Ask HN: How can I improve my memory?
Does anyone have suggestions/personal experience in regards to improving their memory?
I have gotten to the point in my life where I question what I do for pleasure, because since I cannot remember it, what's the point of doing it?
I want to finish Discworld but I can barely remember the books after reading them...
How is your sleep quality? If that is good, I also recommend meditation. Journaling is also great for distilling and capturing experiences.
Diet and exercise (unfortunately), I recommend Pilates for exercise, worked for me, but running is good to they say.
learn behavioral psych, esp factors influencing learning memory and recall. learn mentalist techniques, and exercise them as well as your recall.
read a page, stop, recall it, repeat, read a chapter recall the story line so far, repeat.
