The Most Powerful Way To Remember Everything You Read - Jordan Peterson

The Most Powerful Way To Remember Everything You Read by Jordan Peterson...It's kind of like this technique called Memory castle that people have used for centuries to remember things.

And so what you do is you sit and you you imagine a might be a place that, you know, like a geographic place, a house, and then you can place the things that you remember.

Imagine you walk through the house, you can place the things that you want to remember at different locations in the house.But you have to you have to turn what you're remembering into an image and then you can walk through the house and you can lift things up and find what it is that you're trying to remember.

It's the natural way to learn and remember things. When I was in college, I read the courses and reheased them mentally long before exams, and had no stress passing those exams. In a way, learning is like developing muscles: long-term, consistent effort will bring better results then any high-stress, short term aproach.

"The way to remember is by practicing remembering", it sums it all.

- Listen in class, write down (write, not type) the relevant parts. Relevant parts is the operative word; be selective, don't try to compete with your writing speed against someone who's talking.
Notes should be key words, dates, good quotes and a lot of arrows signs, slashes and brackets.
- End of the day, light read what you wrote down, correct if necessary.
- End of the week, take your notes and write down everything properly (better page setting, spelling, etc)
Write in black, important parts in red. My rule of thumb is more than 10-15% red on a page is too much; it kills how important red should be.
- A week before the exams, fold a A4 in half, write down the key words and dates on it (anything that can trigger your memories). That's your memo card, the goal is to know what's behind the key words. You don't? Take your properly written down notes and write them again. Take good care to stay focused while doing so, no music/distraction in the background. No helping with the laundry either. This is "I'm only doing this once so I'll do it well" time.
- Once I'm done, I would unwind by enjoying a cup of tea in the quiet. Think of it as deep diving, you don't go back to the surface in one shot.
Usually, the content of a semester would hold in one half of a A4, and it would fit my jacket's pocket.
- Two days before the exams, check if you know what you wrote down refers to.

No rote memorization, no cramming. You committed things to memory because you wrote them down twice and because you've been selective you remember why you wrote them down.
The why, when and how matter as much as the what, as it's all about stacking triggers for your memory to work.

is there a way to forget the thumbnail?

Jordan is reminding us that there are no shortcuts or quick fixes, the opposite of what most people today want. Discipline and self-control have been replaced by pleasure and escapism for most. Whether it's mastery of a course, or mastery of self, disciplined work trumps positive affirmations, laws of attraction, emotions, or today's ignorance of cause and effect.

You outdid yourself with this animation! Well done sir. or ma'am.

[delicrux]

i'm going to re post my response here because i wish i knew this sooner.
You can use this in a class setting by record your classes,
then review them in few min increments stopping to put what you remember into your own words after class.
this also has the added benefit of allowing you to actually listen and engage with the teacher in class.

I'll mark this for later, so I'll remember to watch it. 😏

I've been looking for a video like this for years

I wish they could teach each university student within the first week of university. The school system doesn't teach them this. Thanks for sharing.

When you seat down and try to study for years with intent, then you will come up with a similar system to the one Jordan is describing in this video or at least that happened to me.

It's also crucial to realise that if you are not able to summarise the main points of a lesson or chapter in a clear, concise and well organised manner giving few examples on a blank piece of paper without looking up you didn't learn it.

0:32 argument is misspelled unless that's how it's spelled in other countries other than the US, kind of like color and colour

U remember through creating different queues that are linked to the thing you want to remember.

I can testify that the household technique is very effective. Years ago I bought a memory program that showed this technique and it definitely works! Another technique for remembering peoples names or whatever you choose to remember goes like this: I meet someone and want to remember their name. So what I do is scan their person and think about what stands out to me about them. Then once I hear their name I create in my mind a quick and crazy story about that person's name and how they look but I choose an extreme scenario in order to solidify my memory of their name. Example: I meet a bald dude named Harry. In my mind now I'm going to create a wacky scenario in which Harry realizes that he is not Harry at all because he is bald and Harry starts throwing things at me and other people screaming, " I'm not HARRY!" Now I will forever remember that his name is Harry. The more extreme the scenario the better.

This Is brilliant. Like this to remind me to rewatch

Pro Tip: When you have a debate lined up with a real philosopher, don't read anything but a short pamphlet on the topic and then get owned. Love that you mis-spelled argument here, great work guys the brain trust is brimming.

3:40 I was gonna say studying for 10 hours is less effective and studying 20 minutes taking a break, often on throughout the day and Sleeping until you’re well rested or at least hitting REM!

If you rub the book against your head in a circular motion you can immediately learn it's contents.

I found it beneficial to summarize and write down voluminous notes when reading/studying. If I were reading something like Shakespeare I would write down a summary of every scene and character. I was a chemistry major and wrote down every reaction I needed to recall. In organic chemistry I built a lattice of reactions…how one can build from an inorganic compound to organic, etc, When it came to study for a test I would primarily review my notes and rarely have to back to an original source. Takes a great deal of time, but that was the only way it worked for me.
