11 SECRETS TO MEMORIZE THINGS QUICKER THAN OTHERS

We learn things throughout our entire lives, but we still don’t know everything because we forget a lot of information. Bright Side will tell you about 11 simple memorizing tips that will help you remember everything and improve your memory.

Have you seen the movie Limitless? The main character found a special pill that allowed him to recall all experience and memorize things quicker whenever he needed to.

Too bad this isn’t true for real life! Unfortunately, we forget a lot of information over the course of our lives.

In this post we’ll share with you some simple memorization tips and a universal formula that will retrieve any information from memory when you need it. Ready? Let’s get started!

First of all, it’s important to remember your brain is like a hard drive. The space is limited! Remember that Sherlock Holmes couldn’t name all the planets of the solar system. He wasn’t stupid, it’s just that he was too smart to have such irrelevant information in his memory.

Instead, Sherlock deliberately erased facts he would never need from his memory. We all do this to some degree. Some of us are less conscious about it than Sherlock, but your brain deletes unneeded information for you regardless. This protects you from overloading with information. That’s why all new data is stored in the short-term memory not the long one. If you don’t repeat it or use it you forget it very quickly.

A German psychologist named Hermann Ebbinghaus researched the memory and its mechanisms. He described the forgetting curve by showing that just one hour after learning something new we forget more than half of the learned information.

One day later we remember only about 30%. You get the idea!

So how to remember everything? There is a memorization technique called spaced repetition to keep some information in your head for a longer time when you need something in your long-term memory. It also helps to find a few good study tips to apply to your habits.

Forced memorization is not very effective in this case because your brain can’t make sense of the information quickly and form strong associations. It all depends on the reason why you are learning something.
