The main booster when you are trying to improve your memory is to remember that you only have to work on what you already have. It is not that your brain is faulty or doesn't work. All you have to do is to follow some strategies for memory improvement. Here are certain tips that will come handy for sure:
Tip #1 Mnemonics This is a fancy way of saying that you use different senses to help you recall information. This can be done through any of the senses, but words and pictures help. Also, when you are making up your associations the more bizarre they are the better they will work. So, when you are studying long equation formulas, lists of information, and the like, come up with some other word or pictures, even phrases that reinforces this knowledge and helps you remember.
Involving more senses into work It has been always seen that when we bring more senses into work, we can memorize better. That is why a visual learner can learn and remember more if he/she brings in the sense of color, rhythm or imagination into work. If you have noticed that you can remember a piece of dull text better when you are reading it loud, you are taking help from both visualizing and audible senses at the same time.
Increasing attention or awareness We can never remember the thing to which we are not paying attention at all. To encode certain information in brain and in the appropriate memory centers, we need to pay attention to what we are learning. 8 seconds of intent focus is required to process a piece of information through hippocampus of brain and then is channelized to proper memory centers. The more we practice on paying attention without getting distracted, the better will be the rate of memory improvement.
Eating proteins is really important as well, so make sure you eat your steak at least once a week. Or you could go to IHop, get yourself the T-bone Steak with a salad on the side and a full cup of cold water. If that would make it easier for you, it could also work but of course homemade food is usually better and healthier.Writing down and creating a healthy diet for yourself should be the first step to a change you are willing to make in your life. It is a big step!So go grab a notebook, a pen/pencil and think about a diet that will go with you, do not forget fruits and veggies EVERYDAY!
