Show Highlights:

●     How Chester became “The International Man of Memory”

●     Three main principles of memory skills:

○     Visuals--Turn what you want to remember into a picture in your mind.

○     Additional senses--The more senses you use to encode information into your brain, the more your brain is activated to remember.

○     Psychological aspect--We remember things that catch us by surprise and are unexpected, so attach something extraordinary to what you want to remember.

●     Chester’s memory technique called the “story method”--and how to use it

●     The practical application of memory to business success in remembering names:

○     Repeat the person’s name when introduced.

○     Ask them a question using their name.

○     Connect the name to something familiar.

○     Say goodbye to the person using their name.

●     How memory skills benefit someone who is giving a presentation (Use mental picture clues instead of notes!)

●     How to remember the things you have to look up repeatedly
