Can’t believe I could recall most of the names in the test by looking at the cues you gave amazing thanks for the tips bless.

[PayneMaximus]

I learned this technique from the book "Unlimited Memory" by Kevin Horsley. It really works, and you can apply it to virtually anything you wish to remember; attach the characteristics to a visual cue, since our brains are very good at remembering images, but not words (which are actually a foreign concept for us).

[MushkyFuchs]

Wow I really didn’t think I’d know any of the names at the end because I wasn’t intentionally trying to remember them during the video. I was mainly concentrating on understanding the technique. But I remembered most of them!! Thanks so much for sharing!!

[ANANDMOHAN-lods]

2:52 I became nervous what she was gonna say🤣

[ShahidAli-vxnl]

So now, I’ll not only have to remember their name but also some feature which will connect me to his name which I usually forget. :-) Why don’t u also run a course on how to connect a feature with one’s name. :-)

[mmeolrrvinaoise]

Wow! I can’t believe I could remember all the names by the end of the video. Now a game changer for me to recall names. Something which I really struggle on a daily basis

[merryarttoonesakamarysusan]

Woe be it to you if they change their hair styles...

[Sabach]

I used to use the hair for coworkers (who I didn't come across often), but there were so many whose hair changed radically from time to time I had to change tactics.

[redpanda]

Great video. I am terrible with remembering names. I did not think that this was going to make that big of a difference, but I remembered all but one of the names at the end. So, yes, it works.

[jessann]

This is amazing!! I remembered every name and when I say I’m the worst at remembering names, I mean it!

[ayushyadav]

when she was going like "her big" and that hand gesture made me wait what are you gonna say

[twes]

I learned this with Mega Memory back in the day. Good stuff, it works.

[AikiGamerTv]

This reminds me Michael Scott technique xD

[ricead]

I was surprised how many I remembered in the test at the end. Thanks VANessa ;-)

[hackbattle]

How do you remember the names of people who look similar and change their hair constantly?

[yogawithbelle]

This is actually so useful! I always forget peoples names so I will try this next time :)

[samrasyeda]

Miss what if we read a name on book and cant stuck it in our memory and these are going to be too much names

[daveh]

Didn't really like it, how many guys with mustaches are named Ash....it was too...pat..I guess. For example, your name is Vanessa, what facial or hair or body feature would lead to Vanessa?

[greggillson]

I got two right! Ash is the name of everyone who has a mustache; Douglass is the name of everyone who wears glasses. Doesn't work with large numbers of people at once. I do best if I see it written. I don't remember faces or names, but recognize everyone's email address. Sorry, Vanessa, after trying to remember all the other names, I forgot yours when you asked. Overload!
