Thread: Train your memory, who wants to join?

No targets posted for a few days... sorry for that (I see people are doing well in posting their own targets, very good!)
Maybe there's someone who can post for me tomorrow, since I won't be online then...

Targets for Saturday, 8th of December

I'll do a thorough reality check the next time:

• I brush my teeth
• I feel something warm (errr, like a cup of tea or when you take a shower, hehe)
• I hear the wind blow
• I see a dog

Good luck to all!
Please report back how well you did.
Would be nice to discover a pattern, are you better in recognising a sound, or an action you perform? And what have you done or could you do to increase your success rate?

Oh yeah, its Saturday.... Feels like a Sunday.

Sara, I'll post them for tomorrow

Targets for Sunday, 9th of December

I'll do a thorough reality check the next time:

• I see a television
  
• I drink/eat something
  
• I see that 'peanut butter jelly time' banana
  
• I hear someone laugh
  

EDIT: Oh, sorry Kyhaar, missed your post somehow, I'll just use these as my own then.

No, its okay

Although I'm not so sure about that banana

Thanks for posting targets, Tommo!
It's good to see all those people involved in this exercise

I'm not really making progress over the last week. Keep getting 2/4 every day
Maybe some more focus on the targets while imprinting will help.

I see a television- FAILED
I drink/eat something- FAILED
I see that 'peanut butter jelly time' banana - COMPLETE
I hear someone laugh- Don't remember... so FAILED

1/4

I feel so bad

I passed them all except eating/drinking but I remembered like 10 second after finishing my drink, so I guess that's a fail anyway. 3/4

I only got 1/4 of my targets yesterday (monday), I took the ones from LaBerge, since I didn't have internet in the morning. Even without too much success on my targets, I have the feeling that this exercise helps. So, I'll just continue it for a little longer

Targets for Tuesday, 11th of December

I'll do a thorough reality check the next time:

• I see a traffic light (this was a difficult one, I remember)
  
• I hear a commercial on radio or TV
  
• I walk up or down stairs
  
• I handle money
  

Good luck everyone!

As this topic is growing (and I'm slacking on posting the new updates every morning) I guess there are enough targets to pick your own if I forget them one day

Didn't see tasks for Monday, so I reaatempted Sunday's

I see a television- Complete
I drink/eat something- FAILED
I see that 'peanut butter jelly time' banana - Complete
I hear someone laugh- Complete

3/4

well done Kyhaar!
I'll do these today and Report back later.

I turn on a light
I hear a commercial on radio or TV
I walk up or down stairs
I use a pencil


I just thought of something, is everyone doing reality checks like nose pinch, finger through palm etc? Because I think it would help to do something with the object because you are then increasing your awareness of your surroundings. For example, if you have the walk up or down stairs one and you get to the top of the stairs look back and see if it is still the same amount of steps. If you are doing the handling money, a reality check could be to see if the notes were still the same and not changing, like the numbers, colour etc.

I see a traffic light - Complete. Though I suppose it would be a lot harder if I was actually the one driving the car...
I hear a commercial on radio or TV - didn't hear/see any commercials
I walk up or down stairs - Complete.
I handle money - FAILED. We were doing this activity in class using pennies, and I didn't realize that counted as money until about a half hour later...

2/3. Not bad.
