y strategy is guaranteed to raise your class rank - one-full-grade. Your exam scores will improve up to 37%, and your opportunity for a scholarship doubles. Works for executives too. Why? Its because Memory is Everything. Its the secret to academic success, right? V-A-K V stands for Vision, you have to see what you want to remember. A stands for Auditory, you must hear the word or phrase you want to recall. K stands for Kinesthetic, a fancy name for your sense of touch, (feeling, tactile). When you use a pen or type with your word-processor, you activate your sense of touch to double your memory, you must feel the word or phrase. Handy-Hand Strategy 1. If you are a lefty, use the index-finger of your left-hand to trace the word or phrase you want to permanently remember in the palm of your right-hand. For righties, use your right-index-finger to trace in the palm of your left-hand. 2. Before we start we must mentally announce our memory intention, and get the cooperation of your Inner-Child. Who is he/she? Another name is your Self-Talk, Stream-of-Consciousness, Internal-Dialogue, and Subvocalization. Your Inner-Child is the still, small voice within - that you hear mentally when you are reading. When you ask yourself, Should I take an umbrella?, who are you talking to? Its your Inner-Child that sends you an answer (intuition). 3. Heres what you do. Close your eyes and instantly go into Alpha (relaxation). I want to talk to my Inner-Child (call it by your nick-name or Kiddo). We are going to play a little game. Help me. I want to permanently remember this word (phrase). Please play with me. Thats all there is to it. You have created Attention-Interest-Desire in your own brain. Now we use V-A-K to make Handy-Hand work. You have the strength of your three-power senses for long-term memory. 4. Example: Occums Razor I just cannot remember the phrase Occums Razor, the law of parsimony. It refers to using the simplest approach Keep-It-Simple-Stupid. We have the help of our Inner-Child, but he/she needs clues to remember. It comes from using multi-senses.

a. Mentally say in your mind, Occums Razor three-times (3x). If you are alone you can say the two-words out-loud 3x. Repeat the words with feeling, like you intend to learn them permanently. Your intention to remember - is everything. b. Notice that whether you repeat the two-words mentally or aloud, you involve Your sense of hearing Auditory sense. You hear - Occums Razor (3x). c. Trace the two-words, Occums Razor in the palm of your passive hand using your dominant index-finger. So What? You are using your Visual Sense by seeing the words asyou trace them. You see them in your minds eye and with your physical Visual Cortex. d. Tracing the words Occums Razor in you other hand is a physical act that triggers your powerful sense of touch (kinesthetic). You feel yourself tracing the words to be memorized. Thats Kinesthetic. e. Ask yourself (Inner-Child), Kiddo, what does Occums Razor remind me of? What does it sound like? What pictures (mental-images) come into my mind when I think of the two-words Occums Razor? Wait two-seconds for an answer, it will come immediately. I get a mental-image of of my Gillette Fusion Razor. I use it daily, and see myself shaving with the Razor. Thats all I need because I am linking something new, Occums Razor, with Something old in my long-term memory. Gillette Razor to Occums Razor, right? What about a rhyme for Occum? Dock-em, Hock-em, Lock-em, and Sock-Em. The last one is very visual, I see a prize-fight and a lot of Rock-Em and Sock-Em. Okay, I repeat 3x the rhythm reminder for Occum. Sock-Em, Sock-Em, Sock-Em. Thats baby-easy, I can visualize-mentally, and even feel Sock-Em. Now I link them together, Sock-Em, Occum!. Now I add Razor, my own Gillette razor, the one I shave with daily. Fact: I will never forget the two-words, Occums Razor. f. Last thing, I must show my appreciation to my Inner-Child. Thanks for playing the word-game with me. Is there anything I can do for you? A picture of a Hershey candy-bar comes to mind. How about a diet Pepsi, or a sweet fruit, I want to lose five-pounds? I hear the still, small voice echo, OK.
