One of my biggest fears that one day when i'll search for your videos I won't be able to find one. Please never ever give up! We appreciate you! Thanks a lot! Greetings from Uzbekistan!

Amazing video! 💚 One of the reasons I love your videos because you make it fun, as you said memory palace technique is to make hard things fun not frustrating, which is i like it that way. I believe Everything has a reason, we were born so there's gotta be a reason, you were born because there was a reason and the reason is obviously saving people's life, we really appreciate it. Thanks for your amazing advices,videos. I thought it would be too hard to watch your video or use the memory palace technique, I'm still learning though , I'm still new. despite that i knew a little about memory palace technique , last year one of my friends explained it a little to me. I kinda used it on the wrong way but it was still useful, it is now too.

[@boglandmoss]

Hello Anthony! I've recently gotten into memory training and have read both "the memory book" by Harry Lorayne and Jerry Lucas, and "memory craft" by Lynne Kelly. The former was really useful as an introduction to using striking images, substituting words, the link method, the peg system and the major system, and I have found success implementing said techniques for list based information. The latter was my first in depth exploration of the memory palace through the written word, among other techniques (visual alphabet, bestiary, etc). I tried to use the memory palace for learning countries, capitals and flags (I thought the memory palace the best method as it would allow me to layer on additional information at a later date), and due to the sheer number of countries I decided that I'd need an equivalently large area of space so I chose to use a route near to my house that I frequently walk. The problem I'm having isn't necessarily due to the large number of things to memorize, but rather the lack of novel and memorable objects along the route, it is primarily trees and plants. I've tried to combat this problem by using houses to mark every fifth country but along my walk through my mind I keep misremembering where I placed my images. Do you have any advice for a memory training beginner with this problem? Apologies for the large wall of text.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Advice one: Never apologize for writing at length. From whence did the disease of short content come? Does anyone know? Two: Layering is possible, but in my experience is best used selectively. Three: Keep studying and practicing. The sources you mention are great, but also missing many elements that the serious student of memory requires. 👍

[@boglandmoss]

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM What would you recommend as an alternative to layering information, we can use the example of a country, capital, flag and currency. Currently I am trying to create an image that binds together the country, capital and flag, and I will later try to add the currency and other information. Is there a better way of doing this? Thank you for the reply.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

I would suggest not "creating" images at all. This is where the hard work beings. Using Magnetic Imagery makes everything so much easier for many of us. "Layering" can be involved, but it's often not necessary. Sometimes "compounding" will be needed, however. In any case, I'll think about what you're working on and see about adding a tutorial on it to the MMM Masterclass.

[@Ash-bc8vw]

Since your path has mostly trees and no memorable things, I saw this video by world memory champion, he used a website which had 3D images of houses for sale. And you could walk through all the rooms, I used it once to remember things. And it worked. Doesn't necessarily have to be your own house. Get acquainted with the online 3D images of the house and you can use it. If I find the link to his video I'll share

[@slickwilly8180]

I am sold after watching this video!

[@fahd9649]

This is probably the second or third video I've watched here since I found the channel, but I'm really a big fan of you for a long time and you made me fall in love with Memory Palace😆 So I've been talking to a lot of people I know about it and trying to teach them but unfortunately there wasn't A lot of them are interested in that, so I found out that most people don't care about improving or training their brain😌 So I would be grateful if you can tell me a group chat on the social media with the same interests so that we can find or make good friends and share our thoughts with each other,or just talk And finally i want to say thank you for every thing you give and taught us

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Thanks so much for your comment. If you achieve your goals with these techniques, you'll probably be able to encourage at least a few others to try them too. We have group sessions each month in the MMM Mastermind. You can learn about joining this is you get the MMM Masterclass. Happy for you to join us!

[@zwebzz9685]

Past competitive memory standout Lance Tschirhart is extremely good at the linking method to the point he doesn’t need a palace. He said even with this skill level he still would always use a palace in tandem for competition.

Is it possible and stable enough for someone use a memory palace for some hook images that will be the firstin a sequence, the cue of an instance of the link method?

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

I'm not entirely sure what you mean. Can you say more and perhaps develop an example of the hook images and describe a goal you have in mind?

Wow Anthony, that was a dense session! Thank you for all the info and wisdom that you have put out there.

[@TheBigSavvyBoss]

Thanks Dr Metivier for all the awesome content you share! Always a delight listening to you👌. Do you have any video/recommendations on Dopamine reset and how to optimize your neurotransmitters for better motivation and drive and resilience? Also, how can one join your zoom call that you mentioned in the video towards the end?

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

There are all kinds of ways to manipulate dopamine, but I’m not sure about the reset part. I’ve been told that my book, The Victorious Mind is like a manual for maintaining tonic dopamine levels, however. In terms of the group sessions on Zoom, just join the MMM Masterclass and choose the Mastermind option during checkout. Let me know if you have further questions and I’ll get back to you a.s.a.p. 🙏

[@TheBigSavvyBoss]

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM Hey Anthony Yeah, I used a shortcut there 😅. I meant dopamine receptors reset. Basically, it is thought that the brain's dopamine receptors of us millennials and generation Z are heavily overloaded with dopamine rushes and are therefore desensitized. That's why most youngsters are feeling less motivated and tend to be "lazy" and not willing to sacrifice and endure for the sake of their goals etc. So basically what I was looking for in my previous comment is actually any pointers and recommendations you might have to regain the dopamine sensitivity. I just bought your book recently and I am at page 27, about to start the part II: Become the storm. And it looks like you gave me more incentives to go through the book faster. Btw, is there any chance I can get access to the "How to Stop Thinking" mini course that complements the book?

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Thanks for sharing this context. That's very helpful. I'll think about creating a video for this topic. In the meantime, there's a brain warm up video coming out later this week that you might find useful. And for now, some things to try are: 1. Only long form content. Long videos, not short ones. Long books during reading sessions, even if you use interleaving. Go for density. 2. Daily meditation. You can try all the different kinds I talk about in TVM and see if you can build up to the longer form I discuss. 3. Keep adding focus and concentration activities to your daily activity stack. Involve some movement, like tai chi or qigong, etc. Hope these pointers help out and stay tuned for more on this channel coming soon. In the meantime, thanks for reading TVM and just send me an email and I can probably get you setup with that mini-course. But really, that's just the short form content I'm suggesting now you avoid. Finish the book first, spend at least 90-days putting at least some of its ideas into action, and you might just find you have already stopped unwanted thoughts. Does this response help you out?

[@Mijn24]

Do you supplement? I’ve read some studies which suggest choline can optimize various cognitive faculties such as memory retention and recall, problem solving and attention as well as possibly mitigating the negative effects sleep deprivation has on memory

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

I eat a sufficient amount of eggs to keep my choline high, and sleep is definitely a key factor. But I have no particular knowledge of any supplement that does what memory techniques do.

[@Mijn24]

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM Would your memory be the same if you had not consumed so many eggs? I’m vegan, without supplementation I’m likely deficient That reminds me, I have to start the memory techniques of yours I’ve been receiving in my email

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Ultimately, I can't answer medical questions like this. I would suggest experimenting only in consultation with a medical professional you trust. But what I can say is that memory techniques usually help no matter what condition a person is in. If you've read The Victorious Mind, they have helped me through situations where I was (unfortunately) destroying my own health. Would the techniques have worked better if I were in better health? Perhaps. But it can't be known and it is ultimately not the role I am playing here. Memory techniques work period and if one learns to apply them, they will experience benefits. Health topics and supplementation are part of the mix, to be sure, but as I talk about in The Victorious Mind when going through my own health scenarios, to be considered very carefully and with help from professionals.
