How to quickly remember information?

In our life, there are memorable events and events that require a good memory from us. Taking an exam, for example. Sometimes it seems that it is impossible to learn a complex outline, but this is not at all the case if you approach the process wisely.

A few simple rules will help speed up and improve the memorization process.

• Rule one - our brain, though masculine, is capricious and touchy, like a lady. If you constantly say that you have a bad head and an unimportant memory, he will definitely "remember" this to you and, indeed, will begin to assimilate less information. If you regularly sing praises to him and talk about his outstanding abilities, he will answer you with mutual respect., and in difficult times, when you need to instantly reproduce here or other information, will not let you down. The thing is that any speech that we say aloud is listened to not only by our real interlocutor, but also by our own ears, and they send what you have set out to your skullcap as a guide to action.

• Second rule - what you teach, it would be nice to understand. The thing is that there are two types of memorizing - voluntary and involuntary. The first requires a "push" before starting to work. That is, you have to make the brain work - to learn Nekrasov's poem or, especially Gorky's prose, involuntarily will hardly work. But remembering how beautiful Jennifer Lopez looked in the last film will work out without effort, and for a long time. This is called an involuntary type of memorization.

• Third rule - choose from a large amount of information the main theses and write them down. Our memory is hard to part with the letters written to her. She carefully stores up to 90% of the epistolary genre creations.

• Rule four - do not try to immediately tear off a large piece and learn a lot at once. It will not be possible to quickly memorize information in large quantities. Or it will work out, but it will not last long in your head. Any mass of information can be broken down into several parts. Shock loads to the brain may not like it... Remember what happened to you when you decided to do 100 squats after a long break? Pain syndrome is also possible with brain overload, it will manifest itself by persistent headaches, irritability, loss of mood, and fatigue.

• The fifth rule - choose a certain time for your games with memory.

You can use kefir as a recharge, it contains a large amount of lecithin, and it improves memory.

• Rule six - all freshly obtained data must be repeated. Ideally, this should be done according to the following schedule: repetition No. 1 - forty minutes after receiving information, then two or three more times a day, the next do it again, or better twice, and then once a week or even once every ten days. So you can not only easily consolidate the knowledge gained, but also supplement it with new ones, as if stringing various additional elements on a thick thread.

We got acquainted with the rules, now you can start solving the problem. But first, let's decide what kind of memory you have better developed.

Now, based on what type you are, choose one or more of the following options for memorization techniques.

Try not just to read the necessary literature, but to do it, paying attention to vivid details... Then, when you need to reproduce the information, the details can be easily found in your memory and immediately "overgrown" with the rest of the necessary words or concepts.

Take notes in the margins as you memorize. Highlight key messages with different marker colors... This will also help in the future to quickly extract the necessary information from the head.

As mentioned earlier, to make it easier to remember, you need to understand what you are doing. Invite a grateful or not very grateful listener to help, the cat Murzik will do too. And try to explain to the interlocutor the essence of what you yourself do not yet quite understand. Very soon you will find the "golden key" and understand what you are talking about.

If you are allergic to animals, and all your friends and acquaintances categorically refuse to understand the theory of probability, then start a conversation about this topic with yourself... Speaking of new information will not only help you understand it better, but also just remember it.

Draw what you teach. There is no need to make copies of masterpieces and create a painting on the theme of the Pythagorean theorem. Depict what you associate this or that information... In the case of Pythagoras, it will probably be pants. Because the Pythagorean pants are equal in all directions.Then, if necessary, information about the dress of the ancient Greek philosopher will emerge faster than the theorem in its classical form.

Sometimes there is not enough time before the exam. It is easy to remember a large amount of information in this case using mnemonics. With its help, by the way, you can not only quickly learn a lesson, but also develop memory.

This technique involves building a chain of information necessary for memorization. That is, one thing should be intertwined with the other according to one or another characteristic, cause consistent associations. One of the conditions is that the links in your imaginary chain must be approximately equal in size.

Using this method, you must conditionally decompose pieces of information into nesting dolls. Moreover, start filling with the largest (important), and finish, respectively, with the smallest (details).

In this case, the information read should be supported. "Fish out" the most important or memorable, figuratively imagine it... When you begin to fish out the postponed in your memory, you first place the supports, and then place on them all the missing bricks of information for an "excellent" assessment.

This variation is similar to Cicero's method. But using it, you need to completely trust your inner voice. Support will also be built by your own memory in the form of images. However, they should be selected not according to a logical principle, but exclusively, as they say, intuitively. That is pictures should draw you your consciousness, or rather, your subconscious.

This option can lead you to create your own alphabet. Each word, concept, phrase must be translated onto paper in the form of a specific image, point, dash, circle, cross, stick. The method suits everyone. Thus, you will place one text in several pictures or signs that only you will understand.

All of the above seems complicated only at first. In fact, after you learn how to put these methods and rules into practice, they will gradually begin to enter your habits and become commonplace. And then you will apply them automatically.

The association method is also good in everyday life.... For example, if you need to remember the name of a person, but it does not want to remain in your head, find his famous namesake there. And then that same Nikolai Vasilyevich, a chemistry teacher, whose name and patronymic you have always spied on the university website, will appear in your imagination in the image of Gogol, how long will he remain on the list of nameless souls!

There are secrets for memorizing long numbers.... Break them into pairs or fours. For example, you need to remember 20081976. We divide this number into two parts and remember how you remember 2008, for example, you graduated from high school, 1976 is the year of birth of your older sister. She came to your prom, didn't she? Now you will hardly forget this number.

Agree, everything is as easy as shelling pears. And, despite the fact that we live in an age of high technologies, and any information can be found on the Internet literally in seconds, you shouldn't rely only on the RAM of your computer or smartphone. It will not replace our own memory, which is able to store not only dry information, but also our incomparable emotions and images that help us a lot. Remember something good from your life right now. Smiled? Will the most powerful memory of your computer give you these emotions?
