给自己大脑充电的好方法

Have you ever felt exasperated when you bumped into someone at the store but absolutely couldn't remember their name? Sure, it happens to all of us.

你有没有因为在商店里遇到某个人却死活想不起他的名字而觉得又急又气？当然了，我们每个人都碰到过这种情况。

Despite being the strongest computer on the planet, our brains do lapse. It's hard to blame them really. As humans, we spend much of or existence stuffing our brains with stuff. Some stuff is worthless, some of it's meaningful, some of it, well, it's just stuff and there is an endless amount of it.

即使被称为世上最强劲的计算机，我们的大脑还是会忘记一些东西。这不能责怪它们。作为人类，我们花费了大量脑力，或者用东西填满大脑。有些东西毫无价值，而有些东西很有意义，只是有些，是啊，就是这些东西，越来越多，没完没了。

No matter how powerful our brains are, they need recuperation time, to be kept in shape, and even an occasional charge. Think of it as a tune up for your brain. Skipping brain maintenance is as silly as the person wandering the parking garage because they forgot where they parked. Is that you? Are you that person? Sure. We all are at some point. No worries, there is hope.

不论我们的大脑有多么强大，它们还是需要休息恢复的，保持状态良好，甚至偶尔的充充电。请把这看作是大脑的休养生息。忽视大脑保养是很傻的，就像有人在停车场里瞎走，因为他们忘记自己把车停在哪里了。你会这样吗？你是那个找不到车的人吗？没错。从某种程度而言，我们都有这样的问题。不过，别担心，还是有希望的。

Now I am not a brain surgeon and I am not going to suggest you do anything surgical or dangerous. I am however an astute student of human behavior, so I always look for simple ways to super charge my brain.

我不是脑外科医生，我也不打算建议你去做任何手术或者任何危险的事情。但我是一个聪明的人类行为学学生，所以我一直在寻找简单的方法来为大脑充电。
