Quick Memory Training to Memorize a List of Items

Hi Friends,
Here I am going to share a self test and interesting memory training. .
OK take a paper and write down the list as shown below.

01.Dog
02.Shoes
03.Cinema
04.Dragon
05.Cycle
06.Telephone
07.Pen
08.Juice
09.Tiger
10.Music

OK now you have written them all. Now you have just have to test your memory power. Take a blank paper and try to write as much as you can recall from this list. Don't bother about the order of the item. The item is numbered to show you a magic that will be coming after sometime and follow the instructions me will tell here. You have just read and write once these items in order and see that how much you can recall.

Now see that in your mind screen some of the visuals that I am going to say. So visualize a Dog a big fat dog and now see that this dog is going to put two big shoes in its leg. Now have to see that this Dog wearing these shoes going to watch a Cinema. In the Cinema there is a Dragon starring who is riding a Cycle. Suddenly this Cycle hit a big Telephone and dragon fell down from the cycle. See that the Telephone is now got repaired by you with a Pen. Pen is filled with Juice instead of ink. Now a small black out, see that you are serving some glass of Juice to a Tiger. Now see that this Tiger is dancing with Music...yeah That's it.

Now you just take a paper and think of Dog, what you will get Shoes, then next what? yeah ? Cinema...yeah Just like that...So thinking that this will be a small help from me for your memory enhancement then I am happy. :)

Happy Memorizing

Regards,
Riaz

LESSSON 2 - Mini Memory Course

This is a Memory Lesson that I got through Email from the Memory Master - Nishant Kasibhatla.
Here is the second lesson

Albert Einstein said a long time back "Imagination is more important than knowledge".

Was he right? Of course he is right!

The point to note is the word "more" in his statement. That means knowledge is important. But imagination is more important.

I will go a step ahead and say that "organized knowledge" is ESSENTIAL to excel in any skill.

Here I am talking about knowledge of memory techniques.

Question: Did your schoolteachers give you the knowledge of
"how to memorise"?
Answer:???????

?????????

Think about it. A majority of schools in the world do not teach any memory techniques or strategies for children. As a result of which, the student has to devise his own ways of memorising information and usually end up acquiring one
particular way of memorising information.

And that is REPETITION.

Right from the student stage to the adult stage, many people slog to learn information in the wrong ways.

OK, WHAT IS THE RIGHT WAY OF MEMORISING?
Simple. Pay Attention!

That's right. The easiest way to memorise information is to pay attention. This appears so simple, but it is alarming to note that many people don't even have a slightest clue of how to pay attention.

The 3 easiest ways to pay attention:

1.Visualise:

Try to convert the information you want to memorise into pictures. This very process forces attention. Also, the time taken to memorise will be reduced drastically.

2.Association:

This is so important that I have created another section for it and will explain about the power of association in my next email.

3.Fun:

Try to search ways and means with the help of which you can have fun while memorising. I know this sounds difficult. Most people associate learning and memorising with stress. The more you do this, the more stress you will continue to
have while memorising. Think different. Try to have fun.

But as I have told you earlier, just the knowledge about this doesn't help much. You need to take action. From now on, answer the following 3 magic questions whenever you want to memorise any information.

3 MAGIC QUESTIONS

1.How can I Visualise this information?

2.How can I associate this information with something I
already know?

3.How can I have fun while memorising?

What if you could not answer some of the above questions? It still works! By just TRYING to answer the above 3 questions, you are thinking about the information in a way you never did before. You literally force all of your attention on the
information. This is so simple and effective.

Try it today and you are bound to get the results.

Wishing you a great memory!

Yours memorably,

LESSSON 1 - Mini Memory Course

This is a Memory Lesson that I got through Email from the Memory Master - Nishant Kasibhatla.

Few days back, I attended a birthday party of one of my friends. There, he introduced me to a director of a large Multinational Company. After the initial small talk, I told about my Memory training programmes and he got interested in them. He ran out of his business cards and asked me to "note down" his telephone number. Please pay attention to the dialogue between us. This will give you a clue to the "main culprit" for having a bad memory.

Director: Why don't you note down my number.

Me: It's ok. You tell me the number. I will memorise it.

Director: Are you sure, you can remember? Why do you take risk? Why don't you write it down?

Me: Hey, I can do it. I am a Grand Master of Memory. Remembering a 10-digit number is too easy for me.

Director: oh is it? Congrats. But I want to play safe.

AND HE ACTUALLY BORROWED A PIECE OF PAPER FROM SOMEONE, WROTE DOWN HIS NAME AND HIS TELEPHONE NUMBER AND PUT THE PAPER IN MY POCKET!

He badly needed my memory training, and later his company became one of my clients.

Well, what surprised me is his firm belief that I can't remember the number, in spite of telling him that I am a memory expert. Why is this?

This guy is not even happy with the belief I have in my memory. Think about his belief in his own memory. Isn't it amazing?

The No. 1 culprit, which is a stumbling block for anyone's memory improvement is this:

LACK OF BELIEF.

Most people don't believe in their existing memory capacity. There are many reasons why this happens.

1.You might have tried a variety of ways to learn new information, but nothing worked.

2.Listening and believing in "anti-memory-power" statements like "Write it down, otherwise you will never memorise it"

3.Feeling de-motivated and cursing your memory even for minor memory lapses.

4.Telling everyone "you have a bad memory" (and sometimes feeling proud for saying that!)

5.etc

Was I exaggerating? You now that I was not. And if you did not fall into any of the above categories, then the only thing I can say about you is:

Lucky You!

But for a majority of people, this is the reality. If you want to improve your memory, you must first have a belief in your memory. How?

follow this simple tip:

Treat your memory power as your good friend.

Will it be OK for you to belittle your good friend by talking
bad about him/her?

Will it be OK for you if someone else talks bad about your
good friend?

Would you say encouraging or discouraging words to your
good friend?

Answer the above questions and you are on your way to a
great start.

More info in my next mail.

Wish you a great memory!
