A small number of people are born with a phenomenal memory, only 5%. Scientists have studied human memory and concluded that it can store information of about one quadrillion bytes. We cannot yet use it in full, even a huge volume for our perception. But memory can be developed and you can easily memorize numbers, dates and other important information using interesting and simple techniques.
What to do when information needs to be memorized instantly, but there is no paper, pen, computer at hand? Important address, phone number, account number. The numbers are known to be the hardest to remember.
There is a direction in psychology - eidetics. Its essence is that any information can be presented and therefore remembered in the form of associative images. Dry information is difficult to remember, vivid images will last for a long time.
So, you need to remember an important date. Imagine each number. A few examples from personal associations.
1 - rope, sword, nail, pencil, 2 - a swan, a clothes hanger with a hook, a squirrel with a fluffy tail, 3 - glasses, seagull, waves, camel with two humps,
4 - door, overturned chair, 5 - a bitten apple with a tail and a leaf, 6 - castle, the head of an elephant with a trunk curved to the right and up, 7 - scythe (for grass), head and neck of a giraffe, poker, 8 - snowman, hourglass, 9 - large garden watering can, whale, 0 - ball, egg, sun.
Each person has an individual imagination and any object can appear in the form of this or that image that you understand. In a certain angle, shape, size. The creative vision and fantasy play of the brain is individual.
So, we turn the numbers into objects, bright, memorable visual images and try to connect them logically with each other. It turns out a kind of story or film.
For example, you need to remember the set of numbers 46133220.
I go to the door (4), see the lock (6), take out the key (1) and open the door. I put on glasses (3), in front of me is the seashore, in the waves (3) a swan (2) is floating, I look up - a seagull (2) is flying and the sun is shining (0). Before the figure, its associative image is presented.
Such a small plot is much easier to remember than a set of numbers written down simply on paper. Additional advantages of this method are the development of figurative thinking, imagination, fantasy, memory, and creativity. A person begins to think faster, has more knowledge in various areas of life, becomes erudite and intellectually developed. Such people have great chances of success in almost all spheres of life - excellent interlocutors, competent specialists, managers, businessmen.
It is the destiny of every intelligent person to be successful. After all, behind the back, or rather in the head, there is a huge baggage in the form of a wide variety of knowledge - dates, facts, formulas, historical, political events, poems, quotes. All this is due to memory, which can and should be developed.
