Start off your day with a crossword…or even a sudoku puzzle.

Personally, I find there’s an advantage to both.

A crossword helps you access different areas of your brain. While you are searching for clues and thinking of words, your brain makes new synaptic connections. This helps you think in a creative way and come up with a unique perspective.

Sudoku is great for helping calm down your mind. As you think of numbers to populate, the mere act of concentrating helps to maintain your focus.

Happy Day 19 of NaNoWriMo!
