hear it is a great way to ensure that you<br />
remember that bit of information at a<br />
later date. If at all possible, say the name<br />
out loud more than once.<br />
REMEMBER PEOPLE’S NAMES<br />
Do you have problems<br />
remembering peoples’ names? A great<br />
trick for you to use is to connect the<br />
person you’ve just met with someone else<br />
you know with the same or a similar name.<br />
Making a mental connection between a<br />
new friend and a famous person is another<br />
way to remember names. When you link<br />
the new name with familiar knowledge,<br />
it will help you remember the new name<br />
when you encounter your new friend again.<br />
Pay attention when introduced to new<br />
information and it will be easier to<br />
remember. When you meet someone for<br />
the first time, repeat their name, think<br />
of how it is probably spelled and ask for<br />
clarification if needed. For example, ask,<br />
“Is that Christy with an I or a Y?” Make<br />
a habit to say something including their<br />
name and this will help you to remember<br />
it later. Using her name during the<br />
conversation and linking it mentally to<br />
what you talked about will make it easier<br />
to remember her name the next time.<br />
STAY AWAY FROM DISTRACTIONS<br />
If you’re studying a subject<br />
that you really need to remember, you<br />
should eliminate distractions and focus<br />
on nothing but that subject. You have to<br />
get the information from your short-term<br />
memory and into your long-term memory<br />
instead if you wish to recall it at a later<br />
time. The way to ensure that what you<br />
want to remember gets implanted in your<br />
long-term memory is to be free of outside<br />
distractions.<br />
FOLLOW AN OUTLINE<br />
When you are studying, have your<br />
material laid out in an organized, outlined<br />
form. When you have the subjects you<br />
want to master organized in groups, it<br />
is easier to remember the things you<br />
want to learn. The outline does not need<br />
to be especially long or short, but just<br />
enough for you to grasp and recall easily.<br />
There are always steps that can be taken<br />
to improve one’s memory. Use what you<br />
learn from this article in order to increase<br />
your ability. This will also help you recall<br />
things from your memory.<br />
