Improving our general knowledge is important as it keeps us updated on the various happenings at national and international levels.
There are many different ways to increase our general knowlege but we cannot put a time limit on it.
We should surround ourself with information eg; learning about the political system of ones country, looking up demographics, comparing ones culture to somewhere else in the world and the history of a country.
Apart from the fact that a number of various entrance tests are designed to assess our awareness of current affairs and general knowledge, people still tend to associate general knowledge with intelligence and awareness.
As an added advantage, it makes us a great and interesting conversationalist.
We can improve our general knowledge in a number of ways and few of them are listed below:
Reading: the tried and tested formula to improve our general knowledge is to read. Read anything that we can lay our hands upon – books, magazines, newspapers, journals. Inculcate the habit of reading to expand the circumference of our knowledge.
Writing: we easily tend to forget what we have read. Writing helps we retain that knowledge and reinforces information in our brain. So write, make short notes that we can retrieve whenever the need arises.
Viewing Youtube : It also offers us knowledge in just about every field and that too in a very interesting way. News channels keep we updated with the latest happenings around the Globe.
Smart use of the Internet: Save some time from Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and other such time-killers and indulge in the more knowledgeable sources on the Internet. The World is on the Internet in every sense of the word and so that is where we will find lots of information on just about everything.
Socialize: Confinement narrows our outlook and sets a limit to our knowledge. The company of like-minded, experienced individuals can do wonders for our general awareness. The bigger our network of friends, colleagues, and other acquaintances, the better informed we are.
Solve puzzles and quizzes: Play games and attempt quizzes that challenge our brain. The more we will challenge our brain, the stronger it becomes. Just try to do some solving crosswords, mental mathematics, draw a map from memory, make word pictures; there are many ways to exercise our mind and sharpen our memory.
Keep our curiosity alive: Most important! Remain curious and never stop questioning. Be a child, question everything and find answers. Whenever faced with a challenge, try to find the answer from every available source.
