How to Remember Meeting Times

Filed under: Memory Training — Tags: , , — Leah Simpson @ 6:00 am

Leah SimpsonHas this ever happened to you? You are in someone’s office, or on the phone in your car, and you set up a meeting. By the time you get to your calendar to write it down, you cannot recall the time of the meeting? You have to call the person and look like you either did not really care about your meeting or that you are not very smart. Well, you do care, and you are smart, so how can we stop that from happening?

We will use the Mental File Folder System we teach at our Memory Training Workshop – all you need is a File, an Image and some Glue.

How to Remember Phone Extensions

Leah SimpsonMany of you are graduates of our memory training workshop.

I remember when I first went through the class; I thought it was great! I also found that there were still some seemingly simple things that I still did not recall, for example, people’s phone extensions, meeting times and directions.

So I came up with a few simple systems that have even farther enhanced the usage of memory training in my life, and I thought I’d share them with you!

Let’s start with my first example of people’s phone extensions. You dial the same people in your office all the time, so why do you need to refer to your Read More...

Remembering What You Read

Abby Marks BealeHave you ever read something but don’t know when, or if, you will ever need to actually use it? And if questioned a few weeks later about the subject, is your memory vague, at best?

Myth – I can’t, nor will I, be able to remember everything I read.

Truth – You will remember what you choose to remember!

There are two factors at play: 1) When you are reading, you don’t usually know when you’ll need the information again. 2) You probably do not use any intentional, conscious, or active strategies to keep your memory fresh.

So what can you do to engage your Read More...

How Well Can You Remember a Face Game

Tom WeberI found a cool memory test from the BBC that measures how well you can remember a face. The test is designed to test your recognition and temporal memory and how each area is affected by sleep.

Take the Test

Recognition memory, if you saw or face or not, is unaffected by sleep loss. A person who has not slept for as much as 35 hours can perform as well as someone who is well rested.

Temporal memory is your ability to remember how long ago something happened The area of the brain that controls temporal memory can be affected by prolonged sleep loss and/or ageing. So a healthy 65 year old who sleeps Read More...

Sorry, What’s Your Name Again? 6 Steps to Relieve the Most Common Memory Worry

If you live in fear of forgetting people’s names, sometimes within mere seconds of being introduced to them, you’re not alone. Surveys show that 83% of the population worries about their inability to recall people’s names. Ironically, while most of us hate having our names forgotten or mispronounced, the majority of us claim we just “aren’t good at remembering names” or putting faces together with names when we meet people again.

If you have difficulty recalling names, you know that the two most common scenarios are forgetting the name instantaneously upon being introduced to someone new, and failing to recall the name of someone you’ve met and interacted with in the Read More...
