5.0 out of 5 stars De-programming the "I forgot" or "I can't remember" attitude, July 11 2003
By 
Matthew (Eugene, OR, United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Develop a Super Memory... Auto-matically (Audio Cassette)
Have you ever re-introduced yourself to a person, and asked for their name again like: "Hi, i'm sorry i forgot your name". This tape shows you, and makes it clear, in no uncertain terms, that it is not your memory that is the problem. It is the lack of focus, and attention. The "affirmations", although admittedly quirky, are necesary in remembering the fact that you did not forget that persons name. You just weren't paying enough attention.

The audio tape is started with an introduction as to the purpose of the tape: To get you started in basic memorization, and attention focusing techniques. The "silly" background music during the affirmations is designed to trigger the right side of your brain, (as well as subconsciously help you to focus) so you can learn with your whole brain.

The tape will take you over the basics of the PEG memorization technique. (very effective in remembering lists) This tape will help you focus more clearly next time you talk to someone, or the next time you read a book you will be able to retain more information. It will help you remember names and long lists of things. IF you participate.

The memory is a "muscle" that needs excersize just like the rest of your body. I gave this 5 stars as it is the best introduction to basic list/name memorization techniques i have ever seen. The audio format provides a learning experience that no book can match.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible, Jan 22 2003

This review is from: Develop a Super Memory... Auto-matically (Audio Cassette)
The worst audio book ever. They repeat the 10 mins or so of affirmations 2-3 times on each side of the casette wasting any time they might have had to teach you something and the affirmations are not even that good.

4.0 out of 5 stars If you use it - it works, July 1 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Develop a Super Memory... Auto-matically (Audio Cassette)
For anyone that understands how the subconscious mind works they will understand that the "dopey" music is a method to bypass the critical factor, also call the analytical conscious mind.

If you purchase and listen to this tape alot as back ground music, your conscous mind will learn to ignore the suggestions that most unimportant, while keying in on the pertinent suggestions. You will get benefit - besides it's guaranteed!

2.0 out of 5 stars Terrible., July 28 2005
By J. Schneider "john_jps" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Develop a Super Memory... Auto-matically (Audio Cassette)
Consists, more than anything, of these extended "affirmations" where you're supposed to repeat phrases like "I have a great memory"... that's MOST of the entire cd.

Otherwise, they do mention some tips for trying to remember names, and do actually discuss a technique to use in trying to remember a list of items.

But hey... what if you have a JOB that requires you to be on top of myriad facts and concepts, formulas, etc... that are not arranged in neat little lists. My father-in-law can read engineering manuals that are boring as can be, and he can retain the info. This tape/cd is USELESS for providing hints at how to tackle stuff like that. Sure, it's great for parlor tricks: memorize names of people in an audience and develop the ability to memorize a list of anything the audience wants you to memorize... but nothing more.
