How to Memorize a Textbook: A 10 Step Memory Palace Tutorial
Рет қаралды 209,367
4 жыл бұрынWant to know how to memorize a textbook?
Remembering more from books is a fun and easy skill to develop.
But, as with all things, a lot depends on your mindset, your setup and the clarity of your goals.
That’s why, in this video, you’ll learn how to:
• Correctly set your expectations of what the book will contain
• Understand why you need to read the book (or if you actually need to!)
• Quickly determine how much of the book you really need to read
• Make a dedicated Memory Palace system to memorize the parts you really need
• Learn how to take notes from a textbook onto index cards or flashcards, and
• Determine how much time you’ll need to practice the information you’ve memorized
You'll learn how to memorize verbatim too.
Plus, I'm giving you an example of how to memorize a formula, the kind you might come across in a math textbook.
Ultimately, what we're talking about when discussing textbook memorization is how to study books for maximum retention.
And retention is not necessarily memorization. It's important to understand that difference.
And the Memory Palace technique you'll discover in this video is designed to make sure that you know how to get the most out of your study time.
If you would like a simple and fun infographic to go with this post, it is downloadable and printable. I even have a pic of Magnetic Memory Method Familia Member Adolfo Artigas with his printout for you:
www.magneticmemorymethod.com/...
Please make sure you print it out and put it somewhere you can see it. That way, you'll remember this memory technique and won't forget to put it into action.
By the way, this video is an update of a previous How to Memorize Textbooks video that you might like for backup:

@AnthonyMetivierMMM 4 жыл бұрын
That's great about Puzo! These lists are certainly related to Memory Palaces and you could use them that way if you wanted. For example, the alphabet is itself a kind of spatial mnemonic because B is to the right of A and Y to the left of Z. I don't think most people would operate that way, however. The point of the alphabet list is to always have images that you can place in a Memory Palace. Does that make sense? :-)

Great video, Anthony! I've seen some of your videos and are very usefull to me. Thanks for what you are doing! I'll keep watching :) Here is the preread for you all: Ten step Memory Palace Tutorial to memorize a textbook: 0. Create a Memory Palace Network with at least 10 stations. 1. Examine the book. Look at the covers, introduction, conclusion, index and colophone page (Paratexts, Gerard Genette). 5 min plus reading the conclusion (you may even decide the book is not worth reading). Maybe even do a Picture Walk (Barbara Oakley, Learning How to Learn). 2. Make an equation. Based on the "principle of predetermination", decide how many pieces of information you want to retain from it, considering the length of the book and the purpose of the study. Usually, 3 to 5 pieces per chapter is enough. You need a plan to not feel overwhelmed. Focusing on a few key points will allow a lot of the surrounding information to stick to your memorized points. 3. Get index cards. Part of the "magnetic bibliomancy". 1st Index Card: Name of the author, title of the book and bibliographic information. 4. Find the big points an jot them down. You don't have to start with the first chapter. Choose the key points you want to memorize, write them down and number them, with some indication of where you are in the book (chapter, page...) in the bottom right corner. Relate actively to the information, engage and ask questions. Understand, don't try to memorize it. 5. Make use of your memory palace. Memorize "magnetically". 6. Create magnetic imagery to help you recall the info. Think of an image (visually appealing) that relates to the information of each index card. 7. Stick each magnetic image onto a memory palace station for recall. 8. Test yourself (for recall) before the teacher does. Practice by going from station to station. 9. Let the information grow into knowledge you can use over and over. Apply it in other situations. 10. Bonus! Save your knowledge for later. Empty your memory palace, but save the index cards, which you can use eventually to recreate your memory palace if needed. Maybe do summaries from the memory palace before emptying it and save them for later.

Maybe some people would then not watch them in their entirety, just as you explained in this video about books, so I understand if you don’t do it. Just letting you know how much I’d like that. On what I would like to see covered, I think I need first to see more so I don’t ask for things already made. I’m working on a mixture between a mind map, a memory palace and the Anki application, so maybe your thoughts on that would be great!

Thanks for your note about this. I have a 3-part series on mind mapping, and the third one talks about making mind maps that are Memory Palaces. Here's where to start with the first installment: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gq-Ye65zt9XdaHk.html About adding summaries to the descriptions, you're right about why this cannot be done, but there are at least 5 more reasons not to do this. One thing you can feel free to do is write summaries and post them in your descriptions. Some people do that, and it's good for your memory and learning process. Thanks again and look forward to your thoughts on the mind mapping series.

I like books on NLP. Currently I am reading Thinking on purpose by Richard Bandler, Rise of Magicks by Nora Roberts, The book of Secrets by Osho. I love your videos. They are very helpful. I read The Memory Palace by Lewis Smiles. I remember the story but sadly (embarrassing to say) I don't remember the names of all the plays of Shakespeare. This happens a lot. I remember the story because it's funny but its all a waste since I can't remember the main content. Can you give me some tips. Thank you.

This is great. I've done NLP certification so know Bandler well. Osho is interesting too, albeit sad too how it all turned out. The Memory Palace book you mention is interesting, but it fails people in the way you mention for a reason. The Magnetic Memory Method, when used fully and completely, solves all that. The tips I would give are: 1. Create well-formed Memory Palaces (not still stories) 2. Learn how to use Magnetic Imagery (with at least half of all the levels of association) 3. Use Recall Rehearsal There are more tips, but these should get you started. Have you completed the free course on my site?

I've been memorizing Japanese kanji and unknowingly using this technique. The key is to cut a kanji into radicals and memorize them with their individual meanings then combine them and learn a new meaning .... It's time consuming but works like a charm...❤

When you say it's time consuming, have you compared it against rote to derive a concrete comparison? I'm always curious when people say this because when they do time it, it's usually revealed that it's not time consuming at all by comparison. And it's that much faster when more understanding of the nuances of mnemonics are in play.

Some of the verbiage that I used was "to that end" I think I've heard you use that phrase in a few of your videos. That's an excellent way to start a new paragraph. While transitioning from the previous paragraph. Not only do you understand the human mind you're pretty good speaker.

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM absolutely, I love your statement in the video something to the effect; rarely do you have to memorize a whole book. One thing that is really help me read college textbooks; is for certain paragraphs I just read the first sentence. Particularly if I know there is not a high likelihood that the professor we'll have a proclivity not to touch on a certain subject based on that professors personality. Other verbiage that I really like from your videos. Is doing such and such will reduce cognitive load. As a matter of fact I have a dry erase board in front of my desk. And I just have an outline that this GED instructor gave on how to write a paper. So that reduces cognitive load for me and gets me started writing the paper. Another thing I'm so grateful for is voice typing on Google Documents. I'm actually a decent typist, but the speed that voice typing provides is sometimes invaluable; as it relates to just getting words down on the text. I hope you're well and enjoying life. My job is going good, it's wonderful that it's so close to home. It's actually within walking distance. That's the reason I stay there more than any other.

Wonderful about the walking distance to work. I have that too (inside the same home, as it happens, which is why I get out for walks daily). No one has to memorize a whole book, it's true, not even a scriptural text (in my view). The rule of redundancy guarantees it would never be as fruitful as memorizing just portions of it. One speed reading technique is indeed reading the first and last sentences of paragraphs. It can be useful, but in some cases, it's a trap. I think it's best used with caution. I'm not personally a fan of talking to computers, but many great authors were dictators, both to secretaries, recording machines and computers. My mentor dictates to computers and he's one of the best writers in the world. Like anything, if you practice it, great things will come of it. I've dictated a few things as well, but I find they never come out as well as when I type. I'm not sure why that is, but it's probably training effect. Plus... I just love typing. In the meantime, I've been carrying that great gift you sent through the mail. I haven't forgotten it, but keep it as a symbol of energy, generosity and connection. Thanks again. I see it often! :-)

Hi, I'm new to the memory palace system! Super exited, this seems very useful. I've got to check out step zero, so I'm not sure if this/these questions will be relevant: could I let something I know already super well function as a memory palace/could I relate new information to other information I know rather than doing a lot of imagery? Say I am trying to memorize something word for word that I already understand the concept to. Can the concept be a room in my mind, then the words live in the room? If this would work, and there are other sets of exact words that I need to know that deal with the same concept, could that group of words be doing something else in the same room? Also, what is the difference between knowledge, information, fact, truth, and wisdom? And what if the book I am trying to memorize is super long, do I just make a bunch of notecards? Does word association work?
@AnthonyMetivierMMM 3 жыл бұрын
Great to hear from you, Charley. Yes, this approach is very useful. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by having a concept be a room. But it sounds like something well worth experimenting with. The way I tend to do this is to have Memory Palaces charted out in advance and then group the information in different ways according to the goal. For example, this is how I used the technique to memorize a speech (based on a concept I already knew well): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/naimfql6nKfQfHk.html In terms of long books, the way I do it is just like in the video. I try to organize them by chapter and impose a limit on how much I gather. Of course, this limit doesn't mean that you can't go back and add more points later. Does this way of looking at things help you out?

Great video. I've been using memory palaces for some time with reasonable success and your channel has helped me understand why I'm sometimes not as successful. These tend to work for some books but my biggest challenge has always been how to study information dense sources such as a scientific textbooks or training booklets where there are potentially dozens of concepts, equations and derivations that need I need to be able to paraphrase for an exam. Is there a way to compress this information into a sensible sized palace or to add in details later once the framework is in place?
@AnthonyMetivierMMM 4 ай бұрын
Thanks for checking this out. Yes, there are ways to compress info. I call it the principle of compounding in the MMM Masterclass. There are a few ways to use it depending on the exact nature of the information in question. There's also making sure that you have proper spaced repetition in play, as discussed here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aKmkm6iQs8fUmps.html It's related to compression and compounding, and in some cases will be a lot better. Again, it really comes down to the exact goal and the nature of the information you want to commit to long-term memory. If it's just short-term memorization, then there will be yet other considerations that basically boil down to just the Memory Palace and Magnetic Imagery.

Hello, Anthony! Thank you for the great material, I'll surely use it when studying next textbook. I just wanted to ask a question: Do you know many people who create index cards in apps on the phone or computer? Is it really effective for them to use such note-taking apps as Notion or something similar? Can it be compared to real index cards? I would love to take notes on real cards, but I can't afford myself being in the situation when there will be so many cards just laying in one place in my parents house, for example. I travel quite a lot and have several places of my long stay, so there's no opportunity to look through cards on rainy days. Today there's a serious tendency towards using those digital methods, but I know the question lays in quality. And for me, it's unanswered. What do you think about it?
@AnthonyMetivierMMM 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for this. A few things to consider: 1) All of my dissertation research was on cards and fit inside of one small shoebox - all of the core information accessible inside of my mind because they were properly linked with Memory Palaces. I do not believe one should avoid having cards based on the false premise that people cannot "afford" this situation. Is it all too easy to see how one cannot afford to have information that has not been remembered scattered or even well-organized into apps. 2) People will come up with reasons and excuses for why they can't look at their digital "cards." Not only that, the devices themselves will constantly bombard you with those excuses in an environment where our group addition to dopamine spikes will be incredibly hard to resist. Objections to this point tend to be pretty thin, but I'm open to hearing them. 3) I do not think there's a serious tendency towards digital methods in quite the way you do. Rather, I think we should characterize the permanent tendency throughout history for people to relegate anything that takes effort to things that appear easy and effortless. Throughout history there have been endless ways for people to confuse activity with accomplishment. 4) This means that using cards is also not necessarily the answer because whether they are digital or physical, they must be used in accordance with the laws that govern memory. For more on this, please see: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i9NphpmFqby0YI0.html And: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rLJohcuUzLaVdqs.html Do these ways of looking at the issue help you out?

Hey Anthony! I just chanced upon your channel and it's JUST Freakin Awesome! Being a Sherlock fan himself, I have always tried to implement his unorthodox methods as a student to improve my everyday life but I still need to get a good foothold over the mind palace technique. I plan on getting in Med School and I have to study Physics, Maths, Chemistry, and Biology (Just as the other guy requested wanted to in your video). I just want to get started with creating a memory palace quickly, but my question is how can I develop my imagery to fast levels of visualizing pieces of information and encode or implant them into the loci of my memory palace? Also, do we need to write the images and actions in flashcards and review them? Also when is the best time to review information stored in a mind palace, before the night's sleep or at dawn? It would be a great help if you could answer these questions along with some extra tips as my medical entrance exam is just approaching in 6 months and I need to memorise around 100 chapters across these 3 subjects (Not verbatim of course, except formulae)
@AnthonyMetivierMMM 2 жыл бұрын
Great questions. We develop our Magnetic Imagery by completing various exercises. A lot of people get hung up on how to encode or implant or connect information onto loci or into Memory Palaces. I think this comes from misunderstanding the core technique. If you develop the Memory Palace correctly and use your Magnetic Imagery within it appropriately, the process itself does the connecting. (Though "connecting" is not really the best word in my experience. I prefer "Magnetic Weaving.") The best time to review is often and based on your skills with the techniques, noting that there are some "before bed" benefits seen in the research depending on your age. Sleep consolidation is not a given, however, so the true memory master doesn't rely on it. Does this way of looking at things help? :-)

I tried going to a supermarket today just to see whether it's a viable option or not but there's just simply too much to memorise.

Do you know the Japanese principle of Genchi Genbutsu? If not, look it up and apply it, perhaps mixed with Kaizen. As for other techniques, I'd have to spend some time learning more about what you're doing and how critical your performance is in that realm. Perhaps you might ask your manager(s) about hiring a memory expert to consult with so I can answer from specifics rather than generalities. A huge problem with answering these questions is that either the individual student takes the initiative to figure it out based on specifics, or someone is brought in to actually memorize some of the information and then demonstrate to the specific people how it can be done and give them exercises that ensure it's all fun and easy for them.

I haven't looked at any material related to rocket propulsion, but I don't see why not. If it can be expressed in words, numbers or symbols, memory techniques will help.

If I'd need to memorize a formula for e.g. physics I'd would check on the dimensional analysis so that the units will work out in both sides of the equation... Nevertheless, I use Buzan's mind map whenever I have to learn a lecture or speech, I strongly recommended it indeed.Thank you for the video!

Hey, four minutes, this isnt for school, but for myself, I'd like to memorize large portions of texts, like lets say shakespeare, Id love to be able to memorize his sonnets
@AnthonyMetivierMMM 3 жыл бұрын
Great goal. Memorizing sonnets is fun. The trick is to know how to memorize individual words in a Memory Palace. From there, you just keep memorizing the words, one by one. It's not a sonnet, but I recently did that to deliver this live talk from memory with some quotes and foreign language elements: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/odykjM2V18-3oIE.html It's fun and easy! :-)

Hey@@AnthonyMetivierMMM , I just checked out the video you linked and I'm really impressed by what you had to say. Every time you open your mouth I can hear elements of scripture pouring forth, it's really exciting. "You can't change others but you can change you" carries the principle of removing the log from our own eye before helping another (Matthew 7:5) Your advice for taking our thoughts of ourselves and transforming them to kind thoughts for others is a direct parallel of Philipians 2:3 "Do nothing from vainglory, but in humility honour others above yourself" And your general, main point of the talk, assessing every thought and it's helpfulness rings true. "take every thought captive and teach it to obey Christ [love]. Thank you again for giving of yourself to help others

Thanks for the great video, Anthony! How would you use this method to memorize 1400 facts instead of 30? I have 14 Chapters and need to memorize 100 facts from each. Does it mean that I have to create 14 palaces that hold 100 stations each? And if yes, how does one remember 14 mental trips inside them that have 100 stops?
@AnthonyMetivierMMM Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your question about this. When you dive deeper into this technique, you'll find principles that allow you to scale in different ways. But the important thing is to dive in and get started. Because if you can't memorize 4 facts reliably, it's not going to be possible to memorize 1400 no matter how you approach it. At least, that's how it seems to me after a decade of teaching these skills. If you want to hang out tomorrow, I'll be in the chat when this new video launches: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lZl-ZcxomLKvpGQ.html You can set a reminder there. Or just follow-up here if you have any further questions.

Hi! What if I have to memorize law codals verbatim? Should I use same technique? or is there any better technique?
@AnthonyMetivierMMM 4 жыл бұрын
"Better" is a tricky consideration. I would suggest you take my free course and then get started small. There are endless "better" techniques, but without a solid foundational grounding, it's unlikely most people will develop the skills to understand them, let alone use them. In my full training, I explain verbatim, but again, be willing to start small. That's how "better" unfolds for just about everyone. Hope this helps.

And i have arranged them in sequence with the help of number-shape system & it works fine for me..so i wanted to ask is it effective? And Some tips that can help me make the info more magnetic? I am practicing your C-U-R-E memory palace training method to master memory palace. Thanks for your efforts!!

Anthony Metivier well currently i can recall everything i have placed there. Have not yet used all loci yet. I have memorized pi 100 digits with palace and major system in cunjunction can easily recall it. All prime ministers of my country, including their seat taking date. Important days of my country. Largest things of my country. And some important info from book, about content from 5 1st chapters. Just the important info not whole chaps. I used your method i wanted to memorize them ... only 30 points from book. So far it has been a week but i can recall them fairly easily, i guess i visualised efficiently? Or maybe it hasn't been long enough to get them blurry?

Never got the whole obsession with memorizing verbatim. Language in textbooks is just a vessel for transmitting ideas, with the majority of them offering multiple explanations for didactic purposes.

There is certainly a part of the brain that triggers "scarcity" mindset in some more than others. People also face certain social pressures. Luckily there are ways to deal with both so that all have a chance to focus on what matters.
@willreynolds7211 2 жыл бұрын
I come from a tradition that needs every word to be exact. There is a saying "letter perfect, word flawed". If reading catechism or orally passing on lessons, it is very important that the specific words are passed on to continue on the exact message. Think about the phone game. If the message does not remain consistent, the first thing that is lost is precise context, the next is the entire message. By the end of the game, even with a few people across a small amount of time, the message if often completely different. Imagine hundreds or thousands of years of this effect.

Great video. I need to memorize like 100 different policies and SOGs for a promotional exam. What would be the best way to study this material. They are average 3-4 pages each….
@AnthonyMetivierMMM Жыл бұрын
Thanks for checking this out. I'm not sure what the policies look like or what SOGs are. But generally, most information needs to be broken down and encoded in one form or another. The approach I teach involves mnemonic associations and Memory Palace, with each practitioner needing to find out how that applies to their particular information type. There are tends of thousands of examples all over the Internet, but they are only marginally helpful. When a person is ready to learn how to create their own mnemonics, they will know how to contend with the information they're dealing with. Please shout out if you have further questions and I'll get back to you a.s.a.p.

Hi Metivier, thank you for your amazing contribution to all those want to be lifelong effective learner. It drastically changed the way I read, note and absorbe. I have a both suggestion and request. I think if you posted a video in which you are memorizing& studying the one chapter of the book by applying the steps that you tell us in this video, from button up, that would be extremely helpful. We need more real examples and application, for example in this video we have a few like: Gerard genette, and his push to words wants to go out. All the advices are perfect but when it comes to apply by ourselves, it is getting harder which can be solved by seeing your real routine and application
