#3. Check out this classic attention experiment
#4. What do you know about mental self-rotation?
#5. Last but not least, here are ten classic illusions to tease your mind.

Done?
Now name them in reverse alphabetical order.
Done?
Now count the total number of syllables in those six words.
Not easy, right?
All these mental operations engage your working memory — think of working memory as your temporary mental workspace where you can hold and integrate several units of information at once.
Feel free to practice in different locations … you can take these brain teasers with you, anywhere you go 🙂
