HOW TO MEMORIZE A SPEECH OR TEXT

Hello, hello! It's time for another random memory tips video.

This week's topic is something that I get asked about on the regular. It's one of the more involved types of things to memorize, so in this video I walk through an example of how I would memorize part of The Declaration of Independence.

Once you get the basic idea on how to do this, you can apply it to learning any speech, memorizing lines, poems, quotes, toasts, whatever your pretty little heart desires my friend!

Finally. Someone on Youtube posts something beyond memorizing phone numbers and grocery lists. This was an excellent video. Thank you.

I came here because I need to memorize the beginning of the Declaration of Independence in two days, and I got exactly what I needed

[MaximoPloSeco]

Memory is so fun with you Nelson. I wouldn't believe the declaration of independence could be so entertaining hahah. Please keep up with the videos, they are both instructive and a pleasure to watch

[herdnivke]

You’re the king of memory education Nelson! Keep up the great work!

[larryjones]

Thoroughly enjoy expanding my memory. At 61 I want to keep as much as possible. Thank you. background music is a bit load for me to catch everything you're saying, but I'm old lol.

But I will exhaust my memory palace in just one paragraph.
My syllabus contains 100s of such paragraphs.
What should I do?

[pravnitt]

Thanks a lot.   I have subscribed your channel. I have started using this technique recently with a lot of success.
One suggestion though, I am not sure if the background music is really required?? It kind of distracts and makes it difficult to concentrate on the important matter at hand.
Cheers...

When I was younger I got obsessed with Pulp Fiction’s Ezekiel 25:17 speech... I memorized the whole thing

[sharnadela]

I really wanted to listen to you but the music was too darn loud and annoying 😩

[BlessedOne-jpcy]

Do you need a separate memory palace for each thing we try to memorize or can you use the same palace each time?

How can I memorize tough terms, definition and paragraph of biology book?

[tanyastewart]

As a music student
how can I improve my memory for solo transcripts or melody

[MelBoonchan]

I’m becoming a monk in a little more than a week, and I need to memorize chants. I hope this video can help me memorize

[calisthenicarts]

To add to my commend below. How does one remembers spoken words as fast as they do at the competitions, abstract images? Cards and numbers seem to be long hours practice using Memory Palace. I'm just totally amaze!!!

[vladimirkuzmenkov]

That is just Cool!
And the declaration itself is an impressive event.

[rohanfernandes]

This sounds really hard! Has anybody had any success with the recommended method?

[vivekkumar-ggnk]
