Unlock Your Inner Genius With These Simple Tricks

Memorize People's Names

One of the most difficult parts of being a social creature is establishing new relationships with other social creatures. As a person, you have a responsibility to learn the names of the people around you. Tragic, we know. However, if you create pneumonic devices and draw outside associations with individuals to remember their name, you'll become better at remembering names by proxy. This takes a little practice to get used to, but when you establish this habit, you'll use it for the rest of your life.
