HOW TO DEVELOP A SUPER POWER MEMORY
How keen is your observation?
Which light is on top of the traffic light? Is it red or green?. your first thought ,probably is that this is an easy to answer. However, put yourself in this position – you are on one of the current quiz shows that pays a lot of money for correct answers. you must answer this question correctly to win the top prize. Now then, which light is on top, the red or the green?
If you have been able to picture yourself in the above position, you are probably hesitating now, because you’re not really sure which light is on top, are you? If you are sure, then your one of the minority who has observed what most people only see. There is a world of differences between seeing and observing; proven, of course, by the fact that most of the people to whom I put the above question ,either give the wrong or not sure. This, even though they see the traffic light countless times every day1!
By the way, red is always on top of the traffic light, green is always on the bottom.
Habit is a memory
There is no such thing as a poor memory (or) a bad memory. There are only trained or untrained memories. I believe that the more you remember, the more you can remember.
Test your memory
Some university students were taking an examination just prior to their Christmas vacation.
This is an exam they hadn’t looked forward to, since they knew it would be a difficult one.
It was!
One student handed in his paper with this remark on it: ‘God only knows the answer to
these questions. Merry Christmas!’
The professor marked the papers and returned them to the students. One had a
message on it: ‘God gets an A (grade),you gets an F (fail), Happy new year.
Test 1
Read this list of fifteen objects just once – you can take about two minutes to do so. Then try to write them without looking, of course, in exactly the same order in which they appear here. When scoring yourself ,remember that if you leave out a word, that will make the remaining words incorrect, for they will be out of sequence. After learning link method you can able to tell without missing sequence.
Book, ashtray, cow, coat, match, razor, apple, purse, Venetian blind, frying pan, clock, eyeglasses, door knob, worm,
Paper.
Ø Link method for test 1
I want to show you now that you can start immediately to remember as u never remembered before. I don’t believe that any one with an untrained memory can possibly remember twenty unassociated items, in sequence, after hearing or seeing them only once. Even though you don’t believe it either, you will accomplish just that if you read and study this information below
Before going in to actual memorize, I must explain that your trained memory will be based almost entirely on mental pictures or images. These mental pictures will be easily recalled if they are made as ridiculous as you can possibly make them. Here are the twenty items that you will be able to memorize in sequence in a surprisingly shot time.
Carpet, paper, bottle, bed, fish, chair, window, telephone, cigarette, nail, typewriter, shoe, microphone ,pen, television set, plate, doughnut, car, coffee pot, and brick.
A famous man once said that method is the mother of memory. So, I’ll teach you now what I call link method of memory. I’ve told you that your trained memory will consist mostly of ridiculous mental images, so let’s make ridiculous mental images of the above twenty items! Don’t be alarmed! It is child’s play; as a matter of fact it is almost like a game.
The first thing you have to do is to get a picture of the first item, ‘carpet’, in your mind. You all know what a carpet is – so just ‘see’ it in your mind eye. Don’t just see the word ‘carpet’, but actually, for a second, see either any carpet, or a carpet that is in your own home. I have already told that in order remember anything, it must be associated in someway to something you already know or remember.
Now then, here is your first and most important step towards your trained memory. You must now associated or link carpet to or with paper. The association must be as ridiculous as possible. For example you might the picture the carpet in your home made out of paper. see your self walking on it. You can picture your self writing something on a carpet instead of a paper.
Now paper to bottle, For example u think like this the bottle is made up of paper
We have already linked carpet to paper, and then paper to bottle. We now come to the next item which is ‘bed’, you must made an ridiculous association between bottle and bed. A bottle lying on a bed or anything like that. You must have to remember that you see in mind once what you associated for a second. If you completed one word don’t go back to that until u finish all your association of the words.
Ø Now associate bed with fish like fish is sleeping on bed some thing like that .
Ø Next fish and chair like fish is sitting on a chair something like that.
Ø Next chair and window like your throwing chairs through a closed window. See picture in your mind going to next one.
Ø Now window and telephone think like your answering the phone by see window.
Ø Now telephone and cigarette – your smoking a telephone instead of a cigarette think and picture in your mind once.
Ø Next cigarette and nail think like your hammering a lit cigarette in to the wall instead of a nail.
Ø Now nail and typewriter think like all keys in your typewriter are nails and they are pricking your fingertips as you type
Ø Now typewriter and shoe –see yourself wearing typewriter instead of a shoe.
Ø Now shoe and microphone –your wearing microphone instead of a shoe.
Ø Now microphone and pen – you’re writing with a microphone instead of a pen
Ø Now pen and television – you can see a millions of pens gushing out of the television screen
Ø Now television set and plate – picture your television screen as one of your kitchen plate
Ø Now plate and doughnut – picture yourself being served dinner on a gigantic doughnut instead of plate
Ø Now Dough nut and car – you can see a large doughnut driving a car
Ø Car and coffee pot – a large coffee pot is driving a car
Ø Coffee pot and brick – see yourself pouring steaming coffee from a brick instead of a coffee pot
That’s it ! now you can easily remember the twenty items without missing sequences. First it will take more time to think but, practice makes man’s perfect. Now you try to remember what you learned. You can find an difference.
This will be continued the next memory trick was remember number’s with words suppose 1) carpet 50)rock…….. like that up to 100)ball, and more you can able to remember the number with word.coming soon..
