We were there, we're tapping these numbers and some of us even turning the rotary to get these numbers.

And that physical process, doing it over and over again, lended itself to being borrowed in our memories.

Nowadays, we don't have to think twice.

We can ask an AI assistant to call somebody and we never even have to even touch our phone.

It's wild.

But hopefully that's that's a good reminder to people that, you know, our brains are capable of things that nowadays might seem really difficult.

Or how does it work?

Yeah, great question.

When I wrote my first book, this was almost 10 years ago, I really had to distill down what it takes to memorize anything, to broaden the techniques.

Because when you dive into a memory competition, there's very specific things we have to memorize.

So you train for that, right?

We're memorizing numbers, we're memorizing playing cards, poems, lists of words, and then names and all sorts of other extra details about people.

And that's kind of it.

So you train that and you're good at that.

But then when you're trying to broaden the techniques to everything, what is at play here?

And I've been able to boil it down to really three simple steps that I use to remember everything.

And I'll share them in a second.

But each step has its...

it's depth to it, right?

So really depending on what you're memorizing, you can modify the techniques appropriately for different things.
