Do you constantly misplace significant things such as your car keys?
Do
you often forget important dates like birthdays and anniversaries, thereby
negatively affecting your relationships with loved ones?
If so, don抰
panic.
Many people are experiencing memory problems, regardless of age,
sex, or stature. So don抰 think only aging people can experience forgetfulness,
because everyone can encounter memory loss from time to time.
If you
want to have a sharper memory, you will find these conditions
indispensable:
1) You must be able to focus well and be attentive. If you
get distracted easily by things around you, then it will take you longer to
memorize and remember things. Try to find a quiet room and concentrate on what
you are reading, learning, or observing.
2) You must be interested in
what you want to remember or memorize. Let抯 say you love to study Psychology
more than any other subjects in the world.
Do you think you would
remember your lessons in Psychology more than your studies in Math, Literature,
and other subjects?
You bet. By becoming more interested in the subject
matter, you are also giving more attention to it; thereby this increases your
chances of retrieving it from your memory anytime you wish.
3) You must
have the imagination of a child. Be creative. Many memory techniques require the
practitioner to think of the most outrageous and exaggerated images/pictures in
order to remember certain facts or information.
The funnier and more
out-of-this-world the images, the better chances you will retain data in your
mind.
4) You must have a healthy lifestyle. Eat less fat and consume
more foods rich in vitamins and minerals (especially beta-carotene), drink
plenty of water, get enough sleep, engage in cardiovascular exercises, relax and
be happy always.
By doing these, your mind will benefit as much as your
body.
