System to Power Memory
There is a System to Power Memory
How many times have you heard a song playing on the radio and immediately the memory of a place or event comes to your mind? Or have you ever been listening to someone talk and they will say something that triggers a memory from your past as suddenly becomes as clear as if you had experienced yesterday?
You probably didn�t even know it was happening at the time but you experienced the secret to unleashing your memory.
Each of our experiences and personal events are stored in our memory. Yes, everything we have read, seen or done has been recorded in the memory banks of our mind.
Question: If that�s the case why don�t we remember more than we do?
Answer: Because we haven�t learned how to �systematically� store and recall these events from our memory.
What does it mean to �systematically� store and recall events? The dictionary defines the word �systematic� to mean:
1. Carried on using step-by-step procedures.
2. Purposefully regular; methodical.
3. Marked by or adhering to method or system
Or in other words�
Using a step-by-step system to store our memories so that they can be recalled at any time.
I will go one step further and tell you that our problem is not the storing of information but the recalling of information. Have you ever seen someone you knew really well several years ago but couldn�t remember his name?
At one point in time you knew their names instantly without thinking but after several years you now have difficulty recalling it. Why? You can�t recall it because you didn�t use a system for moving that name from short-term memory into long-term memory.
All we need to do is train our minds to use the Power Memory System on a consistent basis so that it becomes second nature to us.
The majority of people believe that they have an average or below average memory. The truth is that all of us have a Power Memory, but most people just don�t know how to use it.
