For years and years folks have been trying to figure out how to tap into the magic of the
hidden brain. Youve probably heard before that we only use like 10% of our brain. Maybe
youve never been asked this particular question this way, so please listen closely. What would
you do if you could tap into say10% more? What about 20% or 30% or even more?
Though its hard to even imagine the full capabilities of what the human brain really are, its
obvious that we arent even scratching the potential surface. Well, thats what scientist, whiz
kids, and scholars have been researching and hypothesizing and even experimenting on for
thousands of years. For those who are knowledgeable and scholarly becoming more so is not
only a challenge but a demand of intellect.

I could really go on and on with the list of options available to help with memory. There are
folks that have tried some pretty weird things, but all in all it comes down to see what works
best for you. The twelve I have listed and are soon to talk about are the top ones out there for
the majority of folks though.
Now lets get started and together we can talk about what these mean and how they can
benefit you.
Focus
I am truly not trying to be funny here either. One of the problems with memory is that all too
often we are all too busy to begin committing to memory in the first place. Our lives have
become so busy with appointments, meetings, work to do, errands to run, ballgames, etc. that
our poor brains are overloaded and overworked.
We are constantly barraged with information and to do lists. We seldom to never stop long
enough to achieve focus for more than just a minute or two at a time.
If you really want to achieve good memory retention, you first have to focus. This means shut
off the iPod, turn down the TV and turn off the radio and games. Come back into clarity and
focus with yourself. This make take more than one attempt, but once youve done so, you will
know why you need to do it more often.

whatever it is then relax and go do something. Come back to the source and concentrate on
your focus once again. As you do this you will begin to meld your memory to hold onto the

and retain
Teach
25
Though a lot of people dont like to hear
it because they are afraid to talk to or in
2
front of others, talking to others about
what you are trying to remember is the
best way to actually commit it to
memory. For instance, lets say you want
to remember the battles in the
Revolutionary War. If you spend time
teaching this information to other
students, you will reap the rewards. It
will get much easier for you to do the
more you do it. So.its time to get
started.
Rest/Repetition

There may be many college students that would argue with us here, but this is scientifically
proven for good memory retention. What this means is regular study sessions in small
increments is much more effective that cramming the night before. Though cram sessions
may help you to make the mark in the short term, you will be lucky to retain any of that
crammed information in the long term. Thus memory retention was not achieved through
cramming.
Be Organized

If you keep your notes, highlighting, post-it notes, desk, drawers, closets or whatever
organized, you will be less frantic about anything in your life. You will be able to retain
studied material because it wont be making you crazy while you are studying. You will
remember where things are and be able to find them. You will be amazed at what simple
organization will do.
There are certain things you can eat and drink to help improve your memory retention. Some
folks may try to tell you all about some weird concoctions, but I am not not going to go there. I
am just going to tell you about stuff like Omega 3s and fatty fish like mackerel. These are very
good for your brain and your memory. There are surely other foods, but if you could just
include these foods in your diet it would help.

What about drink? Well, water, water, water. Oh yeah, did I say water. This is the drink of

choice for memory and for life. You can have some of that other stuff, but make sure your
25 Practice Mnemonics
2You might not even know what these are, but soon you will. First of all a mnemonic is
something like every good boy does fine. This is something I remember from childhood still.
I learned this when learning to read music. EGBDF are the sequence of notes of the treble clef.
You can make up crazy stuff and it doesnt matter.as long as you can remember what a
sentence or a combination of words or letters stands for. Its a memory trick.

When you are learning new information, sometimes it helps to add it to old information. That
said, what I mean isif you happen to know something like knitting and you want to learn
how to crochet. You can create tags in your memories by associating some of the information.

Though the processes are different, some of the information will be similar. Like following a
pattern, reading the sequence, changing colors, etc.
W A Y L F ?
By following this type of process you dont have to hold so tight to a new memory segment
because you are attaching it to an old. If someone has learned how to add, then subtraction
and/or multiplication can be attached in the memory as similar processes. This facilitates ease
25of learning and memory retention.

Visualize / Visual Management
Some people will tell you that visualization is hogwash. Those who have truly used it will tell
you its awesome. Visualizing is about seeing yourself passing the test, remembering where
something is, etc. Its about seeing the outcome that you want to occur. This has been proven
again and again to lead to successful outcomes.
Visual management is similar to simply visualizing, but its altered slightly by bringing the
desire into the tangible world. Suppose you want to pass a major test. You can write math test
or whatever on a piece of paper in big letters and tack or tape it up somewhere. It can be the
fridge, the wall or whatever. Put a big A on that paper to remind yourself of the grade you will
get on your paper.

at least your position. You can invite a new team member to a study group, go out to a coffee
house for a session, etc. Just dont allow boredom to become a factor and a reason for
25
avoiding your studies, chores, etc.
2
It is true that if you are bored, your brain will become kind of lackadaisical. Just dont allow
your brain to get bored. Keep it new and fresh and go get a cup of coffee!
Move
Relax
Last but certainly not least you need to take a chill. Calm down and take it easy. Enjoy your
friends, fun and family. Let go of what you are trying to remember. Quit trying to force it.
Laugh and love and enjoy your life. Take time for this and come back to what you are trying to
