With an emphasis on how to learn and exercises to strengthen your mind as you age, Maximize Your Memory expands your memories into powerful tools that will improve and revolutionize your everyday life and help you conquer personal challenges.

Most people want to learn better and faster, retain more information, and be able to apply that knowledge at the right time. But the reality is that we forget a lot of what we learn. In fact, research shows that within just one hour, if nothing is done with new information, most people will have forgotten about 50% of what they learned. After 24 hours, this amount increases to 70%, and if a week passes without that information being used, up to 90% of it could be lost. To improve knowledge acquisition and retention, new information must be consolidated and securely stored in long-term memory.

Here are just a few ways that your relationship to your memory can be improved:

• Use the power of your imagination to remember systematically
• Create mental "file cards" for storing information
• Learn dates and times, names and faces, foreign languages, directions, presentations, shopping lists, and more
• Become a winner at bridge and other card games
• Understand how your memory changes over time
• Make yourself more memorable in social situations

Get ready to increase your memory beyond your wildest dreams.
