This is the 31st post in my January challenge. I posted to this blog everyday for the month of January. I wanted to do at least one thing everyday for a month every month of 2010. The month of February ends my 90 day Chinese challenge, but my Chinese study will continue throughout the year.
The mind cannot tell the difference between a real event and an imaginary one. Guess that explains why horror movies, as fiction and harmless as they are, can scare the crap out of us.
Today I continued completed the 3rd lesson in the audio-book Memory in a Month by Ron White?. Last time, White challenged the listener to memorize a list of 20 items by using number associations. In today’s lesson, he challenges the reader to remember 19 items by visualizing a story involving a German Shepherd riding down the mountain on a bicycle.
So, here’s the second lesson in Memory in a Month by Ron White. I skipped a few days, but I haven’t given up. Day 1 is “History of memory training.”
Day 2 is “Basic Association definition and uses.”
The master violinist I talked about before once said that the hardest part about practicing 8 hours a day is actually opening the case. It helps to visualize the end result to get started.
