What’s an “open mind”? Good question!
Summarised from an email I received the other day from James Brown:

“Well, its one that is “open” to letting go of the past, its open to learning & exploring new things. It’s not judgemental; nor does it quickly form an opinion or shut down.We all know that opinions are like “elbows”, we’ve all got a couple of them! And, opinions tend to separate us and rather than bring us together as a whole being. Learn to harness the power of your mind! WikiHow has an article on ways to exercise an open mind, claiming that an open mind is the key to a smarter brain.

Simply put, all someone needs to grow his or her brain is to do unique, random, different, and ridiculous things as often as possible. One hour of increased brain activity via thinking a lot or experiencing new stimuli can make you smarter, more energetic, more creative, and more sociable.
