what are things you can do to improve your IQ?

i would like to answer the question by first of all defining IQ. IQ (Intelligent Quotient) is a score that is derived from one several standardized tests attempting to measure intelligence (Wikipedia) and intelligence is capacity of mind especially to understand principles truth facts or meanings acquire knowledge and apply it to practice; ability to learn and comprehend(wiktionary) with this background it is safe to say increasing one's IQ is the same thing as increasing the intelligence.

Since intelligence has to do comprehending and understanding, challenging games are the first that come for me as IQ boosters board games like chess, Monopoly, Risk and even other games like connect 4 are good examples of games that can boost one IQ. they are good because most of them teach strategy and quick wittiness. Rubik cube is also another good idea. i would personally advise that children should encouraged to play these games more, it would go a long way to improve they skills. These are simple things one can do to improve their IQ. these games are readily available online at sites like amazon.com

Another way i think the IQ can be improved upon is to take on tasks that stretch our imaginations and minds like brainstorming sessions on business ideas. helping in flesh out ideas until they can be implemented. i don not intend to bore with a lot of words so i will finish by saying that i personally believe that to a large degree the concept of IQ cannot be measured by the calibration that is obtainable presently.
