Steps to - Memorize things


1.Understand why you remember the issue... 
It really is mostly important because you aren't finished with it, or that you want to do something,  repair it or even forget it (therein lies the problem). These actually enforce the need to remember.

2.Simplify It by breaking it down...
Break whatever you're trying to memorize down into smaller categories or groups. This is why phone numbers are broken up by dashes. Those dashes help separate the number into easily recognizable groups for the brain.

3.Relax...
If you are cramming a lot of information into your brain in a short space of time, try and get relaxed first. Meditate or if you are not into that then just listen to the breath entering and leaving your body. You need to be as relaxed as you can whilst taking information in as a disorganized mind will lead to disorganized memories.

4.Concentrate...
If you only have a limited amount of time in which to remember these things then you must concentrate as much as possible on whatever the task is that you are now doing. If you do not concentrate, your memories will be fuzzy.


5.Relate the thing...
If you're going to successfully learn how to memorize things quickly, this is a big one. Your brain will much more likely remember something if it reminds you of a long term memory that you've never forgotten. Think about what you're trying to remember and think about the things it reminds you of. This goes a long way in memorizing things quickly.

6.Make Logical explanation...
Probably the best way to remember things is to make a logical explanation to what you are learning. Making it a habit to remember things may help a lot for some people.

 7.Write on...
Write a note on small pieces of the work when memorizing a speech, essay, or other work of prose. Do this by breaking off in sensible places, such as the end of a paragraph, idea, or quote. Affix the notes to a highly visible place in your bedroom or living room where you look often.

8.Gaze little longer...
Gaze little longer on things you need to remember. This may look silly but it works.

9.Good sleep... 
Sleep is very much necessary to memorize things. Sleep disorders leave you tired and makes you unable and uncomfortable to concentrate during the day.

Like every other part of your body, your brain needs to be stretched, flexed, and otherwise used in order to keep it in great working condition. This can be done with a lot of fun by playing brain games like Sudoku and crosswords.
