The Ultimate Shortcuts To Remember People's Name


A name is the first thing you have to learn and
remember when you meet any person, particularly
for the first time.
Some are upset when those they think should
remember them fail to recall their names and one
of the reasons for this is because we tend to see
new faces every day. It could also be
embarrassing to ask people repeatedly what their
name is.
Many have fallen victim of not remembering even
the names of people they have met such persons
on more than 2 or more occasions. See
shortcuts to remembering people's name
below....

Strong desire.
Any wholesome desire begins to be turned into
action when a person makes a conscious
decision. If you want to remember the names of
people, then take this conscious decision. Stop
referring to the “bad memory.” Forgetting names
is not due to bad memory but to reluctance to
use it. It is a banal laziness. Every time when you
go to a meeting, a party, a festival, remember
your decision and it will help you.
Concentrate and be interested in it.
People easily remember what they see right in
front of them. However, if they get distracted, then
memory begins to fail. Therefore, you should
concentrate on two important things: the first
mention of the person’s name when meeting, and
formation of a person’s image. That is, you just
need not miss a name. If you have not heard it,
then ask again. Connect the name with a detailed
impression of the physical characteristics of a
person. Use all your senses to make a detailed
portrait of the person. Even the smell can help
you.

Name in the image.
The image, continuing the thought, is a strong
support to the process of remembering a name.
Your memory speaks the language of images,
especially when it comes to the same names. If
you have a very big problem with remembering,
you can print photos and attach stickers with
names to them. It looks a little maniacal, but the
result will not keep you waiting.

Repeat a name.
There is a simpler memorizing technique. When
you meet new people, repeat their names several
times in the head. In addition, include a name in
the conversation, this will improve the chances of
remembering the name and, at the same time,
make you look more friendly. Repetition is a
crucial thing in remembering, you could already
understand that in your student and school years
when almost all people boned up on the
information that hardly penetrated their brains.
Add the name to the phone’s “contacts.”
A record of the name will never fail. You can type
it even without a number. It will not be
superfluous to add also a little information about
the person: where you met, what was the reason
for the acquaintance, who this person is, what the
conversation was about. If you are dealing with a
big number of people, then the habit of adding
contacts will serve you well.
