How and Why does it work?
Simply put, if you can count and know your abc’s you can use these tips to improve your memory. We all have the ability to retain separate images in our minds quite easily, and by using this kind of system of combining different elements, the images remain quite distinct from one another. Since they are sequence based with a system we are already familiar with, that of counting, we know we won’t miss anything important.
Check out this FACT: When Albert Einstein died they opened up his head to look at his brain. It was actually smaller than average size! However, he used much more than most people. By practicing these memory “stunts” you will enable yourself to retain larger amounts of information. Being a genius is not so much as being smart or clever, but about seeing how one part of life fits with another part of life. The more you know, the more you can link them together. So let’s start thinking like a genius!
An example of this practice is remembering numbers. Let’s try an easy one 81476. Try to picture each number as a shape or object. (8) how about a snowman. (1) how about a paint brush. (4) how about a sail of a yacht. (7) how about a cliff. (6) maybe a trunk of an elephant. Now create a quick story linking them together. The snowman was using a paintbrush to paint his yacht on a cliff while feeding his pet elephant. While numbers tend to get jumbled in our head this method gives a visual that can be remembered a lot more easily. While this might seem complicated, having a standard shape or object for each number (at all times) will make it simple with practice.
Unfortunately, you can not decide where something goes into your memory – into short term or into long term! In fact, it will ALWAYS go into short term memory first and requires further effort to get it into the long term memory area. It’s like having a filing tray and a filing cabinet. You can only store so much in the filing tray until you need to get it into the cabinet.
It might not be too surprising to note that there is a significant link with good nutrition and a powerful memory. After all. The building blocks of the brain are organic, the electrical signals are produced from the body. The results are that the better you eat the better you are able to perform. More information on this and many other topics can be found at the authors website. Try to work these skills into your everyday life and you will guarantee results.
