Memory Masterclass, Upgrade your memory in less than 90 minutes.
Let me ask you this question: how is your memory? Very good, good, not so good or not good at all? Do you know anybody who claims that they’re bad with names or numbers or dates?
Well, I’m one of these people. For a very long time, I thought I was born this way, and never tried to make an effort to get better at memorizing. Memory champions are people with special abilities. When I dug deeper, I realized that I formed a negative belief toward memory. Rote memory is bad. In primary school, I was taught I shouldn’t memorize things, I need to understand them. Memory is not as important as understanding. This belief was imprinted in my subconscious mind.
With technology development, I can easily get away from the need of memorizing anything:
· Use auto-correction when writing
· Use my phone to store all the important dates and contacts
· Use satnav when driving
· Save passwords with my computers or click the ‘forget my password button to reset my password
· Use google for any information
And if I forget someone’s name, just say ‘I’m bad with names…’ This excuse seems socially acceptable.
I totally gave away my superpower to retain any information in my brain to the electronic devices. Then, I heard about a new term: digital dementia, coined by neuroscientist Manfred Spitzer. This caught my attention.
Digital dementia is the deterioration of brain function as a result of the overuse of digital technology, such as computers, smartphones and Internet use in general. Memory problems, shortened attention spans and emotional flattening are the common symptoms of this excess use of technology.
On the other hand, every now and then, I encounter someone who is full of energy, super sharp, laser-focused and can remember anything, from a poem to date or random numbers.
I want to be one of these people.
· I want to be able to recite my husband’s favorite poem to him once a while.
· I want to be able to tell my kids in school the capital city of every country, well, maybe most countries.
· I want to be able to remember my credit card number for online payment, instead of getting up to get my purse and pulling out my card, completing the transaction, then putting my card back, and washing my hands. That is a lot of unnecessary work.
· I want to be able to drive anywhere in my city without depending on the sat nav.
· And I want to be able to recall the detailed content in a report I’ve written in a work meeting, without saying I need to check it later.
But how? How can do all these nice things?
So, I took action. I made a list of things I want to memorize and set aside some time each day to learn something on the list by heart. But, nothing stuck in my memory easily, and I still could not recite ‘the road not taken, after more than 100 times repetitions.
There must be a better, more effective way.
So, I started my search, with google. Yes, technologies are important to our day-to-day life, we just need to be smart about how to use them.
I was not the only one who wants to get better at using my brain, and there are experts and professionals who have done the research, developed training and helped people improve their brain function, maximize their memory and boost their performance in every aspect of their life.
I’m still in my learning journey and thoroughly enjoying it.
There are many mnemonic devices. However, they can get complicated quickly. Also, in most cases, they’re used in memory completions, to recall random numbers, words, and cards, which does not relate to our daily life. I think this is the main reason why people are not keen to learn about them, even we all want to upgrade our memory.
I created this course to share with you the basics and fundamentals of these memory improvement techniques. They are simple but so powerful. I’ll show you how to use them in your daily life and work. You can start using them to upgrade your memory and learning immediately.
To a certain extent, your brain is like a muscle, if you use it, it gets better and stronger, and if you don’t use it, it’ll shrink and lose its strength.
You’ll be amazed at how much information you’ve memorized after each 10-minute lesson. Also, when you need to memorize something in the future, you’ll have a full suite of techniques and tools to use, instead of repeating it 100 times and wishing somehow it’ll stick in your memory.
Join me in this course and upgrade your memory in less than 90 minutes.
