How I Learned to Remember Everything

The Simple Trick That Boosted My Memory Tenfold

With today’s technology it may seem like we don’t really have to use our memory to remember things. We can just look it up, right? Well, yes and no. Yes, we have a world of information at our fingertips that is easily accessible at any time, day or night. But then there are other things that we want to keep stored in our own memory banks for future or daily use.

When studying school work, learning a new language, taking on a new job or developing a new skill, these things all require memorization. And sometimes it can be a challenge to retain the information you need to know.

Before we had computers to remember everything for us, people memorized all kinds of things. Addresses, phone numbers, poetry, and speeches, just to name a few! Our brain can be trained to hold far more data than we usually ask it to.

Our brains aren’t actually a muscle, but with exercise, it can be toned and its abilities improved. What if we wanted to use that to our advantage to enhance our learning skills, and retain more of what we’ve learned? Is there an easier way to do that than cramming hours of information into our minds, and then expecting to recall it again whenever we need it?
