In order to study the secret of success, scientists use various scientific examination methods to analyze the differences between the brains of successful people and those of ordinary people.
One of the most famous experimental methods is to use the fMRI test we mentioned before to scan the brains of two groups and compare the functional activity levels of the two groups of brains.
The researchers soon concluded that the brains of successful people are very good at eliminating distractions, which is the most important factor in their success.
Take student Xie for example. Her concentration was described as terrifying by the senior teachers, which means that all the teachers know that her concentration is the secret of her success.
How is a person's concentration related to his or her brain?
The researchers then conducted fMRI experiments to investigate, and the results showed that the level of concentration may be related to one of the structures in the brain: called the reticular activating system.
This structure is located in the brain, extending from the upper end of the spinal cord to the diencephalon. Its internal structure is composed of a mixture of nerve cells and nerve fibers in the ventral center of the brainstem.
Because it is shaped like a net, it is called a mesh system.
The reason why it is called activation is because when medical scientists first discovered it, they believed that its function was like a switch, controlling the opening and closing of a person's sleep and wakefulness.

As research continues to deepen, it is found that the reticular activating system not only activates people to wake up from sleep, but is also related to the regulation of people's emotions, memory, concentration, learning, etc.
In this regard, the reticular activating system can be imagined as a super regulator that regulates the coordination of the functions of various parts of the brain.
Coordination is positively correlated with efficiency, so the reticular activating system can be said to be a major factor in the human brain that affects whether a person becomes a top student or a poor student.
What affects the level of a person's reticular activating system?
After much research, researchers have discovered that they have returned to the original point, which is what humans have been most concerned about since the beginning: interest.
Talking about the secret of interest and the brain is a topic that has been talked about many times. Interest is not only related to the reticular activating system of the brain. Interest is closely related to various structures and functions of the brain. There are too many research results to prove this.
I just didn't realize that interest is always the first driving force for people. This is something that education has said many times, and it applies to whether one can succeed in work or life.
Some people may find it strange at this point. I am obviously interested in this industry, but why can’t I improve my concentration and my brain’s efficiency?
The interest understood by ordinary people and the interest that experimenters come up with when doing experiments are two different things.
You think you are interested, but is your brain really interested in it? What you say doesn't count. It is very common for the human body to deceive itself.
For example, you may be dizzy with a fever and think that you don't have a serious fever, but when you take your temperature, you find that it is almost 40 degrees, which scares the doctor.
Quantitative indicators are used to make judgments in clinical research, rather than based on your own feelings.
When people write articles telling you that interest is the most important thing, they are not lying to you. The biggest deception of these articles is that they cannot tell you how to judge your own interests.
After hearing this, you will understand that the biggest secret of successful people is actually knowing where their interests lie. Therefore, they can keep their brains in contact with their interests to improve brain efficiency.
