Book excerpt: Simple, Practical, “Common Sense” Tips to Remember More & Forget Less You are here because your memory is not as good as you would like. Why might this be? Well, the internet has all the facts we need at our fingertips. Then cameras store our pictures, and smartphones contain the phone numbers of everyone we know. With so much information being recorded for us, the brain has little that it actually needs to remember. This may be good for productivity, but is bad for our memories. The problem is when we apply our memories less and less, our ability to remember can also get worse and worse…. The solution here is simple. We must practice and exercise our memories. Thankfully, in Practical Memory you will discover simple systems and exercises anyone can use to improve their memory. This way, you can see progress immediately, without needing to spend precious time learning difficult techniques (as with many other memory books). Internationally bestselling author I. C. Robledo has examined “ordinary” people with powerful memories. Studying such people is useful because they tend to use simple, practical “common sense” systems that we could all benefit from. Now, those tips are all compiled here into one convenient resource. Inside, you will discover: - How to recall even the most difficult memories (e.g., on the tip of your tongue) - Why intending or planning to remember is a key step to building memories - How to stop forgetting your purse/wallet, phone, camera, etc. - Why too much routine can be bad for your ability to remember - How to remember where you parked the car - Special tips for how to remember new locations when traveling (and stop getting lost) Start building a more powerful memory today with Practical Memory. Practical Memory will help you to remember and recall the total contents of events, more than you thought you could, and get rid of memory loss finally. Your memories will come back to you much more easily, efficiently, and effortlessly than ever before. Mental mastery begins with actually remembering what happens. This doesn’t always come easily. It takes practice to discover and find these memories that are sometimes challenging to grasp and recollect. Now you can finally uncover them with these special, easy-to-use, easy-to-apply, and easy-to-master techniques to build a powerful memory without the usual pains of rote memorization and cue cards. Ultimately, you will boost, enhance, stimulate, exercise, and train your memory practically.

Editorial Reviews "This book isn't designed to make you a memory wizard; it's designed to help with practical issues most of us face regularly: losing your keys, forgetting what you went into a room to do, not remembering names. It does just what it was designed to do."- Lillian Ammann, author of "Dream or Destiny" "This book is a bargain. It will help you appreciate your life more and succeed well beyond your current performance level." - Douglas Winslow Cooper, author of "Ting and I" and former Harvard professor "This book is complete with MANY easy and effective tools to help one improve memory in many areas and I'll be reading it again as I strive to improve even more. Very very helpful."- Regina L Floyd, reader, Amazon.com "The astonishing thing is perhaps that most of the techniques are based and grounded in daily life and can be practiced on a simple daily level, without intellectualizing the matter in any way." - Dr. Peter Fritz Walter, writer, speaker, and consultant "I have lost my glasses and have over 5 pair...maybe 8 pair. Well, I was always trying to find them and this has gone on for decades. I would bellow to the heavens and say...help me find the darn things! Now I walk over to where they are supposed to be and 90% of the time I can find exactly the pair that I want and a backup behind it. You have no idea how good this is for me." - Kay Lewis, senior reader, Amazon.com "The use of these tools to improve memory can and will if used with consistency develop in a person a 'muscular memory' that is 'sharp as a whip'". - Clayton, reader, Amazon.com "The bottom line here is this guide is a keeper. I can see myself revisiting this book again." - Ms. Lu, reader, Amazon.com
