Locate Your Memories
This will be especially useful if you find it hard, in your first attempts, to create funny mental pictures that are the basis of the system which I described earlier in the book.
You can start with this system first. It’s ultra-simple! It may give you more confidence and enliven your imagination, so that making the pictures for your Picture Pegs and Picture Links for the other Systems becomes much easier in a fairly short time.
The easiest things for us to make mental pictures of are those items, people and places which we see every day. We can, like the speech makers in ancient Rome, use the rooms and fittings of our own home, or any other building with which we are very familiar, to fix a list in our minds.
Write up your list, and then decide where you will put the first item from your list. You could put it on the front door and fix the other items from your list to each room, or even items in a room, as you move your mental focus steadily through your home.
Make a mental picture with that first item on your door. Simplify and then distort each item, as I’ve explained with the other systems, so that you mental pictures fix more strongly in your mind.
Move through your home in a single direction, just like you would if you were walking through it, as far as possible. That will make the switching from one picture to the next as smooth as possible when you start to recall the items.
The places and fixtures which you attach the items to can be whatever you like, but every one should be distinctly different from the others. If your main bedroom wall is very similar to the walls in your family room, then use only one wall with just one item so that your images are not likely to be mixed up. Instead of your bedroom wall, you might use the curtains or blinds in there as one of your ‘hooks’.
You’re not limited to using just your home or even a building, but you need to be very familiar with the location; street, building or whatever, which you use as the foundation for your mental tour.
Tell a Story
For completeness, I will mention this method though I think it is very limited. Children and adults who have great visual imaginations might find it so useful that they amaze us all.
Start by writing down your list. Then, create a story and bring each item you’ve listed into the story in sequence. The story, of course, does not need to be realistic – the crazier it is, the more firmly your brain will retain it.
The flow of the story actually limits the usefulness of the method. It just goes one-way. You have to travel mentally through the story from the beginning to the item you want. With your Picture links, you can start at either end, and each item which you pick will help you to remember the item before or after it.
Power Pegs
The peg method of retaining and recalling important information has also had hundreds of years of development. There are a few variations and some of them may appeal to you more than others.
It is worth the small extra effort required over the Link and Location systems, because it lets you pull any item from any of the Pegs in your system more quickly than with the other systems.
Link systems store the information in a particular order, so you have to mentally skip through the sequence to find the particular item which you want.
The Pegs and the items you ‘tie’ to them can be recalled, in or out of sequence, much quicker and more easily.
For this system, you memorize a basic list of items which you retain to use as “pegs” where you attach the items from other, usually more short-lived lists which you want to remember.
Word Pegs
The Word Peg system has you memorize just 10 objects which will be the pegs you’ll put other items on so that you remember them in sequence. You can change part, or all, of my list to items which you are more comfortable with.
1. Sun 2. Shoe 3. Tea 4. Door 5. Hive 6. Sticks 7. Raven (blackbird) 8. Gate 9. Mine (large rocks around a black hole) 10. Hen
After trying the link system, you can see that these items are very easy to tie to their numerical position in the list because they mostly sound like the number at their position.
They are also very easy to make a simple mental picture of along with any item which you might want to remember by putting them together in your mind pictures.
This is the way that I learned the system, but some other people teach a variation which uses pictures of objects which resemble the numbers to some degree.
Picture Pegs
- 1Golf club (1 vertical upright)
- Swan (2 is like the swan’s curved neck)
- Fork (with 3 points or tynes)
- Yacht (4 is like the shape of the sail)
- Your hand (Gimme five!)
- Snail (ball is shell with neck curving up)
- Cliff edge
- Snowman (1 ball on top of another)
- Microbe (ball is the body with a curved tail)
- Moon (round ball). Use the Moon rather than a ball because it will probably suggest more
ways to link to the item from the list which you want to remember.
Because the pictures of these items are an essential part of the Word Peg system, it is worth spending a little extra time to get your mental pictures of them as sharp as possible.
You can use this as a substitute for the link system with things like the shopping list from the previous section.
I won’t take you through that whole process in full detail again.
When you are comfortable with your recall of the Word Pegs themselves, test yourself with a list like the one provided for the link system practice: Bread, Fish, Newspaper, Apples, Toothpaste, Milk, Candy bars, Sausages, Lettuce, Lottery ticket.
If you already have done the exercise for the Link System, then it would be better to use a different list of 10 items this time. You might include a couple from the old list, but at different positions, to see how well the new list replaces the earlier one in your mind. But you shouldn’t make these first sessions any harder than you are comfortable with.
If the repeat items show up at the right positions in your new list, then you’re going very well in improving your memory usage.
Just take each item in turn from your shopping list and make a vivid mental picture containing that item and your next Word Peg. Make the pictures as silly as you like.
It should not take long or a lot of effort – don’t spend as much time on the pictures for each of the items in the lists you make as you did when you were setting the Word Pegs in place in your memory. The lists are each only needed for a relatively short time.
