The goal of the game is to enter a high performance state (HPS). The condition is characterized by increased brain activity (relative to the normal state). This helps to make decisions, get answers to difficult questions, find ways out of problem situations, and maybe even significantly change the attitude towards such situations.
A rectangle of a random color with the name of the color is randomly shown in different parts of the screen. The name of the color may not match the color of the rectangle. The goal of the game is to name the color whose name is written in the rectangle. Also, instead of the name of the color, the words "COTTON" and "JUMP" may appear. When the word "COTTON" appears, you need to clap your hands, and when the word "JUMP" appears, jump slightly. These options are configurable and can be disabled.

*** RULES OF THE GAME ***
BEGINNING OF THE GAME
Think about the problem situation: imagine it visually, remember the sounds, remember the position of the body, feel it, write it down. Associate with the problem or task as much as possible.
GO TO THE GAME
Change the position of the body, breathing, shake your shoulders. And go straight to the game.
DIRECT GAME
Choose the speed of the game so that it is difficult and interesting enough for you to play, so that the game is fun.
Choose a game time: minimum 2 minutes, recommended about 10 - 15 minutes.
Start the game.
A rectangle with the name of a random color or the words "clap" or "jump" is shown on the screen in a random color. Sometimes the color name and the displayed color of the rectangle may be the same, and sometimes not. It is necessary to name the color regardless of the written word. In this case, if the word "clap" is displayed, you must clap your hands. When the word "jump" is displayed, you need to jump slightly.
FINAL PART
Return to task context. It may not be possible to do this right away. Make every effort to do so. It is important.
Recognize the problem again. Notice the change in your attitude towards the task.
DO YOU KNOW THAT …
The game is one of the games of the New Code of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) that creates an even and safe load on the brain and allows you to enter a state of high productivity. This allows you to see the world in a different light for a short time.
It is recommended to play regularly - 2-3 times a week.
This game uses the Stroop effect (work on the effect published in 1935) - a delay in the reaction to reading a word if the word stands for one color but is written in a different color. The test is aimed at creating additional neural interhemispheric connections in the brain.
The exercise is focused on the development of color perception, reaction speed, volume, distribution, stability, concentration, attention switching, the ability to perform several actions at the same time (parallel processing).
