Exercise For Improving Memorizing Power

Take any monochrome (one-colored) picture having many items. Scenic pictures are most suitable for this task. Look at the picture for one minute. Now put it away and write a list of everything you saw in the picture. Then tally your list with the items in the picture to see what you missed out. Take another picture and repeat the exercise once again to check what you missed out.  Use a picture only once because it is less likely to miss out anything when you repeat the exercise using the same picture. Practicing this exercise on 2 or 3 pictures everyday should be more than enough. You don’t have to buy pictures to practice it. There are plenty of pictorial books available having several pictures. One of such book may go on for days. Once you start doing well in a one minute exercise, you should gradually reduce the time taken to observe the picture to 1-2 seconds in the end.

The second exercise involves studying multicolored pictures. You will have to write the description of both the colors and the appearance of the various elements in the picture. You can take more than a minute to start with but should again start reducing the time gradually. If you continue this practice of observing and noting down the description of the picture, you will soon notice that your memorizing power has improved significantly.
