Since I am getting older and have a few “senior moments”, I thought it could not hurt to see what the author recommends to help improve my memory.įYI, Jerry Lucas was a former NBA player I still remember one of his stories about attending school at Ohio State and having a professor ripping him about not getting any breaks because he was an athlete. Years ago I read a book by Harry Lorayne and Jerry Lucas titled “The Memory Book” that I found to provide some cool “tricks” to remember lists and numbers. So, two rights and a left would be a boxer throwing two right crosses at a red flag. Directions for making a left -picture the communist Soviet Flag. To remember to make a right picture a boxer throwing a right cross. ![]() I also like the idea on how to remember directions. ![]() One tip I like is to break large number in to groups when trying to remember them. The peg word for 4 is the word “rye.” 3 is the word “Ma.” 7 is the word “Cow.” 6 is the word “Shoe” 2 is the word “ Noah” and 1 is the word “tie.” So you might picture an old lady holding a piece of rye bread overhead while riding a cow wearing shoes and has a tie as his tail pulling an old man with a beard. You would have to know the peg words for the numbers 4, 3, 7, 6, 2, and 1. Suppose, you want to remember the number -437621. You could use peg words to remember numbers as well. Of course, you would have to use the traditional rote method to memorize more than 100 peg words to use this method successfully. You might picture a gallon of milk wearing a tie being smacked with a loaf of bread by an old man. Suppose you are going to the store and want to pick up milk and bread. For example, the number 1 is represented by the word “tie.” The second tag word is “Noah” and represents the number 2. He lists 100 peg words which represent numbers. Then picture a girl signing a document in your head. For example, suppose you were planning a vacation to Belize in South America but you are having trouble remembering “Belize.” What you could do is change the word Belize to Bella with lease. He also proposes visualizing hard- to- remember- words into another similar sounding word. The reason you remember what you read when you read is because you are forming pictures in your brain. So, next time a go to my computer that picture will pop in my head and remind me to login to Good Reads. ![]() I could picture that cute little girl in the rocking chair (which shows up when good reads is down) reading a book while rocking on my computer (instead of the rocking chair). For example, suppose I want to remember to login to Good Reads. In theory he is right in practice I am not so sure.įirst, he states to turn what you want to remember into a ridiculous picture in your head. ![]() He makes it sound like his methods are easy. Although I haven’t hit age 50 yet, I thought I could still learn something about memory from his book. In his book he leaves detailed instructions how to remember most tasks. He taught Ann Bancroft his system to memorize lines she needed to know when she was acting. He has been on many talk shows since the early 1970’s, such as Johnny Carson’s Tonight Show. Harry Lorayne is famous for teaching memory techniques. ![]()
