Anthony Metivier I turned my drive on the Interstate into a video game lol...memorizing license plate numbers lol...noticing types of cars people drive, mile markers. When I stopped observed the road stops,etc...minimal amount of distraction. I had Joe Rogan podcasts on and memorized names of vitamins lol...on the way back it was hard to maintain concentration in bumper traffic in snow but my experiment worked. When I got home memorizing numbers was a lot easier. I am also remembering names a whole lot quicker! I stop people at work and ask them their name and tell them I want to remember who you are which people find strange.
These are all amazing exercises. I like the vitamins exercise a lot because shows like his can go by really fast. Yes, people might find it strange if you let them know you're working on this, but you get to enjoy the brain fitness, so it's definitely worth standing out a bit. :)
That's great news - it's been a favorite of mine for years. Kind of weird, but it really helps zero in on total focus. Stay tuned for some more exercises to come. In fact... if you haven't been in the MMM Mastermind lately, the April 2018 exercise is really good for building consistency, dexterity, volume and speed for memorizing numbers. Check it out when you have a chance. :)
For someone with ADD such as myself, these exercises immediately made my life better, especialy the "repeat what others are saying" one. Thank you very much!
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM the numeric one. Seems incredibly easy to start with, but as I start it, before I know it, I’ve stopped doing it. That sort of looks like I’ve got a concentration problem!
Not necessarily. It's just a matter of setting a practice regime and creating a "Stop Stopping" system around yourself. I've shared some tips around how I've done that for myself here: ruclips.net/video/NyUsLTPHbTk/видео.html
Thank you Anthony. I'm going to share this with my boyfriend. We both want our brains to last as long as our bodies. My best to you and yours. Thanks again.

Thanks so much for the vote of confidence. I really appreciate it. If you share this around and continue commenting on the channel, more subs will come. Thanks if you're able to support in that way and look forward to your next post! :-)
Anthony, your passion for memory techniques has transformed countless lives. Your wisdom and generosity inspire us all. Thank you for being a guiding light.
Thanks, George. Actually, there are worse things than being brain dead. Digital Amnesia is one of them: www.magneticmemorymethod.com/digital-amnesia/ I prefer this term to Digital Dementia, which was the original term used in Germany. Have you ever been around someone with dementia or Alzheimer's? I have and there are no words that can exaggerate the pain and suffering these conditions create. Your thoughts?
My pleasure. Thanks for taking a moment to watch and comment. I hope you subscribed to join the community and we look forward to hearing more from you soon! :-)

That's wonderful to hear, Trudy. Thank you for taking a moment to let me know.

Let me know if you have interest in that and please keep us posted on how your students enjoy these exercises. Can't wait to learn more! :-)
Finally, something I've been looking for. I was doing it wrong :< I was using brain app games and nothing has improved! I will try your tips!! thank you so much for this.
Thanks for your comment. There are reasons why the brain game apps aren't working for people. There's an interview on my podcast that explains one reason why they're failing. Let me know if you'd like the link to that and I'll get it to you. Thanks again for your post. I look forward to the next one.
Yes, and perhaps it will make more sense to you in writing. Here's a fuller description: www.magneticmemorymethod.com/brain-exercises/ There's also more discussion at the end of the written version and a podcast that goes deeper into the deeps on this video. Is this useful for you? :-)

The practical applications of these techniques are helpful! I would love to see you go into the memory benefits of learning/memorizing music. If not on an instrument, memorizing lyrics linked with a melody (or vice versa) is healthy for the brain!

Anthony Metivier - I came across your video moments ago. I’ve had a few incidents of being hit in the head. I’ve got it in my mind that I’ve accrued the poor sleep, learning, communication & concentration from these incidents. It wasn’t diagnosed but they were heavy/scary hits; I play electric/acoustic guitar and was once in a fully operating band that toured successfully. The incidents left my with being a recluse and socially anxiety case until learning about the minds hidden skill to heal and overcome addictions, memory loss, learning skills and communication. Is there anything you can suggest? I’m redefining myself and giving full efforts to reinvent myself, via Alan Watts meditation, dadivji etc. thank you very much for your time and videos!
@@wolfm8097 Thanks for your comment and checking out this channel. I hope you will get subscribed and join us on some of our future live streams. Sorry to hear about the head injuries.

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM Yes thank you Anthony, remembering people's facial features. Had a big weekend, too much alcohol. And will work on the others. Thanks for following up.
I watch videos of certain dances I want to learn a few times in a row and memorize the moves step by step in my brain until I can do the entire dance in my head before I physically try the dance. Surely that has to be good for the brain.
Yes, that is very good for the brain and a challenge. It would tap into your procedural, figural, episodic and surely several other levels of your memory. Have you ever mentally reproduced dances you haven't done, such as the Pulp Fiction dance scene? Are you also replaying the music in your own dances? :-)
R/sir, you are provided very good information, i would like to use this video for some educational purpose. kindly please provide the permission Thank you
Thanks, Blue World. You can share the link to this video and my channel, but it is not available in any other way. Thanks for understanding and for your kind words about the content.
Thanks so much for the video - the information provided is most helpful. Improving my memory is a concern of mine - the direction provided is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for asking about this. Yes, I talk about it in great detail in my free course. The link is in the description and the video itself. Have you subscribed for it? :)
I am practicing mentalism and hypnosis as I am suffering from epilepsy... So because of medication and other similar reasons I am having a hard time getting to the concept of memory palace.. Please suggest something that might help.. 😇
Thanks for this question, Rajat. First, please see a doctor to rule out any cognition issues from your medications. Then, to lear the Memory Palace better, make sure to complete a course that takes you thoroughly through it. You might want to take several so you have the fullest possible perspective. Hope this helps! :-)
I didn’t quite grasp the metronome exercise. What do you actually do between the beats or covering those beats? Is the aim to concentrate on something without giving in to distraction?
Thanks, Anthony. The goal is to cover the beat. What one does between the beats is to focus on the goal of covering the beat. It's not easy and makes for a great brain workout. Extend the time between beats for as long as you can to really stretch your focus and concentration. Does this way of looking at it make sense?
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM what does “cover” the beat mean? I understand that this exercise will happen between beats, and you can aim to extend the length between beats. But what do you do when you cover it? I don’t understand that part. Is it listen to the beat? Hold your breath? Concentrate on one idea?
Snap or clap to "cover" the beat. Then, during the silence, anticipate when it will come and cover it with the sound of your clapping or snapping. I'll have to review the video to see if I've been unclear. Historically, this is one of the most popular of the exercises I've shared, and I want to make sure it's clear to as many people as possible. Is there any specific wording you would add to how I explain it in the video so this is clearer?
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM yes. The word “cover” could be understood as a metaphor, or have other nuances. So, even explaining the “clap” or “snap your fingers”, or even “silently have a bet with yourself of when exactly the beat will happen”, that would COVER the problem I had understanding it in the initial video. It’s a great exercise. I’m going to try it with my children.
Glad that way of explaining it helps it. I guess it's a common thing amongst musicians and I was in tunnel vision... Thanks for helping me clarify it! :-)
Thanks for checking this out, Fostin. I have a live stream replay about short term memory here: ruclips.net/video/ize_i_7TcuM/видео.html Please stay tuned for a formal video version coming soon. Thanks for your post and hope to see another from you in the near future! :)
I have been to a memory competition and did pretty well. It's not really that interesting to me, however. I'd rather focus on language learning. Do you compete yourself?
No with reference to this video like when I observe four things in person or four things in car which I did today...after how much time i should test my memory
Now I understand. Thank you. I would suggest practicing and testing in 5-10 minute sessions. Once a day should be fine, but you can certainly get more from a variety of sessions spaced out over time. Experimentation and exploration are the key.
Is this a memory test? ;) I've recently added a bunch more here: www.magneticmemorymethod.com/brain-exercises/ You can read them there to refresh your memory and learn some more. :-)
Hello, thanks for the informations, I would like to know what's your opinion in the game 2n-back, obviously played at a higher level, (above 5n back), limiting subvocalization? PS I tried to look on the comments but I don't found anyone mentioning it. Thanks again
I personally think it’s a waste of time and cannot fathom why it would help anyone given that it breaks the four rules of brain exercise. Give this a try instead: ruclips.net/video/eRFNXZxjGEU/видео.html
Thanks for your post. It's as described: pick a 3 digit number. Add 3 and minus 7, accurately tracking your progress and accuracy for as long as you can. Give it a go with pen and pencil first if you struggle to do it in your mind. :-)
Thanks for this question, Jaap. I do not think "replace" is the right word, but certainly musicians do get a lot of similar exercise. One thing to consider is the frame effect. For example, there was a study of hotel cleaners. Half were told that vacuuming, etc. was exercise more calories are burned when they take the stairs instead of the elevator (or something like this.) The other half were just told to take the stairs. Those who were told their work was "exercise" burned more calories and felt fitter than those who didn't. I don't know for sure, but perhaps there are people who could be getting great brain exercise as musicians, but aren't because they don't think of it as brain exercise. But at the end of the day, most of the brain exercises on my full website page are not related to music so I can't see how being a musician would get one close.
You could try that, Newton, but I don't think you would be getting the same brain exercise. But if you started with a 6 or 7 digit number and played plus/minus with that using 4 and 5 digit numbers, that would be a great workout, to be sure. :)
Thanks, Martin. I've written it up in prose on this blog post and discussed in in the podcast version: www.magneticmemorymethod.com/brain-exercises/ Hope this additional material helps clarify. :)
Sure thing. Take a 3 digit number, i.e. 477. Then add 3: 480. Then minus 7: 473. Now add 3: 476. Now minus 7... And so on. It's very good mental exercise. Is it clear now? Do you think you'll give it a try? :)
Thank you! I'll definitely try this. I just found your channel yesterday and I'm really excited to learn about these Memory techniques. I hope I'll learn a lot from you
Glad you are here and I look forward to seeing you on a live stream soon. Did you subscribe and click the bell? Also, for best results, please be sure to sub to my podcast: www.magneticmemorymethod.com/mmm-podcast/ There's a free course on my website too that you'll want to register for. Look forward to helping you further! :)
@@hunterxhunter529 Then when you get good at this one, you can try multiplying the minuses and pluses to make it more difficult. Like plus 3 three times then minus 7 seven times. i.e: 477 *+ 3* -------------- 480 *+ 3* -------------- 483 *+ 3* -------------- 486 *- 7* -------------- 479 *- 7* ------------- 472 *- 7* -------------- 465 *- 7* -------------- 458 *- 7* -------------- 451 *- 7* -------------- 444 *- 7* --------------- 437
Since photographic memory has not been shown to exist, it's unlikely to be that. Learning the techniques and practicing them is almost always the distinguishing factor. :-)
Apologies if anything came off as downgrading others. I don't find much use in denying that there are some questionable memory and brain exercise advice out there. Comparison is a tool of human comprehension that is much needed, and I shall do my best to refine its application. Thanks for raising your concern. :)
I'm glad you're interested in the Memory Palace, Sandip. Please take my free course. It will help you learn all about it: www.magneticmemorymethod.com/brain-exercises/
Jordan Peterson said working memory is the equivalent to IQ would you agree? The mind palace basically improves all forms of memory and these true brain exercises are different from brain game exercises these exercises translate over to mind palaces and memory techniques and focus and just awareness of your environment on a higher level it truly changes spacial memory on every level all of this together is essentially IQ because it would literally improve everything in your life not just one skills et and things like the memory wheel as well can literally improve decision making and just things like deductions on people, and mind maps very literally increase creativity if you combine all of these techniques with proper diet exercise and maybe some healthy good nootropics your brain has no choice but to change wouldn't that exactly correlate to a true intelligence change? Maybe it won't correlate fully to fluid IQ but your general IQ? Absolutely your performance will inevitably increase and that's what matters you will have a huge speed advantage in learning the issue is people look at the techniques individually but what happens when a person combined a multitude of techniques like what I described the techniques the human calculator guy does and more and then this person learns a ridiculous amount of practical information isn't that true performance increase? Especially if this person couldn't do any of those things before? They couldn't even read a page in a book and now they could memorize the main points of the book and comprehend it with a 90% accuracy and they could read it substantially faster if they needed to please get in contact with Jordan peterson and ask him about this explain to him these techniques all in conjunction is the answer to raising IQ and yes brain games are simply not the answer like he has stated, and the techniques individually are not the answer necessarily either but all of it together I'm a concrete powerful system that is almost unconscious is forsure the answer anybody can learn this and improve at ridiculous levels.
I have remembered a lot of mineral names and their composition using memory palace but sometimes I forget them should I write from which location I have remembered it for memorising it in long term memory As you have suggested to make an Excel document for it in a video . Are there any other methods for making it remember for long term memory?
Thanks for this post. One of the other methods is rote learner, but I don't recommend it. The Memory Palace is a means of gathering associations, but there are other means of doing so. I just don't focus on those other means because they're not particularly interesting or nearly as effective.
I have diabetes I am having a hard time memorizing things at my work place I keep forgetting after people just explain things to me . I have to write everything down when my coworker explain to me. I hear what they say but I forget in 1 second. I really hate my brain. 😡
Sorry to hear about your diabetes. That must be tough. I think if you add some memory training to these exercises, you should be able to see some improvements quite quickly. Is that an option for you? There's a free course on my website with many more. :-)

First, please see a doctor to rule out any cognition issues from your medications.
Then, to lear the Memory Palace better, make sure to complete a course that takes you thoroughly through it. You might want to take several so you have the fullest possible perspective.
Hope this helps! :-)
you're awesome thank you
Thanks for your post, Claudia.
Do you find any of these exercises particularly appealing to start working with? :-)
You are amazing.
Thanks for the kind words! :-)
Love you sir!!
Thanks! :-)
Which of these brain exercises interests you the most?
Recently came across your channle and this is quite useful thanks
Glad it was helpful! What are you currently memorizing?
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM Biology terminology currently as well as English literature terms
Challenging and fun topic!
Good one Anthony
Thanks for checking it out.
Do you do brain exercises often?
It is very cool thanks
Glad you like this video, Anita. Thanks for letting us know.
Which of these brain exercises do you like the best? :)
You are the best
🙏
I didn’t quite grasp the metronome exercise. What do you actually do between the beats or covering those beats? Is the aim to concentrate on something without giving in to distraction?
Thanks, Anthony.
The goal is to cover the beat. What one does between the beats is to focus on the goal of covering the beat.
It's not easy and makes for a great brain workout. Extend the time between beats for as long as you can to really stretch your focus and concentration.
Does this way of looking at it make sense?
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM what does “cover” the beat mean? I understand that this exercise will happen between beats, and you can aim to extend the length between beats.
But what do you do when you cover it? I don’t understand that part. Is it listen to the beat? Hold your breath? Concentrate on one idea?
Snap or clap to "cover" the beat.
Then, during the silence, anticipate when it will come and cover it with the sound of your clapping or snapping.
I'll have to review the video to see if I've been unclear. Historically, this is one of the most popular of the exercises I've shared, and I want to make sure it's clear to as many people as possible.
Is there any specific wording you would add to how I explain it in the video so this is clearer?
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM yes. The word “cover” could be understood as a metaphor, or have other nuances.
So, even explaining the “clap” or “snap your fingers”, or even “silently have a bet with yourself of when exactly the beat will happen”, that would COVER the problem I had understanding it in the initial video.
It’s a great exercise. I’m going to try it with my children.
Glad that way of explaining it helps it. I guess it's a common thing amongst musicians and I was in tunnel vision...
Thanks for helping me clarify it! :-)
I have both a Shultz table and a synesthesia app - would you say that the same applies in so far as return of investment vs in game skill?
I would have to consider more details based on a holistic picture of your current goals relative to your skills.
Hi Anthony I saw your video i am really interested to know how you can boost up short term memory loss or visual memory
Thanks for checking this out, Fostin.
I have a live stream replay about short term memory here: ruclips.net/video/ize_i_7TcuM/видео.html
Please stay tuned for a formal video version coming soon.
Thanks for your post and hope to see another from you in the near future! :)
you have to participate the memory championship
I have been to a memory competition and did pretty well. It's not really that interesting to me, however. I'd rather focus on language learning.
Do you compete yourself?
Learning juggling on my pomodoro breaks rn
Fantastic. I love juggling and was just doing some the other day.
I like more repeats in mind because I want improve my English speaking thanks
Excellent to hear. Do you have any specific goals with English in terms of what you want to be able to speak about? :)
After observing when you have to remember it I mean after how much time I should remember it.
Thanks for your question.
What kinds of info do you need to remember? That will help answer the time question because not all info is equally complex.
No with reference to this video like when I observe four things in person or four things in car which I did today...after how much time i should test my memory
Now I understand. Thank you.
I would suggest practicing and testing in 5-10 minute sessions. Once a day should be fine, but you can certainly get more from a variety of sessions spaced out over time.
Experimentation and exploration are the key.
Awesome video
Thanks for checking it out.
Have you worked with any of the exercises yet?
Let the subtitule in your videos i don't speak good english and the subtitule help me to understand your podcasts THANK YOU
There should be automatically generated English subtitles. What is your mother tongue? Maybe someone in the community can help?
What was the second method again?
Is this a memory test? ;)
I've recently added a bunch more here:
www.magneticmemorymethod.com/brain-exercises/
You can read them there to refresh your memory and learn some more. :-)
Good solution
Thanks for checking this out. Have you been doing many brain exercises lately?
Marvellous
Thanks for checking it out and saying so.
Have you practiced any so far?
Thank you sir
You're very welcome. Which of these brain exercises are you going to try? :-)
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM Probably all of them😂
Great!
Hello, thanks for the informations, I would like to know what's your opinion in the game 2n-back, obviously played at a higher level, (above 5n back), limiting subvocalization? PS I tried to look on the comments but I don't found anyone mentioning it. Thanks again
I personally think it’s a waste of time and cannot fathom why it would help anyone given that it breaks the four rules of brain exercise.
Give this a try instead:

Can someone explain the add 3 minus 7 please? Or give me examples. I kind of understood it. But I want to make sure I am doing it right.
Thanks for your post.
It's as described: pick a 3 digit number. Add 3 and minus 7, accurately tracking your progress and accuracy for as long as you can.
Give it a go with pen and pencil first if you struggle to do it in your mind. :-)
Your are awesome 😊👍
Thanks for your kind words!
Which of these brain exercises do you like the most?
I have suffered around 10 strokes since August so my memory has been terrible.
Hope these exercises help you on your path towards exceptional memory. 🙏
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM I am working on it.
You've got this!
I'm learning to pay guitar and that includes learning music theory. Would that replace the exercises your talking about.
Thanks for this question, Jaap. I do not think "replace" is the right word, but certainly musicians do get a lot of similar exercise.
One thing to consider is the frame effect. For example, there was a study of hotel cleaners. Half were told that vacuuming, etc. was exercise more calories are burned when they take the stairs instead of the elevator (or something like this.) The other half were just told to take the stairs.
Those who were told their work was "exercise" burned more calories and felt fitter than those who didn't.
I don't know for sure, but perhaps there are people who could be getting great brain exercise as musicians, but aren't because they don't think of it as brain exercise.
But at the end of the day, most of the brain exercises on my full website page are not related to music so I can't see how being a musician would get one close.
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM Thanks!
My pleasure. Anything else I can do to help you out? :-)
Brain games for that brain gainz
Yes, and wonderfully how they deliver.
so add 3 3 times and then minus 7 7 times.. .. so if I just minus 40 from the number is not doing the same work to the brain I guess?
You could try that, Newton, but I don't think you would be getting the same brain exercise. But if you started with a 6 or 7 digit number and played plus/minus with that using 4 and 5 digit numbers, that would be a great workout, to be sure. :)
Vídeo muito bom
Obrigado! :)
Maravilhosas dicas
Thanks for amazing video!
I didn't quite understand the 'add 3, minus 7 game'.
If you could explain it here, it would be awesome
Thanks, Martin.
I've written it up in prose on this blog post and discussed in in the podcast version:
www.magneticmemorymethod.com/brain-exercises/
Hope this additional material helps clarify. :)
Thank you so very much:)!
My pleasure. Do you think you'll give any of these exercises a try? :)
Yes, for sure thanks!
Awesome - enjoy and keep us posted on progress and questions. Hope to see you on a live stream soon! :)
Please add the translation to video
What language do you need?
I don't quite understand the ADD 3, MINUS 7 game. Sorry I'm a bit slow when it comes to math. Can you please give an example
Sure thing.
Take a 3 digit number, i.e. 477.
Then add 3: 480.
Then minus 7: 473.
Now add 3: 476.
Now minus 7...
And so on. It's very good mental exercise.
Is it clear now? Do you think you'll give it a try? :)
Thank you! I'll definitely try this. I just found your channel yesterday and I'm really excited to learn about these Memory techniques. I hope I'll learn a lot from you
Glad you are here and I look forward to seeing you on a live stream soon. Did you subscribe and click the bell?

@@hunterxhunter529 Then when you get good at this one, you can try multiplying the minuses and pluses to make it more difficult.
Like plus 3 three times then minus 7 seven times.
i.e:
477
*+ 3*
--------------
480
*+ 3*
--------------
483
*+ 3*
--------------
486
*- 7*
--------------
479
*- 7*
-------------
472
*- 7*
--------------
465
*- 7*
--------------
458
*- 7*
--------------
451
*- 7*
--------------
444
*- 7*

This is me doing push ups with my brain cells inside my skull
😜
I am a student 17 years old can i do this?
If in doubt, please ask your parents to watch the video first and discuss it with them.
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM ok sir
:-)
Sir, for good memory is it gifted or train because some people say that he gifted with the photograph memory.
Since photographic memory has not been shown to exist, it's unlikely to be that. Learning the techniques and practicing them is almost always the distinguishing factor. :-)
Cool
🙏
May be metronome beats and memory palace. And also repeating the words heard ......
Solid ideas - thanks!
if your way is the best why bother downgrading others .NEVER a good idea,just share,don't compare.
Apologies if anything came off as downgrading others. I don't find much use in denying that there are some questionable memory and brain exercise advice out there.
Comparison is a tool of human comprehension that is much needed, and I shall do my best to refine its application. Thanks for raising your concern. :)
good vdo, bt dint understand memory palace
I'm glad you're interested in the Memory Palace, Sandip.
Please take my free course. It will help you learn all about it:

ओके
Great. Please let me know if you have any questions. :)
Anthony Metivier : I'll go thru n den'll contact 2 u, thnx
All good. Enjoy the process!
Jordan Peterson said working memory is the equivalent to IQ would you agree? The mind palace basically improves all forms of memory and these true brain exercises are different from brain game exercises these exercises translate over to mind palaces and memory techniques and focus and just awareness of your environment on a higher level it truly changes spacial memory on every level all of this together is essentially IQ because it would literally improve everything in your life not just one skills et and things like the memory wheel as well can literally improve decision making and just things like deductions on people, and mind maps very literally increase creativity if you combine all of these techniques with proper diet exercise and maybe some healthy good nootropics your brain has no choice but to change wouldn't that exactly correlate to a true intelligence change? Maybe it won't correlate fully to fluid IQ but your general IQ? Absolutely your performance will inevitably increase and that's what matters you will have a huge speed advantage in learning the issue is people look at the techniques individually but what happens when a person combined a multitude of techniques like what I described the techniques the human calculator guy does and more and then this person learns a ridiculous amount of practical information isn't that true performance increase? Especially if this person couldn't do any of those things before? They couldn't even read a page in a book and now they could memorize the main points of the book and comprehend it with a 90% accuracy and they could read it substantially faster if they needed to please get in contact with Jordan peterson and ask him about this explain to him these techniques all in conjunction is the answer to raising IQ and yes brain games are simply not the answer like he has stated, and the techniques individually are not the answer necessarily either but all of it together I'm a concrete powerful system that is almost unconscious is forsure the answer anybody can learn this and improve at ridiculous levels.
Here are my current thoughts on IQ:
ruclips.net/video/zXl_s6wnmak/видео.html
I have remembered a lot of mineral names and their composition using memory palace but sometimes I forget them should I write from which location I have remembered it for memorising it in long term memory
As you have suggested to make an Excel document for it in a video .
Are there any other methods for making it remember for long term memory?
Thanks for this post.
One of the other methods is rote learner, but I don't recommend it.
The Memory Palace is a means of gathering associations, but there are other means of doing so. I just don't focus on those other means because they're not particularly interesting or nearly as effective.
May brain is in able to remember things that I have learned
Are you interested in learning to use memory techniques to help make a positive change? That's what we focus on helping people do here. :-)
I have diabetes I am having a hard time memorizing things at my work place I keep forgetting after people just explain things to me . I have to write everything down when my coworker explain to me. I hear what they say but I forget in 1 second. I really hate my brain. 😡
Sorry to hear about your diabetes. That must be tough.
I think if you add some memory training to these exercises, you should be able to see some improvements quite quickly. Is that an option for you? There's a free course on my website with many more. :-)
so is he Nick Swardson in a disguise??
What makes you think so?
@@AnthonyMetivierMMM my eyes and ears
