There are some habits that people consider stupidity or a result of mental weakness.
In fact, most people associate them with inability to concentrate, poor discipline or mental decline.
But there is one such habit that the world considers strange, but in research reports it has been linked to intelligence.
Yes, there is indeed such a habit, self-talk, which people do not consider very good.
But according to research reports, if you are addicted to self-talk, you are not crazy, but it can be a sign of being more intelligent than other people.
By the way, people do not consider this behavior good, but evidence has emerged that indicates that this habit benefits the brain, such as improving memory, increasing confidence, and helping to focus.
A 2012 study found that people who talk to themselves identify objects in pictures faster.
Similarly, a 2023 study found that there is a link between self-talk and self-control or discipline.
The study found that people who talk to themselves often know themselves better.
But this benefit only occurs when self-talk is done in moderation, while self-criticism can have negative effects.
So if you are used to self-talk, don’t be ashamed of it, this strange habit can help you analyze details and sharpen your mind.
