Before you can increase your intelligence you need to examine your life and fix the things that can to be fixed and accept the things that cant. Pic related to this part.

Exercise your brain, use it. look up memory techniques, and try all of them. find which ones work best for you. do crosswords, sudoku, brainteasers, working memory games, read!. these are equivalent to working out, where as intelligence is on the field or court playing the game. some of the training skills will transfer over but do not equate this to intelligence, but it is a prerequisite for improving your intelligence.

next step is to again examine yourself to learn about how you learn. understanding yourself is key if you want to be successful in improving your intelligence. self awareness and self understanding are the goal. this part is very difficult and many people fall short and struggle for the rest of their lives in trying to learn because of lack of self understanding. a lot of times it takes an outside perspective or guidance to completely understand yourself.

Finally learn. learn about the world, learn about nature, learn about what ever you want to learn about. read, and look deep into all things. eventually you will see the patterns. this is essentially what intelligence is, it is perceiving the abstract patterns that exist all around us.

these steps are iterative.

This is relevant, but I've heard that it is outdated. lol i dunno

Pic related, it's Maslow's hierarchy of needs.

>>What are our needs?

Maslow's hierarchy is an excellent guide as it orders them by priority. Pic related. Each can be satisfied only when all those below it already have been.

Surely you have some money. Even if you don't, it would be easier and safer to buy a filter. Usually this is the more cost and time effective option.

Anyhow, what you are doing is... backwards. You can't take an undeveloped nation, give them the necessities, and expect them to develop from there. You need to encourage and direct the development of irrigation canals before anything else. If they exist, expand them because they are obviously not good enought.

Maslows Hierarchy, faggot. Start at the bottom. Work up. It does not happen from the top down. btw I respect what you are doing, you are just doing it wrong.

shelter is a more basic need then problem solving.
