This book isdedicated to my family whose unyielding support gave me the drive to get thingsdone no matter how difficult the process may be.
Chapter 1- Memory- What is it and Why is it So Important?
There are a variety of definitionsfor memory; let’s look at the most common meanings.
Memory is defined as "theability to store and retain information from daily experiences; archive thisinformation in folders for use at a later date."
There are different types of memoryour brain can store, they are:
1. Short term
2. Long term
3. Sensory
4. Explicit
5. Implicit
6. Episodic
7. Semantic
Your short term memory, also knownas "working memory," is the type of memory we use most often. Thispart of our memory bank is used for daily functions such as calculations,writing letters, conversations, and onetime events. The impact a particularexperience has on us also determines how long we remember things.
If you're involved in a car accidentor robbery; these are situations that greatly impact the victims and will stickin their memories for a very long time.
Recall - when talking about whatmemory is, we must include recall as part of the definition. It’s one thing toretain information and it is another to extract it from the memory banks. Thistwo part process is what makes memory a vital part of learning.
Sensory Memory - sight, smell,hearing, and touch are all forms of sensory memory. Again, the impact each experiencehas on you determines how long you will retain the memory. For example, if youwent to a restaurant and had a really fantastic meal, this would have apositive impact on you that could last for a long time. The opposite could alsobe true, and in this case your recall mechanism kicks in reminding you ofrestaurants you don't want to revisit again.
Why is Your Memory Important?
Memory and Learning - this is one ofthe main reasons memory is so important. Imagine having to ask the samequestion over and over again because you cannot remember the answer. Therewouldn't be the progress and development in technology we see today. Everythingwe do is based on memory. You have to remember how to get home from work. Doyou remember how to get to your friends house? How about the weddinganniversary? Forgetting this can cause a lot of tension in your life.
Memory and Making a Living - peopledon't connect the two - memory and work. You must depend on your memory, bothshort and long term, to perform daily functions. Yes, you can write things downin lieu of having to remember them but imagine the time it would take to dodaily tasks. If anything, you should be increasing your memory capacity andreducing your dependency on lists for routine jobs.
Pain and Pleasure - memory isimportant so we can avoid those things causing us pain and continue with thosethings that give us pleasure. One of the best examples is in the food category.
