Research has shown that our memory isn’t as good as we think, and we often fail to recall logos of the most famous brands.

Brain teasers aren’t only satisfying, but they also have the ability to rewire our brains if practiced often enough. And this probably explains the phrase “use or lose it,” which only proves how our brains need continual workouts. By keeping our minds stimulated, we keep them strong and healthy.

The more you practice mental agility the better you’ll become at quickly solving problems.

When starting to solve a puzzle or a riddle, we live for that moment when we’re able to say, “Aha!” The satisfaction and joy we feel are immense, and our brains brighten up like a yellow light bulb, like in cartoons.

And we can’t really blame people for wanting to challenge their brains and feel smart.
