Consecutive forgetfulness is a problem of many people. This is common among physically mature people. However, this is also a problem among some young people. It is normal to forget something sometimes. What isn’t normal is if you forget all the time. To sharpen memory, you must be aware of the power of mind.
It is a known fact that the brain is a mega storage of information more than the greatest computers can store. Every second, the brain tracks and records information: taste, sight, touch, smell, locomotors, and memory. Even the most powerful computer can’t record these experiences all at once.
Man’s brain has a capacity to store up to quadrillion information bits so it is understandable when sometimes we forget short term recollection. This is because sometimes the information is overflowing that it is already spilling out like water out of a full pitcher.
Short term memory is the ability to remember something within a small fraction of time. You may wonder why you can’t remember anymore the meals that you have taken last week. This is because this information is already washed out of your mind and usually can’t be retrieved.
If a meaningful event happens during the process of short term memory, it transitions into long term memory. The power of mind is demonstrated here. A simple meal of omelet and cranberry juice is just breakfast for some but for you, you may remember it as the first meal you had with your present partner. The Eiffel Tower may just be a common tourist sit for some but for many, it is remembered as a backdrop of an arousing romance.
With that theory in notion, a possible way to sharpen memory is born. If a short term memory is transitioned into long term memory with the help of a meaningful event, then it is easy to transition as much short term memory as we can into long term memory if we can just “associate” common things with a special label.
In an exam perhaps, it is easier to memorize the facts if you make them lyrics to a song. In that way, it is easy for you to remember the facts you have memorized. When you need to retrieve the information from your mind, all it takes is to remember the song and the lyrics.
Some students even claim that they can remember facts through memorizing the position of the words in the book. If a certain question has keywords of what they have memorized, then they would visualize that the answer is found at the upper right side of the book page. In that way, they can easily remember.
Mind sharpening drugs are also available in the market. These drugs claim to sharpen memory by increasing brain concentration. A herb that is famous for this claim is the Chinese Ginseng. Oriental people claim to drink tea with ginseng to increase alertness and agility.
The power of mind is not negligible. People who know how to use it and improve its use make the most out of their existence.
