Two-time USA Memory Champion, memory training expert, and memory keynote Ron White shares his thoughts on how to improve your memory. Wouldn’t it be great if you wake up one morning and find you have a photographic memory? You can recall where you put everything, every word your boss told you, and never forgot your spouse’s birthday again. Who wouldn’t!! Unfortunately few people can do that, so the next best thing to do is to find memory techniques that will get you as close to genius as possible.

My Second Memory Tournament

2016-10-22T09:06:09+00:00

With the experience of 2008 behind me I was not focused on becoming the national memory champion. It is no secret that I am proud to be an American and to represent my country in the national tournament for my sport was an enticing idea. My strategy sessions for the 2009 tournament began about two months after the 2008 tournament in May of 2008. My first order of business was to email David Thomas (the former Guinness Record Holder for memorizing pi to 20,000). When I had met David a few months prior at the 2008 USA Memory Championship he said he was willing and ready to share his 'unbeatable' strategy for the tournament with anyone who would listen but no one had ever taken him up on the offer. I certainly wasn't above asking for help and I did just that by emailing David.

60 Minutes Segment on Memory

2016-10-22T09:06:09+00:00

Scientists have long been interested in understanding what we remember about our past and why we remember it. But figuring out a way to study autobiographical memory presents a problem. Many other kinds of memory are tested in the laboratory using experiments planned out in painstaking detail. That doesn't work so well for autobiographical "episodic" memories, which are made over time and everywhere along the way.

The Spanish Help for Your Child You Won’t Find at School

2016-10-22T09:06:06+00:00

Your child wouldn’t need Spanish help if they used the right approach to learning a language. The problem is schools don’t usually include comics and mnemonics in their teaching methods. Maybe it’s time they did. “What’s the most important skill for a beginning Spanish student?” If you ask Jim Sarris, Spanish teacher for 15 years, he’ll say, “The ability to memorize.”

Memorize 400 Digits of Pi

2016-10-22T09:06:05+00:00

This is a fascinating article for me. It does require background knowledge of what in the memory work is referred to as 'The Major System' in regards to memorizing numbers, however fortunately this site has links to explain that. If you would like to have a really cool ability to say Pi to 400 digits I do think this article on memory training and Pi is worth the read and the effort...

Trust your memory! One of the best tips I received from World Memory Champion Ben Pridmore was to trust my memory. I would tell him that I could memorize a deck of cards in about 2 minutes and I wanted to get faster. His advice to me was to trust my memory more. He said, ‘Go faster and just trust that your memory will remember it.’ That was precious advice to me as I became the national memory champion.
