AbdulSalamIf you forget things often and look for the most precise answer to “How to Remember what you read”,. This Blog is the right place for you.
Let Me Ask you a Quick Question about reading. How Many Books Have You Read? Can you name any ten? Well! for most people, this recall is a bit scary. I conducted a survey last year & the average reader had read 50 books in his lifetime, but on average, most people could only recall 6 names out of those 50.
Why does This happen?
Why do we even forget the names of books we spent hours reading them? This is all about memory (Sensory, Short-term, and long-term things). Today, we will discuss a few things to remember better.
1-WHY?
#1 Answer to “How to Remember what you read” is your “Why” of reading. Once, I was thinking about how to be less tense about the things going on in my Environment & I found the famous Mark Manson’s book “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck”
That Book, title, Idea & centre of the story-I never forget. His Blogs answered my WHY, HOW, WHEN & WHAT. So, if you are reading something, ask yourself- Why will you spend the next 6 hours of your life reading that piece of literature or something? How is This Book Going to Help you? What are you expecting from that book? Once you have the answers, you will have a reason to be more focused. Oh Yes, that is our next point——–Focus
2-Focus:
#2 Answer to “How to Remember what you read” is your Hyperfocus. Focus is something achievable. You have to decide that you will not pick up your phone for a while. I have explained the concept of hyper-focus & scatter focus in my course on udemy & instead of giving quick life hacks about focus. I gave an in-depth idea of how we can adopt the lifestyle of Focus. Join us & see the difference. Link: https://www.udemy.com/course/focus-mastery-with-abdulsalam-chaudhary/
3-Think-Discuss & Put it Out:
#3 Answer to “How to Remember what you read” is your Discussion with your Fellows. You know, when we read something, we only remember 5% of the whole context. But when we discuss it, we raise this level to 80% & when we teach that thing, idea, a story to others, this bar reaches 90%. So, do the reading wisely.
4-Take Notes
The last Point of “How to Remember what you read” is Writing down your Notes. Pen down Important Things, Prefer to make notes in the book so that you don’t have to save them anywhere else. That’s for today; I don’t want to make you bored.
