Train Your Brain in the Memory Palace
—Anastasia Avvakumova
|
Memorizing many things in a short amount of time can be a challenging task. One excellent trick for this is the memory palace method, which you may know from the TV mystery Sherlock.
Here's how it works: First, choose your palace. This should be a familiar place, like your bedroom. Take note of any objects that stand out. These items will be your "memory pegs." Next, connect each peg with something you want to remember. Let's say you have a list of things to do, the first of which is to call a friend. If your first memory peg is a chair, you might picture your friend in the chair juggling smartphones. The more unusual the image is, the easier it is to remember. Keep going until every item on your list is connected with a peg. When it's time to recall the items, just think of the palace and the pegs.
Next time you need to remember something, give this method a try. After all, if it works for one of the world's greatest detectives, it can work for anyone!

| 訓練記憶力 建構你的「記憶宮殿」 |
在短時間內記住很多事情可能是很有挑戰性的任務。有個做到這件事的超棒訣竅就是「記憶宮殿」記憶法，你可能從電視推理劇《新世紀福爾摩斯》中知道它了。
它是這麼運作的：首先，選擇你的宮殿。這應該是個熟悉的地方，像是你的臥室。留意任何醒目的東西。這些物品會是你的「記憶標柱」。接下來，將每一個記憶標柱連結你想記住的東西。比如說你有一個待辦事項清單，其中第一件事是打給一個朋友。如果你的第一個記憶標柱是一張椅子，你也許可以想像你的朋友坐在椅子上拋接手機。畫面愈不尋常，就愈容易記住。繼續進行到清單上的每個事項都與一個記憶標柱連結。當回想這些事項的時候，只要想起宮殿和記憶標柱即可。
下次你需要記住某件事的時候，就試試這個方法。畢竟，如果它對世界上最偉大的其中一位偵探有用，它對每個人也可能都有用！
