Five Tools for Improving Your Memory We normally let our memory do its job without thinking much about it. But if we want to boost the effectiveness of our memory – if we're not satisfied with how well it's working, or if we just want it to work better – there are five tools we should prepare and keep ready to use on memory jobs:
Tool #1: Paying Attention The first tool is paying attention – think of it as a flashlight that focuses on what you want to remember. The biggest problem in general that people have with their memory is not paying attention. Attention is the gateway to your memory. Without it, a memory doesn't get into your head, and what doesn't get in can't be saved. Besides being a gatekeeper, attention also fixes things in your memory. It burns things into your memory and helps move information from temporary storage to permanent storage. Without sufficient attention, you may remember something for a moment, but then it evaporates.
One big barrier to paying proper attention is multitasking. When you're multitasking, you may feel like you're paying attention to many things at the same time, but you're really not. You're still just doing just one thing at a time – you're just juggling them quickly. And you're doing any single thing much less well than you think, because the mental juggling takes effort away from paying attention and remembering. If you have a set of things you really need to do and remember, do them one at a time. It will be far more efficient in the long run.
