If you want to be become smarter, you need to shun ignorance. Some of us were born smart while others have to work towards it as they grow. From the time you were little, your parents told you to be smart. Most Kenyans want to consider themselves smart; certainly no one likes to feel stupid.
But sadly, it’s difficult to determine if you were acting smart in a given situation until the time has passed, and of course, then it’s too late. Being smart helps one to improve their thinking and enable the mind to think differently. To maintain the smartness, one has to master a few things to keep moving no matter what happens.

Shunning down ignorance
Ignorance, they say is no defense. The right attitude greatly involves shunning ignorance by all means because it is that vice that makes the possible seem impossible.

Approach situations differently
Try to be more creative in solving the challenges that come your way. Do not be afraid to take risks. If you fail, do not give up. Instead, try out different ways that would solve out the problem at hand.

Share out your ideas
Sharing what you learn makes it stick in your mind. This also helps to motivate those who think they are unable to achieve something meaningful in life. You are also able to get their view and contribution towards what you have shared.

Surround yourself with people who are smarter than you
