World's First Online Memory Course for Everyone
Unique online,interactive Memory Improvement Course.
(PRWEB) June 5, 2005 -- Everyone knows that they could get more out of their
memory... but until now, hardly anyone has been able to do anything about
it.
Whenever we forget a name, miss an appointment, struggle to learn for
an exam or feel the terror rise in us at the thought of speaking from memory, we
wish we had a memory we could feel confident about.
Everything we do is
controlled by memory, and everything could be done better, if only we could take
control of what's going on between our ears. With a strong memory we could plan
our lives better, manage our time, achieve more at work, be more confident
socially, and cope with all the new information we're faced with every day. We
could keep our memory skills sharp and our minds active long into old age, and
bring up our children in the best thinking habits.
But most people will
never do anything about their memory, letting it fail them again and again and
developing a conviction that theirs is probably the worst memory in the
world.
Jonathan Hancock has one of the best memories in the world. A
multiple memory world record holder and World Memory Champion, he was
disillusioned by all the overcomplicated and overpriced memory guides on the
market. He decided to create the first ever down-to-earth online guide to
memory: a straightforward, practical, fun explanation of every aspect of
learning and remembering, designed to meet everyone's day to day needs, and at a
price everyone could afford.
'What's the point of knowing how to remember
pi to ten thousand places, or regurgitating all the teams that ever won the FA
Cup?' he says. 'What people want to know is how to remember a couple of bits of
shopping on the way home from work; the names of the people sitting at their
table at a wedding meal; their friends' birthdays, their computer passwords,
their own mobile phone numbers...'
With six books about memory already
under his belt and a decade's experience of training people's minds, Jonathan
Hancock set out to create the first ever memory website designed for
everyone.
'The idea is that everyone who reads it will start benefitting
from it immediately. It explains how the memory works in terms that everyone can
understand, and demonstrates revolutionary techniques that anyone can put into
practice right away. The most important thing is that people see how good their
memory actually is, even though they feel they've struggled with it all their
lives.'
Jonathan taught himself to have the best memory in the world, and
he's convinced that everyone can develop memory skills to help their
lives.
'For more than ten years I've been training people from four to
eighty-four to start using their memories properly. I've not found anyone who
didn't amaze themselves with what they could do. Whether you're a student
struggling with exam revision, a stressed-out professional drowning under a tide
of new information, or a busy parent desperate to stay in control of life, this
website provides you with practical advice for harnessing the creative power of
your memory.'
'It's a great feeling to be confident about your
memory.'
Memorypower.org is the result of Jonathan's personal adventures
in memory. It explains the best strategies for learning words and numbers,
lists, names, spellings, foreign languages... It reveals the secrets of speaking
from memory, and demonstrates how everyone can start to be more memorable to
others. It includes Jonathan's own system for memorizing playing cards which won
him two Guinness world records, and a unique technique for remembering numbers
that has been described as the most powerful ever devised. It explains how your
brain works, and what you need to do to make it work for everything you need to
know.
'I've seen how basic memory training changes people's lives,'
Jonathan says. 'Through memorypower.org, I want as many people as possible to
realise how powerful their memory potential truly is.'
