Information surrounds people everywhere. This is the necessary knowledge, important actions, phone numbers, names. It seems that everything is impossible to control. This function is performed by memory.
Memory is a renewable resource. If you think that your memory is bad, then you simply did not train it. A person can remember absolutely everything if he has mastered some tricks.
The images
Mnemonics teaches imaginative thinking. This skill always works. Try it out in practice. For example, your new employee’s name is Mikhail Petrovich.
Remember the most famous personalities with these names. For example, Mikhail Gorbachev. He was remembered for his characteristic speech, birthmark. The second famous person is Peter the Great. He wore a mustache, laid the foundation of the Navy and became the founder of St. Petersburg.
Try to imagine a mustachioed man in a triangle who is sitting on a horse. If at the sight of your employee you will have this image, you can easily remember his name.
Do the same with numbers. Let's say the series of your passport is 7308, but you cannot remember it. Divide the number into 2 parts. For example, 73 will be the number of your region, and 08 represent it as a plot. Let the figure eight be a sign of infinity, and zero will turn into a stadium. Now imagine a car that goes through this stadium without stopping.
Suppose you have the number 5938750285753295. Remember it completely, you can not. Try splitting it like this: 5938-7502-8575-3295. Agree, now it’s easier to read the number and visually easier to perceive. For this reason, card and phone numbers are recorded through dashes.
This technique can be used not only for numbers. For example, you need to buy products on a list. Sort and number them. In the first category write down products, in the second hygiene products, etc. You can paint by department. For example, indicate that you need to buy 4 products in the dairy department and 3 products in the meat department.
Rhymes
Make up unusual rhymes for words. Remember how in school they memorized poems about the rat Bisector or the pants of Pythagoras. But thanks to them, you still remember some theorems.
Rhyme makes it possible to memorize information in a playful way. You do not need to intentionally teach. Just play, enjoy the process, and the information will be remembered by itself.
Cheat sheets
If you have a lot of friends and the contact list is full, then you cease to navigate in the phone numbers. To do this, fill out the contact profile as much as possible. sign notes to it.
It’s not less efficient to write a name, number and notes in a notebook. You can tell a short story that is connected with this person.
