The very same goes for that all-important deadline you may need to meet in the office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many of us, music is the key to this conundrum \u2013 setting a perfect soundtrack to calm nerves, focus the mind and increase creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But not all types of music are made equal when it comes to boosting brain power. In fact, according to many studies, music listened to while studying should have no lyrics, as any speech can cause distraction when your brain is trying to process words. Music should also be played at a moderate volume, as anything too loud can begin to unsettle and hamper creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, when it comes to music, everyone\u2019s tastes are different \u2013 so it\u2019s important to find a genre you enjoy in order to keep the mind happy and focused.
