Chapter 10. Solidify Your Mental Storage
From short-term, to mid-term to long term memory
1. Have a `why we forget` journal. There are 2 reasons for this:
a. Just as in the `100 Day Game`, we have the methods mined to prevent memory leakage. To know how, we must first know what and why. Knowing why we forget, we can evolve our methods, find out how to mitigate the memory loss by designing, testing and refining countermeasures to prevent similar phenomenon from happening again.
b. We detect what we are forgetting, and this will mitigate information leakage.
2. Drill a regime. Do not do try the 1 word a day method. After a few weeks, you won’t remember the first word. As the mind can hold 3 to 7 items, do a list of around 7 information items every 7 days instead.
As stated as part of the system, what you had been doing all these while is in your working memory, it stays or sits in your memory warehouse for while, likely 2 days, but once you keep re-using the same table, the memory gets written over the initial information over and over again,until it blurs them into oblivion. This is what I termed as `mnemonic system overloading`. So how do you deter the loss? This is how we discovered the memory corruption (`why we…
