As we get older, it can be tough to keep our brains sharp. Making changes to our daily lives may help, but it’s not always easy.

Here are some challenges we face:

• Sometimes, we just don’t feel motivated to change our habits.
• It can be hard to add new brain-boosting activities into our routines.
• There’s so much information out there, and it can be really confusing.

So, what can we do about it?

• It helps to find friends or get expert advice. They can keep us on track and motivated.
• We should aim for small goals. For example, we can start with just 10 minutes of brain exercises each day.
• Joining community events can also help us stay motivated and keep a steady routine.

Even with these ideas, improving the brain’s ability to adapt as we age can still be a big challenge.
