A person in the process of learning uses a lot of association. Learning isn't going to be good enough unless association is put to use.

A good example is to use a memorization technique called the snapshot technique. The snapshot technique is a mnemonic method which concentrates on improving your memory by using vivid pictures and imagination. Pretend you are visiting a friend for the very first time. He has given you a sketch of where his house is located but you haven't been there yet.

Your most reliable tool now is just your memory and imagination. Imagining what you could possibly see along the way or how landmarks could appear in your mind is a great form of memory exercise.

A downhill road, a pink house, huge stone slabs, and a huge tarpaulin

Try to map out the landmarks mentioned above in your thoughts. Imagine how each of them would look if you see them. Just by imagining how each of the landmarks look like, your memory already distinguishes the physical form of each and their order in the list.

Now apply the snapshot technique. Think of a downhill road as steep as a rollercoaster rail track. Imagine how high it is from where you are standing. Suddenly you see yourself moving fast down the road and as you approach the end of the track, you see the mouth (which is the door) of a pink monstrous house getting bigger and bigger. The image terrifies you and the only way to move out of the way of the monstrous house is to hold on to the huge slab of stones which you pass by. You held on to one huge stone, and noticed that there is a tarp floating overhead. You pulled the tarp so hard and threw it over the pink house.

By following the scene and keeping in mind the details included, you will not only have a near-perfect map going to a friend's house (as cited in the example) but you will also improve the way you memorize and store important information.

Try to create your very own snapshot scenario and see how well you'll be able to retain the items.

It is a well-known fact that mind rules over the body and at times we feel ill because we are depressed or generally feeling low.

In India a majority of people believe in some supernatural force, and that gives them the required support during difficult times. Most people prefer to go to their place of worship rather than go to a psychiatrist. Many cannot afford it. But that is not the only reason.

A deep faith in a kind super power can boost up confidence and life up spirits to a large extent.
