I used one of the memory techniques to memorise all the two letter words in Scrabble (107). It took a couple of hours but it is amazing when you use it. Sadly one friend I played with got upset and said I was cheating. It's called learning, and is not cheating. I also used it on a short health and safety exam and was the first to finish and the only student to get 100%. It is a wonderful thing. Thanks for the video.
Because I was so fascinated by Sherlock's mindpalace in BBC's Sherlock I started creating one myself and now I lay/ sit down every evening questioning myself "What new information did you learn today?" because specaily for beginners I think it can be quite hard to add stuff to your mindpalace when you're surrounded by people and noises (For example in school) basically if I know I won't be able to remember something all day I just quickly write it down to look at it later. I also startet with deduction and it both fascinates my so much, go try it out yourself.😁(In the beginning it was hard for me and I sometimes even got little headaches but you'll get better at it) I hope I could help you. Have a wonderful day everyone.
The Memory Palace technique utilizes the fact that we are extremely good at remembering places we know. I have used this technique for quiet some time now and can recommend it to everyone. At first it takes some practice but it totally pays off.😄
I used this for Spanish vocabulary and it worked like a charm, I would mentally walk through a room and place the letters to a new word on furniture, the key was to have the English word first bouncing or jumping around, then the letters of the word in Spanish each a different size and doing something crazy. I always got 100% on the tests.
I made a mind palace in April during the quarantine but I never used it because I thought I needed more practice. But yesterday I had a huge exam and there were a lot of list things that I couldnt remember so I decided to use it for one of the lists. And it actually worked really well!!! I was so excited and now I want to use it more
Your answer at the end about reusing mind palace is not entirely accurate and is definitely incomplete You could use a mind palace for multiple things in the same day as long as the data is not the same category For example You memorize a deck of cards , you could then use the same locations to memorize the presidents directly after with no confusion But if it’s the same type of data you should switch to a different mind palace But....what do I know? :)
I am spooked man I have just finished sherlock holmes yesterday
Thanks for the fun and informative video about memory palaces. I have hundreds that I use for different purposes. I've used houses, apartments, and dorms I've lived in, schools, parks, neighborhoods, workplaces, and even movies and TV episodes as memory palaces. I used them to memorize Pi to about 5,600 places, and have used them in the Long-Term Memory events of the USA Memory Championship, which I've competed in 4 times, finishing as high as 3rd place in this year's competition.
Oh man, this is gonna help me SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH, I can't wait edit: Absolutely confirmed, this helped me tremendously, I was able to recall passages I wrote, word for word, and even out of order I hit every note of 10 passages. Thank you so much!!!!!
DECIDE ON THE MAP LOCATION: Relate the mind palace with some familiar places. ESTABLISH THE PERMANENT ITEMS: Assign four to five items at the chosen place. DETERMINE YOUR ROUTINE: Number the items and recall them in a pattern. ADD INFORMATION: Add visual details in association with the items. CREATE MORE THAN ONE: Create multiple palaces for different purposes. My crazy passion is to share summaries like started doing it on my channel with PDF summaries ✌ Lets try memory palace technique to see if it really works 🤔
I’m using the dark souls 3 maps. We all know how we all kept dying having to walk that same route over and over
For everyone who wants to learn more about the memory palace and using your memory i recommand you read tony buzan books , "control your memory" "and use your memory" and also joshua foer's book "moonwalking with einstein"
My older (and extremely studious and intelligent) brother told me this secret on his 18th birthday– about the mind palace, so I decided to learn how to use the technique from today onwards to help me with my studies :] Wish me luck, fingers crossed this'll work 🤞
Everyone is talking about Sherlock, but everyone forgets Patrick Jane from the mentalist :(
That scene when Watson is explaining to the lady who asked about what the Mind Palace is, it really got me. Watson: it’s like a house of some sort, where he puts the objects he’s trying to remember. Lady: Why does he call it a palace?
What a great suggestion about using video game maps! My students will love this.
Now that I know about this, my teacher taught us this kind of visual memorization called method of loci before for us to improve our memorization. I didnt listen well but now am regreting bypassing such wonderful memorization technique.
Unfortunately if I was at that party I'd 100% forget my jacket and then grab my keys to wander around in the dark listening for the beep of the car bc I'd forgotten where I parked so hM LOL
Instead of furniture, I use corners and centers. Front-left floor level, go around clockwise, center of floor, front left ceiling level, go around clockwise, center of ceiling. I can improvise an ordered list of 10 places on-the fly anywhere. Outdoors I use corners of buildings going around in a specific order, followed by roofs. A pair of familiar buildings gives me a list of 10.
