Why Bank Balances Drop
Memory fades fast. According to Ebbinghaus's Forgetting Curve, we lose up to 70% of new information within days, unless we reinforce it. No regular deposits? Your mental wealth evaporates!
Build a Strong Portfolio
Every time you retrieve knowledge, your brain strengthens its neural connections. This "use it or lose it" principle means recall is not just testing - it's training.
Smart Investments:
• Active Recall
Don't just reread. Close this tab and summarize what you just learned. Can't remember? That's the point. Wrestling with retrieval, builds stronger, lasting memory.
• Spaced Repetition
Review at spaced intervals - 1 day, 1 week, 1 month. Tools like Anki help you sync with your brain's natural forgetting rhythm. Each review is like adding interest to your memory balance.
• Mnemonics
Patterns like "VIBGYOR" for rainbow colors, or "My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nachos" for planets, stick better than plain facts. [Click here to know more about Mnemonics.]
• Sleep = Savings
Memory consolidation happens during sleep. Aim for 7–8 hours. That's when your brain processes and transfers memories from temporary to permanent storage.
Make Your First Deposit
