What is Intellect? What is an Intellectual person?
The ability of the mind to Understand, to think deeper, to come to a correct conclusion about what is true and what is false, to know how to solve problems can be termed as intellect.
An extremely rational person, a person who relies on intellect rather than on emotion or feelings is an intellectual person.
According to Sanatan Dharma, the First step towards this journey would get started when you select to be an intellectual person from that point in time your intellectual power start increasing, You may call it the power of affirmation.
The second step needs your hunger for Intellectual Power, Now when you are already on a path to gain more and more intellectual power and wants to try all other means then Sanatan Dharma tells you to maintain a routine where you should wake up before sunrise (1-2 hrs before) and never sleep in the day time. We all know the famous proverb "Early to bed and Early to Rise, Makes a man Healthy, Wealthy and Wise" and that's really true.
In the third step when you are already maintaining an Early Bed and Early Rise routine and want more then Sanatan Dharma suggests you recite two words before going to bed and after getting a wake up in the morning i.e. "Shiv" and "Narayan"
Before you sleep you should recite "Shiva" for at least 15 min. According to Bhagwat Purana if you want to gain knowledge then you should concentrate on "Shiva"(The supreme consciousness)
After you wake up you should recite "Narayan" for at least 15 min. This technique is similar to affirmations yet these two words are more powerful not because of their importance in literature but because of their pronunciation which generates positive vibrations. You should check about cymatics in order to truly visualize what I am trying to tell you.
Till now what I told was totally related to your inner body and soul which needs your power of belief to work effectively.
Now we'll talk about Ayurveda, which tells you to eat some herbs in order to maintain your neurochemicals to develop a higher intellect.
