Unraveling the Mystery of Memory: Ebbinghaus's Forgetting Curve and Mind Model Playing Cards Help You Grow and Leap
In the long journey of life, memory is like a treasure trove, cherishing our wisdom and experience. However, this treasure trove is not impregnable, and the treasures in memory tend to fade away over time. In order to protect this treasure trove, we need to master the art of memory so that the light of knowledge will never be extinguished.
1. Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve: The Guardian of Memory
The Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve reveals the subtle relationship between memory and time. It tells us that memory is not static, but follows a process of exponential decay. After learning something new, our brains quickly forget most of the information, and only a small part of it can be converted into long-term memory. However, it is this part of long-term memory that forms the cornerstone of our wisdom.
So, how can we fight forgetting and protect our treasure trove of memories? The answer is to increase the frequency of memory and expand the dimension of learning. By repeatedly exposing ourselves to the same information, we can allow our brain to gradually convert it into long-term memory.
At the heart of this approach is repetition, as the ancients said, "to learn from the past". When learning new knowledge, we should not only review and review it repeatedly, but also link it with existing knowledge to form a knowledge network.
In addition to increasing the frequency of memory, it is equally important to expand the dimension of learning. Contextual learning, alternating learning, and retrospective testing are three effective methods. Contextual learning emphasizes the combination of knowledge with practical problems, making learning more targeted and practical.
For example, when studying history, we can combine historical context and biographies to deepen our understanding; When studying science, we can observe experimental phenomena and manipulate experiments to deepen our impressions. Alternate learning encourages us to constantly switch between learning content and methods to avoid fatigue and boredom caused by a single learning mode.
For example, when learning mathematics, we can alternate activities such as problem solving, explanation, and discussion; When learning a language, we can use a combination of listening, speaking, reading, writing, and other ways. A retrospective test is a way to regularly check and consolidate memory, which can help us find forgotten parts and remedy them in time.
For example, when learning English words, we can take word tests regularly to test the memory effect; When learning about historical events, we can regularly review and compare the connections and influences between different events to deepen our memory.
Second, the thinking model playing card method: a weapon for multi-dimensional memory
In addition to the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve, the mind model poker method is also an effective memory tool. It helps us understand and apply various mental models more deeply by combining them with real-world cases. The core of this method is to make cards and think about them repeatedly, and through continuous training and application, we can improve our sensitivity and ability to use mental models.
The process of making a mental model poker method is relatively simple. First, we need to clarify the mental model to be learned, its definition, use, and scope of application. Then, make corresponding cards based on these elements; Finally, deepen your understanding and memory of the mental model by constantly picking up and thinking about these cards. For example, when learning decision analysis, we can make a card about antifragility to clarify the concept, application scenarios and thinking skills of antifragility; Then, keep reviewing and thinking about this card during the learning process to improve your decision-making skills.
As we learn more and the number of cases increases, we can continuously iterate and optimize these cards to better adapt to different application scenarios. This process of iteration and optimization not only helps us better understand and apply the thinking model, but also promotes the development of our thinking and the improvement of our ability to innovate.
3. The Art of Memory and the Philosophy of Life
The art of memory is not only about the accumulation and application of knowledge, but also contains a profound philosophy of life. It tells us that time is a precious treasure and memory is the imprint of time. Through continuous learning and practice, we can make the imprint of time more profound and clear, so as to leave more wisdom and experience.
At the same time, the art of memory also teaches us how to face challenges and difficulties. In the process of learning, we will inevitably encounter forgetfulness and setbacks, but as long as we maintain patience and perseverance, and continue to repeat and expand the dimensions of learning, we can gradually overcome these difficulties and move towards success. This perseverance is also a quality that we must have on the road of life.
In short, the art of memory is a broad and profound science, which requires continuous exploration and practice in order to grasp the essence of it. Through the Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve and Mind Model Poker Method, we can better protect our memory troves and continue to grow and progress on the road of life. Let's step into the art world of memory, explore its mysteries, and gain our own wisdom and success!
