How to TURBO-CHARGE your memory, so you can easily remember ANY NUMBER

Step 4 Bonus thoughts #2: practical applications:

I have strange words written with sharpies on my lesser-used debit cards. These words like "sister," "umbrella," and "togatime" correspond to their PIN numbers.

Whenever I have to remember a fedex tracking number, I take about one minute and figure out the translated phrase and for the next week or so I can always remember the tracking number in case I am near an internet source but I don't have the email from my home computer with the tracking number. Very helpful.

Also, when starting a new job it seems like you always are bombarded with a deluge of numbers to memorize: login numbers, department codes, keypad code for the front door, new employee i.d. number, etc. etc. This is a very helpful way to impress the hell out of everyone when you are the first new guy that isn't having to ask everyone for the first month what these stupid little codes are.

So that's it. There is also another good memory device that works well with these number "peg" words, but I will save that for another instructable. Unless someone that sees this knows the system too and wants to pick up where I left off, in which case that would be great.

Thanks for reading this, and have a good one. Now GO MEMORIZE SOME NUMBERS!
