Many people often forget important things, some cannot remember their friend's date of birth, and some regularly forget their shopping list on their way to the store. What is the reason? How to always remember what we need?

The answer to this question is quite simple. Your brain remembers everything even without your desire. For example, in order not to forget the shopping list on the way to the store, it is necessary at the planning stage to imagine how you came from the store and put the planned purchases in their places (pasta in the nightstand, milk in the refrigerator, etc.). Thus, you will link each purchase to a specific place and at the moment when you ask the question "what else did I want to buy?" You will immediately remember how you put the “pilaf seasoning” in the bottom cabinet of the top cabinet.

If you need to remember, for example, when your friend's birthday is, try to remember how you celebrated his birthdays before. What time of the year was it, winter? Summer? What did you want to give him? Or why didn't you manage to go? Perhaps due to the fact that you got a new job and passed a medical commission or were preparing for an exam? Thus, step by step, you can easily remember the date you need.

The fact is that best of all, people have a developed visual memory and when composing images, you seem to draw colorful pictures in front of you that are easily perceived by the brain, and it will gladly reproduce them at any time when you need it.
