gets a great work out session.
Why are we so eager to solve mysteries and puzzles? Why, despite the fact that the world is filled with over a thousand mediums for entertainment, Sudoku, picture puzzles and many more such small or big, some hard and some easy puzzles excites us so much that we end up leaving all the work behind just to solve them? Because...
It is a unique way to spend the time by solving puzzles. The interesting concept of the questions and their complexity is what that prompts us to solve the puzzles. An excellent puzzle is like a thing that is pleasant, candid, satisfactory and pellucid. In which nobody lies. They are vivid and the puzzles are dependent on you, it is your necessity to solve them.
Puzzles are no less than an educational plaything. A brain is made to solve the riddles of information, and so it loves puzzles. Have you ever noticed that whenever a person sees an object for the first time, the first question is always, "What is this?"
Do not try to get to know the whole world within the first try. It is a very difficult thing to do. There is a possibility that you will get tired and will drop it in the middle. So, try to solve a small portion of it. Even better; create your own world, in which there can be interesting elements and rules- a game, a puzzle, a principle, a revelation.
The brain has an excessive need for mental challenges, and the meal of puzzles keeps it active and healthy.

Totally agree with the article. It really takes the person into another world.
ReplyDeleteThere have been times when I've felt this so addicting . Love solving puzzles
This addiction is better than those of video games and tv. Because in things such as video games, even though one is active, they become aggressive.
DeleteVery nicely written, solving puzzle enhances your creativity and helps to increase concentration.
ReplyDeletei love sudoku and you know i am quite good at it.
You are absolutely right, they really are a good source to help increase one's creativity and concentration.
DeleteVery interesting:)
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
Deleteजिस तरह शरिर को स्वस्थ रखने के लिए पैष्टिक खाना जरुरी है ठीक उसी तरह बुद्धी को स्वस्थ रखने के लिए पहेलियां आदि जरुरी है। सुंदर प्रस्तुति।
ReplyDeleteशुक्रिया ज्योति जी, वैसे कहते है जिदंगी भी एक पहेली ही है।
DeleteGood point. Yes - it was partly fulfilling but could have been better. More and more I find that what I read by myself, or watch in the form of TED talks on youtube is far more stimulating for the brain than useless chatter, or badly prepared talks.
ReplyDeleteThat really is always better than the useless chatter :)
DeleteSolving puzzle gives an exercise to brain. Solving puzzle gives satisfaction and confidence that yes I can do it. Thank you for sharing.
