You have an amazing memory! They just never taught you how to use it.

The simple truth is that learning how to use your memory is much like learning how to read for the first time. Just imagine, if you never learned how to read you wouldn't understand anything from a written book! This sentence would not mean anything to you. A person that was taught how to read is really no different than a person that didn't learn it. No children are born knowing how to read, it is only a skill that you learn and train in school. It's the same with memory. Although it may look like a mystery when someone can memorize an entire book by heart, it's just about the know-how and practical training. It's a shame they don't teach you this in school, because every 6-year old would be able to grasp the principles of memory instantly.

We'll look at two basic techniques. If you want to learn more, every single efficient memory technique available today is described in the free manual availible at the bottom of this page.

How memory works

Memory is all about forming connections in your head. It's a relatively easy concept to grasp. Think about the shoes you wore today. Your brain will be able to go down endless paths of of memories trough connections. Where did you buy them? Did anything special happen when you had these shoes on? How do they compare to the other shoes you have owned? Who was with you in the situations you remember? Do you remember something about this person?

You can then branch out in any direction from there, memories will just appear in your head. It is the natural flow of how the brain works. We will use this to our advantage!

Technique 1: The “Chain” Method

 

In this first technique you will use your imagination to connect images in pairs. When you imagine the objects, try to keep them about the same size.

We'll remember a small sequence of images. Safe, Candle, Hammer, Rolling chair, Video camera, chair. Allow about 6 seconds to form a connection between two images.

With this method a shopping list could be remembered fast and accurately. See if you can remember 30 random words. You will be amazed about how natural this feels to your brain, and how easy it is.

In the free manual you can read about the uses of this technique, and why we don't use long sequences of these images because they will be deconstructed with time. If you want to store memories for a longer time, other methods are used.

Technique 2: The “Russian Doll” Method

When you memorize an image sequence using the “Russian Doll” method, the images are inserted into each other, like in the famous Russian doll.

Relative sizes of the connected images in every pair: big + small.

In reality, a small image (imagined largely) and a part of big image (large in imagination) are connected.

 

 

Each memorized element remains free and more images (medium-sized) can be written on it later on;

Memorization of an image sequence using the ”Russian Doll” method stabilizes images in the imagination when they are remembered. The next picture will not appear in your imagination unless you intentionally zoom in on a part of the first image.

 

You can learn how to improve your memory today!

Memory shouldn't be a mystery to you anymore. It's just a very useful skill. It's important to remember that the techniques are only a piece of the puzzle of a complete memory skill. If we compare it to learning how to read, you could say that the techniques are the alphabet of amazing memory. You need to learn when to use them, and how to use them. This must be trained so it is not something that you are thinking about, but something that comes natural to you. Just imagine the face of your friends when you can remember entire books, numbers hundreds of digits long and the names of everyone you meet.
