Chapter 1 : Introduction

Your brain works as a storage area that stores memory.  There are actually two types of memory, short-term and long-term.  In your brain, there are various kinds of memory that are stored.  Since the brain is so enormous, it requires a system where the memory can be encoded and retrieved.

Your brain is required to get information very quickly, regardless of what it is.  It doesn’t matter whether the information is old or new.  There are some times where the brain cannot retrieve the memory that is needed.  Depending on the situation, it could be something that is not a big deal.  On the other hand, it could be something that is massive.

There may have been times where you have gone to a strip mall and you don’t remember where you parked your vehicle.  Or you may have gone to the office products store and didn’t remember what you were supposed to purchase.  Maybe you encountered someone that you knew and forgot their name.  That can be embarrassing.

If you were young when these memory lapses happened, then when you get in your 30s and 40s you may be approaching some senior moments or you may start to forget more.  Within 20 years after that, you may be concerned about Alzheimer’s disease.

However, this condition has started to creep up in people in their 30s.  So it’s not just limited to the senior citizen age group anymore.

It’s a good idea to know how your brain operates in regard to your memory.  Things such as the birth of your first child, your child’s high school graduation—those are things that you will cherish forever.

Those are special moments and it’s difficult to erase the memory.  Even if they did not turn out the way you wanted it to, they were still moments that you will never have again with that child.

Memory is supposed to be about remembering things that have happened, remembering people, places and things.  Memory is not something that you can see.  You just know it’s there inside of your brain.  The important thing is that there is a place where you can store and retrieve information whenever you need to.

If you are looking to improve your memory, this guide provides some tips and tricks that you can use to start the process.  As you utilize them, you can keep information in your memory bank without the embarrassment of forgetfulness.
