Stage: 3
Session number: 9
Average n-back: 2.1
Tough one tonight-had to push through and finish an entire session. Would’ve helped if I had done the meditation beforehand. Couldn’t calm the monkeys in my mind. Showed up in my audio score. Much lower than my visual. I’ll see if training with just the audio might help.

finally, got back out of 2.5 rut. that n-3 is a duzy. a real workout for the noggin. that’s why i love it so much. my script writing has had breakthroughs in the past 3 days, really thinking more fluidly that usual. I love this stuff. what a workout. i get up and train my body, then i meditate then brain train. my life is just about ready to go to the next level, i can feel it.

Stage: 3
Session number: 5
Average n-back: 2.05
General State: Felt good. Had a good day at work. I feel a bit calmer – maybe a bit more focused.
Observations: Same score as last night ( BTW – should be 2.05 for last night – I made a mistake in last post ) but came close to 3′s on more occasions. My attention seems to go sometimes and it’s a bit like I forget both what I am doing and what is happening in the session…it can be a bit demoralising. If these moments are blind spots I am hoping to minimise them.
Managed one 3 – got to a 2.05 ( again ).
Mood: Good – I am enjoying my time doing these tests.

Session number: 7
Average n-back: 2.9
My best session yet and made it to n-4 a few times. N-4 will be very hard for me. Did N-3 much better. The last three blocks I did terrible, kind of like my brain gave up for one day. I am excited to see some progress.
I did the brain sharpner in the morning and do beleive that it helped me have a great day. I will try it again tomorrow. Good Night!

Stage: 3
Session number: 6
Average n-back: n=2
Pretty much the same as last time. Got to n=3 twice. Goal is to hold it there at least two times in a row! Hanging in there with one set daily. Son picked up and started again. Also doing entrainment in the morning. It wakes me up and I feel clear in my mind.

Session number: 3
Average n-back: 2
Went up to n=3 three times! I’m getting better at n=2 level. It is hard to go up to n=3, but even harder to flip my brain back to n=2. I think I felt my brain grow on this one. Can I improve my working memory just by staying on n=2 forever? This was fun.

Stage: 3
Session number: 26
Average n-back: 2.5
okay, so i’m back to 2.5, but now that i got the hang of it, and not thinking it’s all n-2 in stage 3, i believe i will get better. i thought the same thing when i started, of how tough it was. but today even though i didn’t go up, i felt like my brain got a serious workout. i nailed the n-2 about 90% of the time. had a hard physical workout today so feeling bit fatigued. but all in all it was a great day of training both mentally and physically. now a bit of meditating and then some writing. create a fantabulous weekend.

i did the same 2.3, was tired, been auditioning everyday this week and Nailing every audition, I am so focused it’s crazy, feeling good. been training physically and brain training, got up very early today, so, exhausted. but, maintaining a constant score. need to do it while rested up. i got perfect 12 hits, 4 times though, so that’s good. loving life, thinking differently, really noticing the effects of this program. I highly recommend it to anyone needing a brain tune up. which everyone does. BOOYAH!

wow, it’s tough getting higher than 2.5, although I’m seeing my brain really trying to stay focused, If you let go for a second, you could lose a hit and throw you off, it’s a workout, indeed and i love it. thanks and create an impeccable day.

so I went down a notch today, 2.4 did it yesterday and stayed at 2.5. I went to the gym today and pushed myself physically hard, so my noggin is tired. but hey, here’s what i’m noticing with me which never happened…
i’m reading everything day and comprehending what i’m reading, that feels great. i feel more focused, brain is more alert, i’m thinking more productively. more positive, writing is coming along nicely, feeling overall so much better. LOVE THIS PROGRAM. it’s GREEEAAAT!
