  1. Hey, so this is my project on how to develop
  2. a perfect memory.
  3. Um This book is by Dominic O'brien and there's just
  4. my name.
  5. Um So okay to answer the first question, I do
  6. believe that O'brien is an expert in this field because
  7. he is an eight time world memory champion.
  8. Um which I think is pretty impressive and I think
  9. that um he must you know be an expert to
  10. be that successful in this field.
  11. Um so this book was published in 1994 Um and
  12. the book itself is 176 pages.
  13. Um the summary includes the five major steps of how
  14. to develop a perfect memory um as well as there
  15. are multiple like principal templates and worksheets and different pages
  16. that you can print too um help you along as
  17. you're reading.
  18. Um So the main points of the summary um are
  19. to kind of break down the five steps of developing
  20. a perfect memory and just kind of going into detail
  21. of each one um and just making sure that they
  22. really break it down and provide examples and um Just
  23. clearly describe each one.
  24. Um and the five steps include um the versus the
  25. journey method.
  26. The second is linking, The 3rd is association, The 4th
  27. is the dominant method And the 5th is reviewing um
  28. And so along with the five steps like I said,
  29. there are examples of each one um So it can
  30. give you um kind of like um a basic example
  31. of each one and kind of how um each one
  32. what each one's role is into helping you um better
  33. your memory and just like describing its purpose.
  34. Um So personally my biggest takeaway from this book is
  35. that I've always been one that has struggled a lot
  36. with the king that I have an awful memory and
  37. just thinking that that's just part of who I am
  38. and that um I like there's nothing I can really
  39. do to fix it.
  40. Um But by reading this book um I did have
  41. the takeaway of there are things that you can do
  42. to improve your memory and that um it's not just
  43. a part of who you are and you can control
  44. it and you can better yourself and that there are
  45. ways to improve.
  46. Um So kind of going along with that um I
  47. did choose this book for my project because I did
  48. think that out of all the different options that this
  49. would be the most beneficial to me um Considering that
  50. um my struggle with my memory is a big part
  51. of um like me being a student and just me
  52. and my everyday life um I was really excited to
  53. see how this would help me in um the parts
  54. of you know, studying and everything that I struggle with.
  55. Um So I do think that I'm going to her
  56. that I plan to use this information in my day
  57. to day life.
  58. Um Obviously I think that working on my memory is
  59. super important and super beneficial and I think that um
  60. being able to learn this information and use it in
  61. my day to day life is going to help me
  62. a lot um with like developing a better memory and
  63. helping me just improve overall.
  64. Um and I do think that this information is helpful
  65. for others because obviously I'm sure that there are people
  66. like me that struggle with their memory and that thing
  67. but there's nothing they can do about it and that's
  68. just part of who they are.
  69. Um But I think that having this information is going
  70. to help them um better themselves and become more confident
  71. in themselves and with their ability to remember different information
  72. and just um kind of help them overcome their insecurities.
  73. Mhm. Um And lastly I I do think that this
  74. book was included in this project because it um talks
  75. about a very important part of um to this day
  76. to day life and especially being a student um I
  77. spent like in college or even um in high school
  78. or even like elementary school, a bit up to grad
  79. school, everything in between.
  80. Um I do think that this book was included because
  81. it can be very helpful too many people who as
  82. I've said like struggle with their memory and mm just
  83. overall I think that this book is very beneficial for
  84. many people and each person can kind of take bits
  85. and pieces or use all of it um to help
  86. them um work on themselves and to develop a yeah,
  87. maybe not perfect, but definitely a better memory.
  88. Um So yeah.
  89. Thank you.
