Tip 5: Concentration

Concentration is nothing but hard thought fixed upon one thing at a time. Mostly during studies a part of our thinking is not related to the studies. So we need to improve our power of concentration. Do a simple powerful exercise for it.

Example: Take a table clock. Put it on the top of your television and sit at a usual distance to watch television. But this time, instead of watching television, focus your total attention on the second’s hand of the clock. Look at the second’s hand and every thought of yours should be of the second’s hand only.

While doing so, your attention be diverted a number of times towards the television. Whenever this happens, take your attention back to the second’s hand. Do the exercise for 5 minutes a day. You would see improvement on your concentration power in ten days.

Tip 6: Tonic for Memory

You must hear names of medicines for memory plus, Mega mind...etc. To check the claims, you may conduct an experiment. First collect 10 persons of age group of 23 to 27 years and told them that you have a tonic that could double their memory if they take it for three months regularly.

Before commencing the experiment, you give all of them a memory test. You give five of them a popular brand of memory tonic and rest a coloured drink. After three months, another memory test was given to them. The result was that all of them scored more than the previous test. On an average, increase in the percentage of marks of those who took the memory tonic was the same as those who took only plain coloured drink.

After a little analysis, you see that memory improvement in all the ten could be due to psychological reasons. During the three months, all the persons in the sample test gave a message to the brain that they are doing something for their brain so the brain responded by getting better. Thus, it concludes that positive thinking can do wonders to our memory.

Tip 7: Memory Route

To reduce the revision time, we need to condense the whole theory of 5 to 10 pages into one diagram. By doing so, only a glance will be sufficient to make us recall the whole theory. Let us make an attempt to make the memory route for whatever we read in this article.

Tip 8: Acronym

It is a technique used to further condense the theory into just a few words. Let’s say, we want to condense this article into just 2-3 words. The word could be Christmas Day.

Let have the closer look at the word:

? C: concentration

? R: revision plan

? I: interval

? S: senses

? T: tonic for memory

? M: memory route

? A: acronym

? S:

? D: drink water

? A:

? Y:

By just recalling Christmas Day, we will be able to recall all the eight tips. I am sure that all of them will help you in learning and remembering effectively. To make sure that we are following all the tips, just write TIP 8 and paste it on your study table. This will help you remember all these tips.
