 8 Tips & Tricks To Help You Remember Everyday Things!

Reminder, Note, Sticky Note
“Where did I leave my keys?”“What am I forgetting to buy?”“What time is that meeting?”“He just introduced himself a minute ago…and I already forgot his name.”

We all have those moments when our memory fails us on the seemingly simplest daily tasks and items to remember.  Although the occasional memory loss is probably inevitable, there are ways we can reduce the number of “blank out” moments in our lives.  Try using these 8 easy tricks to improve your memory for those small things in life!

1. Pay attention – Give the item you know you will need to remember your full, undivided attention when you first input it into your brain.  For example, listen to the introduction being given to you instead of worrying about what you need to say after, or take some time to think about everything you need to buy before you leave your home. 
Person, Man, Binary, Null, One


2. Repeat it– With everything you need to remember, use a minute or two to repeat it over and over in your mind. This works for locations, people, inanimate objects, exam notes…anything you want to stick and stay in your brain.
Checklist, Task, To Do, List, Plan, Work

3. Use your senses – When you forget something, use all of your senses to try to remember it.  For example, if you forget where your first date with your significant other was, try to think about the things you touched, tasted, felt, smelled, saw, etc.  It is very likely one of these sensory cues will help you remember.

4. Associate it– Use random associations that make sense to you when you need to remember something.  
  • Rhymes: The new guy at work called Stan goes to the beach a lot = Tan Stan.
  • Mnemonics: I need to buy Beef, Ricotta cheese, Apples, Nuts, Donuts from the grocery store today = B.R.A.N.D
  • Personal links: I always leave my keys on the table below the family portrait = name your keys “Family Keys”
5. Create a routine – If you need to remember something on a continuous basis, like locking the door or feeding a pet, make it a routine.  Create a schedule and do the task at the exact same time in the exact same way every time you need to do it. 
6. Take a break – Sometimes you need to rest your brain a little before you put it to work again.  Even if something is at the tip of your tongue, overusing your brain will likely make you begin to doubt or confuse yourself.
Park, Walk, Take Away, Coffee, Break

7.  Write it down – When you have too many things to remember at once, just write it down!  The easiest way to “remember” is to make a concrete note.  Use sticky notes, mobile device reminders, voice recordings, etc. 

 Diary, School, Office, Education

Undecidability

Amu_Ke_Fundye Undecidability Decidable Problem If there is a Turing machine that decides the problem, called as Decidable problem. A decision problem that can be solved by an algorithm that halts on all inputs in a finite number of steps. A problem is decidable, if there is an algorithm that can answer either yes or no. A language for which membership can be decided by an algorithm that halts on all inputs in a finite number of steps. Decidable problem is also called as totally decidable problem, algorithmically solvable, recursively solvable. Undecidable Problem A problem that cannot be solved for all cases by any algorithm whatsoever. Equivalent Language cannot be recognized by a Turing machine that halts for all inputs. The following problems are undecidable problems: Halting Problem:  A halting problem is undecidable problem. There is no general method or algorithm which can solve the halting problem for all possible inputs. Emptyness Problem:...

Funny Shortcut to Remember Periodic Table

Amu_Ke_Fundye Funny Shortcut to Remember Periodic Table THE PERIODIC TABLE The periodic table is a tabular display of the chemical elements, organized on the basis of their atomic number's , electron configurations, and chemical properties.In order to appreciate the general trends in chemistry and to explain the deviations of some from these general trends we need to to have good knowledge about the position of those elements in periodic table. This knowledge is also extremely important for competitive exams. So, here I present a way to memorize this using some funny easy shortcut sentences.

Sequential Logic Circuits

Amu_Ke_Fundye Sequential Logic Circuits In sequential logic circuit, the output is dependent upon the present inputs as well as the past inputs and outputs. Sequential circuit is of two types. Synchronous Sequential Circuit:  Change in input signals can affect memory elements only upon activation of clock signals. Asynchronous Sequential Circuit:  Change in input signals can affect memory elements at any instant of time. These are faster than synchronous circuit. Flip Flops: It is a one-bit memory cell which stores the 1-bit logical data (logic 0 or logic 1). It is a basic memory element. The most commonly used application of flip flops is in the implementation of a feedback circuit. As a memory relies on the feedback concept, flip flops can be used to design it. In synchronous sequential circuit, Memory elements are clocked flip flops and generally edge triggered. In asynchronous sequential circuit, Memory elements are unclocked flip flops / t...
