Published by himachal at 3:49 pm under Health Edit This

Scientists says that their are three things separate people who seem to have a sharp memory from those who struggle with their recollections.

1.They have enhanced ability to remember are usually more interested in the subject matter.

2. They pay more attention to it and concentrate harder.

3.They make a greater effort to memorize and remember the information.

It’s important to use your brain effectively. Applying the following techniques

will help you to improve your memory.

Intention: Get into the habit of planning to remember.

Repetition: Repetition can be effective for remembering

small chunks of information, but it doesn’t work as well for larger amounts.

Chunking: Dividing a large amount of information into smaller

chunks or categories will make it easier to remember.

Association: As strange as it may sound, your brain

finds it easier to remember two items if they are linked

in some way, rather than separate. So, try making associations

in the information you want to remember.

Meaningfulness: It’s much harder to memorize information that

does not make sense to you. Try putting more effort into

understanding ideas before you attempt to store them in your memory.

Visualization: Pictures, shapes and colours are easier to

remember than words or numbers. It is, therefore, very

important to present information in a way that is visually

stimulating.

The next time you attend a meeting or other event and want to remember

what you learn, try applying these six techniques.

You may be surprised at the results.
