The Basic Laws Of Memory

Nature is one of the never-ending mixture and replication of a very few laws. There are three basic laws of memory that are as rock under the feet of the serious student in his pursuit for a reliable memory. These laws are at once the foundation of any sensible and sound memory system. Knowing these laws the serious student, for the right process cannot go wrong. Those who have been doubtful about the importance of memory systems, as well as those who have imaginary memory education to be a external genus of mental freak work would do well to study these laws carefully. These three basic laws of memory are Concentration, Repetition and Association.

The Laws of Concentration

Civilized and intellectual man should be a master of concentration. Idiots and imbeciles are almost devoid of concentration awareness. One of the main differences between the mind of a human and a monkey is that a monkey has no concentration as it changes its mind constantly. The royal sign of a brain power is concentration. By organizing your mind you will be able to bring it under your control and make it work as you like. The person who knows to organize his mind will get the whole nature under his control. Through concentration, you can open the layers of the gross mind and penetrate deeply into higher regions of the mind in order to get deeper knowledge.

The Laws of Repetition

Repetition is to repeat or to reappear. Repetition can create awareness. Repetition is the main symbolic policy for producing clarity, emphasis, amplification or emotional efforts. Within the history of symbolic terms have been developed to name both specific and general sorts of repetition. Frequency and recency are the two main features in the use of repetition. Repetition must come sooner just within half a day. It is important to remember that repetition is the secret of permanency. One of the main aspects of repetition is to create memory consciousness permanent. In this way one can develop the negatives of the memory.

Laws of Association

This law does play an important role in everyone's life as it helps everyone to associate with each other. Every person in this world is unique and when they are been introduced to you it is important to pay attention to the details of the persons face. Take a good look at the persons face and try to find something unusual about his face which will help you associate this characteristic with the person's name. Paying special attention to that uniqueness, try to create an image of that person in your mind. By doing so, you will recall the required information when you need it later. Instead, you can associate the person's name with other parts of the body. This is what attracts your attention from that person's body which should be associated and not necessarily a face detail.

Conclusion

Concentration, Repetition and Association are the forms of Triumvirate of the Kingdom of Memory. Every person should utilize these powerful laws in his daily battle for memory supremacy. A wise man is he who works with the laws but not against or without the laws.
