About this ebook
Discover how to train your mind to easily learn and recall critical information on command, just like the ancient Greeks
From the student studying for a test to a business professional, a powerful memory can be your ticket to success
Imagine that you are a student studying for an exam. Do you think
having the ability to effortlessly memorize dates and names would be an
advantage? Or maybe you’re a professional giving a speech. How much more
impressive would it be to your audience if you gave it without notes?
No matter who you are or what you need to remember (grocery lists?
People’s names?) a robust memory is a huge advantage, a game changer
even. Who wouldn’t want a powerful memory?
However, if you’re like most people your memory today is likely
anything but. You likely forget the names of people you were introduced
to 2 minutes before. Remember a single phone number? Forget about it
(literally). Why is it that despite the advantages that a photographic
memory would bestow so few of us possess it? Why are our modern memory
abilities so flabby?
It wasn’t always this way. In ancient Greece the idea of a trained
and disciplined memory was not the foreign idea it is today. What’s more
it was not only great statesmen and philosophers like Cicero and Plato
who had amazing memories, virtually everyone did. The reason for this is
that before paper was commonly available it you wanted to remember
information of any kind you had to memorize it in some way, there was no
other choice. This is why the ancient Greeks and others all developed
memory techniques that anyone could do with a little practice. With a
little practice yourself, so could you.
Since ancient times we have used almost every technological advance
to essentially out-source our memory. We all use short cuts such as
paper, computers, cell phones etc. to remember information our memories
used to. As a result our brains memory abilities have gotten flabby from
disuse. The truth is that our brains are like muscles. When they are
not used they become flabby and weak, but with a little exercise they
can become muscular and strong again. This is what my book “Improve Your
Memory Today!” does. It shows you how that you too, with a little
practice, can use these ancient memory techniques to have a super
memory. Think of all of the advantages that will be available to you
once you possess a trained and disciplined mind:
• Easily and quickly remember names and dates – great for students!
• Recall facts and figures that will impress your business associates
• Give speeches without notes
• Remember poems, famous quotations or even entire books
• Never suffer from the embarrassment of forgetting a person’s name 5 minutes after having met them!
• Easily remember telephone numbers without the use of your cell phone
• And much more!
None of the techniques that you will earn in “Improve Your Memory
Today!” are difficult, but they will all have a massive positive effect
on your ability to recall critical information. If you are tired of
having a flabby memory get this book and start training your brain
today!
