How To: Improve Your Memory.

Correlate namesThere are few things as nerve-racking as meeting someone you already know but forgetting their name. You can resolve the situation by associating them to someone they look like or to a word linked to one of their character traits. Play with their name (Big Bad Billy, Kooky Kathy) and have a visual image of them in your mind.
Make a concept mapMake a visual painting of what you're trying to remember. Structure a topic in your mind so that you can see everything clearly. Then, when there's something you're forgetting, visualize this shape and your brain will allow you to recover the data. In addition, ensure that you comprehend the nitty-gritty of a topic before trying to commit it to memory-interconnected specifics.
all-purpose guidelinesThe following tips will ensure that your memory is sharper than ever.
Enjoy the informationWe always remember the things in which we are interested. If you despise mathematics, you'll have a very hard time remembering complicated theorems. But if you read up on the topic and discover the plight of the scientists who developed them, you will be directly involved and remembering them will be almost effortless. The same goes for everything. There's a reason why the phone number of your favorite pizza place is easier to recall than that of your dentist's office.
Take your timeMemory isn't instantaneous; you have to give yourself enough time to absorb information. Some things can be remembered more quickly than others, of course, but don't berate yourself for not being fast enough. When you are trying to remember something, keep your energy level high and concentrate effectively.
RelaxPressure works for some people, but most of us function better when we're not afflicted with anxiety. Take deep breaths; tell yourself that you have all the time in the world and that not remembering something is fine. Relaxing will serve to enhance your awareness and your ability to remember.
Be selectiveThere's no way anyone can remember everything in life. You must be choosy; select what you want to commit to memory and allow your mind to forget the rest. Your brain is like a file cabinet, so throw away what you don't need and make room for the important stuff.
Keep your mind activeApathy may be fine on a Sunday morning, but it shouldn't be a way of life. The more you keep your psyche dynamic, the better it will operate. This is even more important as you get older. Do crossword puzzles, learn a new word every dayand read constantly. Be relentless in exercising your wits.
Care for your healthThe brain is intimately linked to the body. Exercise every day, vie for first-class blood flow and stimulate your lungs. Eat properlyto give your system the right nutrients and vitamins. Heavy use of alcohol and drugs can deteriorate your memory. Furthermore, consuming ginkgo biloba, lecithin and phosphatidylserine can improve your memory.
super memoryIn essence, all these tips are about focusing and paying attention to things. Care about what you want to remember and put some genuine effort into it. The more you practice your newfound skills and keep your mind active, the more your memory will improve.
It's worth doing since everyone thinks highly of people with good memories. It could seriously help you at work and in your personal life.
