Our personal diary
We do not remember some days days but we will remember a moments in our life. Memory is like a diary of one person. Memory is the way of holding things what you love most.
“The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche (German philosopher)
Forgetting things are not good but it is good to have forget bad memories .But to develop gratitude ,forgetting doesn't help at all. Now I want to give 3 reasons why we are forgetting what we learned ,what have done and where we did and all.
perception
When you think it is important in your life ,then it will store in long term memory. Forgetting is not an accident at all the time. But forgetting are depends on your perception or how much you are giving value to those information .That is the reason some time wife is getting angry with the husband when he forget her birthday(just kidding).But really when you give value to one information ,then we don't forget those info..For example ,Students remember When teacher says , It is important question for final exam.
Practice
Because of our practise, the information move from temporary memory to permanent memory.For example when you read a lesson one time alone is not enough to remember for long period but when you read it again n again, it stay long period in your memory.Less practice make you to forget.
Confusing
Onetime my daughter 's teacher taught her fraction addition in one way.After some days,I taught her the same in other way .So she got confuse and she struggled to remember those.Yes,my way distorted her memory of fraction.This kind of forgetting is more applicable to kids.
Schema
I asked my daughter to listen following words,
spoon,cup,vessel,oven,light,pan,knife,mixer.
Then I asked her, Did I say light ;she said, No.Because her mind got set all are kitchen things..When we forget something because of nature of information that means if is very new ,we might forget and our brain need some more time to find relevant data in its memory to cope up with new info.
Memory enhancing strategies
Rehearsal
As I mentioned above, practice practice and practice makes success to keep remember.For example learning table .
Organizing
Organize the information to keep in memory. You can organize information in your well known pattern of alphabetical order,counting order and so on.
Mnemonic device.
It is simply tricks. For example we will use our hands to remember days of the month.
Expressive
I used this method more to teach my daughter.Give action to what you are studying. For example,bird mean I will show her flying action.When we do action ,it improves to store in long term memory.
Read louder technique helped a lot when I was studying elementary to junior high school.Reading louder is the one kind of expressive technique.
In my perception,
Memory has the power to change a moment in to days and days in to moment according to their own perception.
All the best to have a nice memories!
