How to improve your memory

There is no such thing as "bad memory",and everyone can improve their memory as long as they are not suffering from loss as a medical condition.1.

Stop thinking that you have a "bad memory".Convince yourself that you do have a good memory that will improve.Too many people get stuck here and convince themselves that their memory is bad,that they are just not good with names and numbers just slip out of their minds for some reason.2.

Use association（联想）to remember facts.3.For example,if you have a hard time remembering that JKF was the president involved in the Bay of Pigs Invasion,just picture the handsome president swimming in an ocean surrounded by happy pigs.

Involve several scenes.You can stimulate（刺激）more parts of your brain by using as many senses as possible when memorizing information.4.For example,the process of writing information by hand stimulates your brain and makes it easier to remember the information later.

5.By developing new mental skills,especially complex ones such as learning a new language or learning to play a new musical instrument,and challenging your brain with puzzles and games,you can keep your brain active and improve its physiological（生理学上的）function.

A.Exercise your brain as often as possible.

B.Give yourself some time to form a memory.

C.Erase those thoughts and promise to improve your memory.

D.To improve your memory,there are a number of things you can do.

E.You can create an image in your mind to help you remember something.

F.This concrete image in your mind will help you link the president with this event.

G.When a larger part of your brain is active,your ability to arouse your memory will increase.
