Visualization & Association

Memory improves when recall has strong cues. Visualization turns abstract information into concrete sensory material. Association links that material into structures you can traverse: chains, scenes, and substitutions that feel obvious in the moment of recall.

Quick Rule

If the cue feels normal, it’s easy to forget. Make it specific, exaggerated, and sensory.

Pages

Vivid Imagery

Turn abstract information into striking images; unusual and emotional cues recall better.

Linking

Create a chain of associations so recalling one item triggers the next.

Substitution

Replace unfamiliar ideas with familiar images or sounds to make them easier to store and retrieve.
