The Power of Memory techniques, with Simon Reinhard, World Memory Champion


Listen Later

I had the pleasure of interviewing Simon Reinhard, World Memory Champion and memory coach.

We talked about his journey and Simon explained the memory techniques he mastered, like the Method of Loci that helped him m learn many subjects that he is now teaching through personalised courses.

Through this conversation, I discovered the world of memory tournaments. It was such an inspiring episode on unlocking the mind's full potential and I am excited for everyone to listen to it. Key takeaways:

  • Simon Reinhardt is a two-time world memory champion
  • Memory techniques can be applied to various fields, including law and medicine.
  • The method of loci is a core memory technique that uses locations as memory tools.
  • Practicing memory techniques leads to faster learning and retention.
  • Success is about continuous self-improvement rather than just achieving goals.
  • Memory continues to improve over time: there is no limit
