Simple.Now call out the direction of each arrow. Do it without error in 40 seconds. Keep practicing\u00a0until you can do it in only 20 seconds.\u00a0Next, call out the direction of the arrows as if they were turned a quarter-turn clockwise. Get\u00a0that time down to 20 seconds without error.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Now comes the fun\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Call out the color of the UP and DOWN arrows, and call out the direction of the LEFT and RIGHT\u00a0arrows (this requires divided attention). Once mastered, increase the difficulty by saying red\u00a0for yellow and blue for green. Try substituting different colors. Keep track of your time and stay\u00a0with it until each exercise flows quickly and smoothly.\u00a0Last, call out the direction of the arrow as if red and green arrows were turned a \u00bc-turn\u00a0clockwise and yellow and blue were turned \u00bc-turn counterclockwise. You will find yourself<br \/>\nnot only doing the familiar ones easier, but mastering each new variation faster as well. This is\u00a0because your brain is growing new connections to handle the challenges!<\/p>\n<hr size=\"2\" \/><strong>Attention problems get a lot of attention these days!
