How To Develop A Photographic Memory

By Karen Long


Our lives are, needless to say, the sum of our memories. Our lives would be utterly boring and unadventurous if there was not any storage of the funny, weird and crazy experiences in our lifetimes. Life would basically consist of random events and moments in just that particular time, as if there was nothing that previously existed until that minute. To enhance your memory, there are some strategies that you need to employ. On this note, it is very important to develop a photographic memory.

It is very essential to equip yourself with the very important skill of developing pictured memories. There are many sorts of developing these techniques. One of them is learning to improve your overall memory, by using simple creative means. If you are tired of using cue cards in speeches, then you need to internalize these skills. You will in the end have astonishingly effective and impressive memory capacities.

The skill of establishing the memories in question can be easily learnt or acquired. There are many methods of developing the memories. The first method entails improving the general memory. This method does not exactly entail remembering things just like a photograph, but it is usually extremely effective and reliable regarding reminiscence of everything in general.

Things that can be pictured are the ones that are properly retained by the brains. Based on this reason, therefore, it is very salient to always associate or liken them with pictures in your mind. The wilder or ridiculous they are, the better. Ultimately, you will have an amazingly sterling memory.

Brains think and remember in pictures. For example, if you told somebody to remember someone named baker, and you told somebody else to master that someone was actually a baker, there is an extremely high likelihood that the person you told to remember the person named baker will have forgotten, while the one you told to remember a baker will remember.

The other method is the military technique. This particular system takes at least a month to master, and must also be practiced on daily basis. Missing a day of practice retreats you by a week. This process requires a dark room, and you should be free from any distractions. Additionally, you need to have a ceiling or bright lamp in the room. A windowless bathroom is ideal.

Then, get the material you want to memorize and cover it using the paper, only leaving a paragraph in exposure. Then ensure you focus on the paragraph promptly when you close and open your eyes, by properly adjusting your distance from the material. Consequently, turn off the lights and let the eyes adjust to the darkness. Then, flip the lights on for a spur second and turn off again. You shall have had visual imprints in your eyesight, of the particular material.

By frequently repeating this process, you will have exemplarily memorized all details in the material. It is an utterly powerful exercise, that sees to it that you can swiftly look through a text and you are able to visualize the actual imprint in your brain.
