To improve memory, we can apply certain efficacious techniques and become more adept. Research shows that improving neuroplasticity can keep the brain more active.
First, regular retrieval practice makes memory stronger. When we recapitulate old information, it becomes more deeply consolidated.
Second, when learning new information, synthesizing it with analogous concepts helps the brain easily assimilate it. This improves the brain's cognizant state.
Third, meticulous planning and delineating organized information makes it easier to remember. Additionally, meditation and adequate sleep can bolster brain functionality.
Finally, prolific reading and learning new skills engender memory capacity, which is essential for personal and professional development.
