Memorization problems -
Loci System Making You Loco

Dealing with memorization problems does have its effect on us and
how we perceive the task. But it doesn't have to be difficult at
all. We still have a good chance of improving our memorization
capabilities if we just practice.

One way to do this is to concentrate on what you see so you can
recall it later. There is a mnemonic method called the Loci System.

Now, how does this work?

The idea works with the places or landmarks that you see everyday.
And since you see them everyday, they are all familiar to you so
there wouldn't be any problem in trying to recall them. Though you
can apply flexibility in using this method, it is highly
recommended that you deal with the areas that are most familiar to
you.

For example, paper, aluminum foil, doll, lotion and eggs are the
items which you need to remember. You can start grabbing things
that you see in your mind and relate it to any of the items
mentioned above. Start with the paper and pretend that you're going
downstairs. As you go, imagine the stairs made of paper, thin and
white. You then turn on your aluminum foil-wrapped TV as you sit in
the living room. Next, you stare out the window and you see a doll
mowing your lawn. As you wait anxiously for breakfast, you storm in
to the kitchen and you see a bottle of lotion using an orange juice
maker, and then you see the eggs, beating each other up inside the
bowl.

So, all you need to do is create a completely wild scenario using
the items that you need to remember, together with what you're
going to relate them with.
