In today’s world, where cognitive abilities and technical skills are often highlighted as the primary contributors to success, the importance of emotional intelligence (EI) tends to be overlooked.

According to studies, our memory optimises decision-making by only remembering key points or valuable information. Forgetting the unimportant details is basically making space or optimising the memory for what matters. Researchers from the University of Toronto stated that new memories could overwrite old memories. They said, “It is important for the brain to forget irrelevant details. People can instead focus and optimise their memory to help them make intelligent decisions in the real world.”

Children who speak their native language at home with their parents while growing up in a different country may have higher IQs, according to a new small-scale UK study.
