^ Introduction - Impressive Memory Stunts\
The systems you have learned during the Memory Master course will enable you
to perform 'feats' of memory that most people would find totally impossible.
Some of the best stunts involve knowing Peg Words 1 to 100 thoroughly, so if
you would like to try some of these stunts and have not yet learned all one
hundred Peg Words, go back to Tutorial 13 and work through it all. If you
are confident with the rules of the Phonetic Alphabet, the Peg Words really
are very simple to learn.
As you gain more and more practice at applying the Memory Master systems,
you will probably find that you can invent your own memory stunts. The
beauty of the systems is that they are ^flexible\, and can be applied to
^anything\ you wish to remember.
If you have a particular hobby or interest, you may find that applying the
systems to facts and data about your hobby will help you become an 'expert'
at that topic, because you can rapidly increase your knowledge. In fact,
this is the area where the systems probably work best. You are already
interested in the information, or you presumably wouldn't have chosen that
hobby.#
This means that your >Initial Awareness\ of the information will already be
high - you concentrate on the information because you are really interested
in it. Applying the systems will enable you to improve your knowledge of the
subject, |rapidly\ and |effectively\.
The same applies to your work. If your job in any way involves facts,
figures, names, dates, etc., you will find that applying the systems to some
of that data will quickly gain you a reputation as a source of knowledge
among your colleagues. This can do your promotion prospects no harm, and a
lot of good !
Tutorial 18 suggests some memory stunts that you can use to demonstrate your
new-found mental 'powers'.
