The locations in the car become storage compartments for the short-term memories STM. These methods also organize information, therefore making it easier to find. Same letters, but very different meaning and the second is harder to memorize. The more order you put into a subject the easier it will be to remember. The secret to accelerated learning is superior organization.
We can use other cars to remember other new information too. Here is a picture of a car with seven images on it. Look at the picture below and make sure that you can clearly recreate the whole image in your mind. Break the images down; look at each place and make sure that each one sticks to its place. Have you done that? When you have it in your memory it will be easier to gauge if you are living the Seven Habits.
When you mentally look at the car you will instantly be able to recall all the information. Remember the more you know, the easier it is to get to know more. Let me explain each of the pictures; the Seven Habits are as follows: Habit 1: Be Pro-active — I thought of a Bee that is a pro-golfer.
That picture should be enough to trigger habit 1. Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind — The brain is running a race, and looking at the end in mind. Habit 3: Put First Things First — the man is in 1st position, putting first things first. Habit 6: Synergize — sign balancing on the edge with eyes. Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw — on the tire of the car. With your memory always use as few pictures as possible, to remember as much as possible. The more simple and clear it is, the less you will feel overwhelmed.
You can also make the connection that the first 3 habits are the Private Victory: the front of your car is private; you are the only one that opens the bonnet of your car.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are the Public Victory: in the car, you allow others to get into your car, it is public. Habit 7 is outside the car: the seventh habit keeps everything else in check. Remember these habits, read the book to get more understanding and retention and live them.
It involves a process and a tremendous commitment. These methods help you to organize information more clearly and therefore you will be using more of your memory power and potential.
All the methods in this book help you to store information that can be used. You can make many more storage compartments in and on your car. If you think about it you can use every detail of your car to find at least places to store new information in your memory. You can also use any other forms of transport: buses, trains, airplanes, ships or even space ships as storage files or compartments.
In his book he talks about how we have at least ten intelligences. I like to remember these intelligences to remind myself how incredible we all are and to focus on improving them daily.
But before I get ahead of myself, let me demonstrate how to remember these intelligences with another system. It is called, The Body Method. It is similar to The Car Method, but this time we are using parts of our body to store the new information.
Your body is another great long-term storage compartment; you are in it every day and you know it well. With this method we are going to place ten key bits of information on our body. The first place that we are going to store information on is our feet. The first intelligence is Creative intelligence. So I want you to imagine that you are standing on a big bright light bulb a light bulb always reminds me of creative ideas , and it is burning your feet.
To strengthen the association you can also imagine you are painting a beautiful work of art on your feet. On the second place, your knees, we are going to store Personal intelligence. Now imagine a big Purse sounds like Personal on your knees. Create a bit of action with this picture; imagine opening the purse on your knees and your knees come flying out of it. Personal intelligence is about taking responsibility, so own the purse on your knees.
The next storage compartment is your thighs. Here we will store Social intelligence. Imagine people having a big Party Social on your thighs.
Really SEE the party and feel it happening on your thighs now. The next place is your belt or hips, and we will store Spiritual intelligence there. Imagine a beautiful angel on your belt, or that the angel is buckling your belt for you Angels remind me of spirituality.
Now review all the previous images from your feet to your hips. The words are Creative, Personal, Social, and Spiritual. Next is your Physical intelligence and we will store it on your stomach. Imagine you get physical, start doing sit ups and your stomach all of a sudden becomes muscular; it becomes the perfect six pack. Imagine in your left hand your Sensual intelligence. Here you can imagine a snotty nose, ears, and eyes to remind you of all of your senses. Then in your right hand place Sexual intelligence — here you can make up your own picture.
The next place is your mouth. Imagine big bright colorful numbers flying out of your mouth Numerical intelligence. Or, you can only speak in numbers. On your nose, SEE a space ship landing on your nose and forehead Spatial intelligence.
Or, SEE a space ship flying up your nose. Finally, on the top of your head imagine writing words on your hair, or your hair starts talking Verbal intelligence. Creative intelligence 2. Personal intelligence self-knowledge, self-fulfillment, and understanding self 3.
Social intelligence 4. Spiritual intelligence The Bodily Intelligences All stored on the biggest part of your body, on your torso. Physical intelligence 6.
Sensual intelligence 7. Numerical intelligence 9. Spatial intelligence Verbal intelligence. Tony Buzan says we are now entering the intelligence age, so it is vitally important that you know more about your amazing intelligences. When you read Head First, the body list will act as a powerful memory matrix that will attract more information and improve your understanding and recognition of the content.
When you hear people discussing IQ you will also immediately know remember that IQ only tests three intelligences — the head intelligences. But the definitions of intelligence we learned at school were built around the specific types of intelligence that are most valued at school — verbal intelligence and numerical intelligence. You can use this method to remember information for exams, work, shopping lists or any list of information.
I just used ten places as an example, but you can use your back, your ears, eyes, nose… you can use it all. Just make sure you connect the two in a humorous way remember the SEE principles , and that you remember the order. I have been able to use this method to remember fifty bits of information.
I like to use this system to remember information so that I can consistently look at the information and have it at my fingertips. The smell is a link to the experience. Or, you hear a song and a whole stream of memories are released from your mind? We can consciously take control of this reminder principle to create another system for our memory skills toolbox. This is the first system that I ever learned, and it introduced me to my memory potential. It worked so well that it seemed like a trick and ever since that day I have been hooked on the power of my memory.
I hope it has a similar effect for you. It is called, The Peg Method of memory. We are going to explore the power of your associative mind. We are going to learn two new peg methods of memory. These secrets were brought to our conscious awareness by John Sambrook and Henry Heardson in the late s. These methods are very simple and effective. It will provide you with a method that can help you remember 40 or more bits of information in a short space of time. You can even remember the information in random order and by number.
Let me explain the first method, the rhyming pegs. The pegs act in much the same way as clothes pegs. They keep information hanging around in your mind. The pegs themselves must become part of your long-term memory for them to work.
Remember you always need your long-term memory to assist your short-term memory. With this method you associate new information to long-term memory pegs in your mind. The pegs also act as compartments or files for your new thoughts.
You link the peg using the SEE principle to the words that you want to remember. I want you to use this new system so that you can hold these emotions in your mind. Think about them daily, because personal development only happens when you can remember what you need to act on.
The Ten Emotions of Power are: 1. Love and warmth 2. Appreciation and gratitude 3. Curiosity 4. Excitement and passion 5. Determination 6. Flexibility 7. Confidence 8. Cheerfulness 9. Vitality Contribution Remember to make the images illogical.
SEE the information in your mind for a few seconds. Take your time and make the associations strong; you can also draw an image to help you experience the information more. One bun, imagine a heart symbol for love shaped warm bun, or imagine that thousands of warm hearts are flying out of a bun. Really visualize it and you will remember that one is love and warmth.
Two shoe, imagine that a preacher is grating a shoe with a cheese grater. I used a preacher to remind you of appreciation and a grater for gratitude. Maybe, imagine that the branches look like cats, cats are hanging off the branches or cats are growing out of the tree. Curiosity killed the cat.
So, three is curiosity. Four door, imagine an excited person bashing down your door. Or, the door is so excited it jumps up and down and opens and closes. You squeeze passion fruit on the excited door. Four is excitement and passion. Five hive, imagine determined bees or determined terminators trying to break open a bee hive. Bees are a determined nation. Determination is five. Six sticks, imagine hitting a flexible person, that is doing the splits, with a stick.
Or, really feel how flexible the stick can be. Six is Flexibility. Seven heaven, imagine heaven is full of confident people. See them walking tall with confidence that they are in paradise. Seven is Confidence. Eight gate, see a smiley faced shaped gate. You cheerfully open the cheerful gate. Eight is cheerfulness. Nine vine, see vitamins growing on a vine. As you eat these vitamin grapes you feel your sense of vitality improve.
Ten hen, imagine a hen giving you presents. She is a contributing hen. Ten is contribution. Now really see each link picture in your mind and make it clear.
You should now know these emotions forwards, backwards, and in random order. Test yourself to see if you have them all. Practise feeling these emotions because you become good at what you practise.
With this method you can easily create a peg system that you can use to store up to 30 bits of new information. Pegging also has no limits; you can create other lists too. Here is the second short peg list that you can use, The Shape System. It converts numbers into concrete shapes. It works in the same way as the rhyme list, only this time the pegs are shaped like the number.
We are not going to do an exercise with this system, because you have already learned the principle in the rhyme list. Use this list on your own, to remember ten bits of new information, play with it and have a bit of fun.
The shape method just gives you another option to use. You can use any list that is already in your long-term memory. You can make up words for each letter of the alphabet e. Use any list that you already know well: your favorite football players, super heroes, pop stars or any list that you can remember in order.
Enjoy using this method, and find new ways to improve it. Memory is the residue of thought. Willingham The system that you are about to discover is the most incredible tool you will ever learn.
It will help you grow in ways that you could never imagine. It is so simple, it has been around for years, and yet few have harnessed its potential. You can use this system to remember any information and mountains of it. It takes practice, but once you use it you will never look back. This method is the original and still the most effective of all the systems. Using this system is as easy as remembering a journey. It is the same process as The Car and Body List, but only this time we are using places or markers on a location, journey or route to store information.
Here is how it works: 1 Prepare in your mind an organized location e. In short, it is as simple as finding a place like a route, journey or building in your mind to store the information.
Then you store it. This system makes remembering large amounts of information as easy as remembering a trip to the nearest shop. Let me introduce you to The Journey Method with a short exercise. We are going to store twelve useful principles from one of John C.
I really enjoy his books because they are always very well organized and therefore making storing information easier. He normally creates a summary list of the topics that he will cover and then he writes in more detail about each topic.
You can use the systems to remember all of his lists and laws and become an expert in leadership. Once the information is in a memorable matrix, it will start to attract more information to it; it helps long- term storage and use.
In his book Today Matters he shares twelve keys that you can focus on daily to get more success and fulfillment in your life. Here are the keys: 1. Attitude 2. Priorities 3. Health 4. Family 5. Thinking 6. Commitment 7. Finances 8. Faith 9. Relationships Generosity Values Growth Most people will repeat the list of information over and over again and try to force it into their memory. Rote learning and constant repetition creates an aversion to learning and it is frustrating.
The more you can encode information into your memory, the more effective the learning. Now all that we have to do is to focus attention and connect each thought to a place. Try this little exercise with me… I am going to be using four rooms in my house as a journey to give you an example of how you can use this system. The rooms are compartments in my mind that I can use to store new information. Make sure that your markers are all in an easy to follow order.
Then review your markers to make sure you have clear storage compartments. The places must also be near each other, but nicely spaced out. Here is a mental map of four rooms in my house and twelve places that we will use, and they are: Room 1 Kitchen: 1. Washing machine 2. Fridge 3. Room 2 TV room: 4. Chairs 5. Exercise bike. Room 3 Bedroom: 7.
Mirror 8. Cupboards 9. Room 4 Bathroom: Bath Shower If I gave you a box with twelve objects in it, would you be able to place it on the furniture in my house?
Of course you would, now all we do is turn the information into something tangible, like an object, and then place them in the room.
We start in the kitchen. The first word is Attitude. Imagine someone with a really bad attitude jumping into your washing machine. Clean up his attitude in the machine. SEE it! At the next place imagine writing all of your Priorities on the fridge door. Use a permanent marker and think about how your priorities are permanently stored on the fridge door. Imagine a healthy bodybuilder making an apple pie and shoving it into the stove. The apples are also a reminder for Health.
So what was in the washing machine? On the fridge? At the stove? Now we move to the TV room. The first place there is the chairs.
Imagine your whole Family is jumping up and down on the chairs. The more illogical the image, the more it will stick. The second place is the TV. Imagine a thought bubble coming out of the TV, because it is a Thinking machine.
It also influences our thinking. The final place in the room is the exercise bike, so imagine combing reminds you of commitment the exercise bike. It is also a Commitment to use the bike. In my bedroom the first place is the mirror and here imagine money flying out of the mirror. Your Finances are a mirror of your productivity. Whatever represents faith for you, place it inside the cupboard.
Put Faith on every shelf or hanger. The next word we want to place on our memory journey is Relationships, and that is on the bed. Okay, you can make your own picture here. The final room is the bathroom. See a genie jumping out of the bath and he gives you what you wish. The genie giving reminds us of Generosity. Imagine the shower is made out of gold. Or, you open the taps and gold runs out of it. Gold has great value, and represents Values. At the last place we imagine a tree growing out of the toilet for Growth.
What was the word connected to each place? Excellent, that is now your first memory route or journey, and it will begin to open your mind to the possibility of having a perfect memory. You will remember all the words if you have connected them properly. Go through it a few times and you will know The Daily Dozen. You will get better results with this method if you used your own environment because you are more aware of the order of the places.
Review the list backwards and you will notice that it will all still be there. By reviewing it backwards, you make the images clearer for your memory. If you made clear images and placed them on the route, the list will be very memorable.
This method helps you to see the big picture and zoom into the details. The concepts are brought to life and become concrete. It is always easier to remember something that is experienced in your mind; we remember what we think about. Now think about this information that you have learned, buy Today Matters and focus on making small changes in these areas daily, and remember it to live it.
This journey or route method shows you what is possible. Every great memory person uses this method more than any other. It is so effective because you can make thousands of storage places. Think about how many markers you can make? We all have a brilliant memory for journeys. You have visited many places in your life; you can use buildings, museums, schools, shopping centers, and almost any location that you know.
Make sure they are places you know well, that have significance to you, and they have lots of variety. You can make your routes as long as you want; you can have a place or route for every subject you are learning. Remember to have fun! This system will change the way that you learn forever. The only effort is trying to improve your ability to make images and placing it on a familiar mental journey.
The journey is like the paper and the images are like the ink. Your imagination can create any information on a familiar journey. It will change your life! You can use it to remember all kinds of information, I have helped medical students, law students, pilots, managers, and business people remember all kinds of information with this method.
I used this method to store the first 10, digits of pi. A friend of mine Dr. Yip Swee Chooi remembered the whole Oxford dictionary, pages, word-for-word with this method. Anyone can store an unlimited amount if they choose to spend the time. Of course you would. If you look for it, you will find thousands and thousands of places just waiting to be used in your mind. There are no limits to this system, only limits in your own thinking.
The important thing is that you practise. The more you practise the better you will get. Now in this chapter we are going to learn to link more thoughts together. It is a way to direct attention and to strengthen your imagination and your ability to associate concepts. Your mind is an associating machine and it has no limits. It is creating a relationship between the known and the unknown — and the more you know, the easier it is to connect more information and get to know more.
It will seem silly, but stick with it and I will make a point. This story takes longer for me to explain than what happens in your mind. Read it and remember to use the SEE principle. I want you to imagine that you are washing a tin; really see it in your mind. As you wash the tin, it suddenly begins developing a huge Adams apple. A chef and her son grab the Adams apple and rip it out. The Chef and her son then decide to make some medicine, which they give to Marilyn Monroe and she starts to develop a massive Adams apple too.
Michael Jackson sees her Adams apple throbbing and runs away screaming and jumps into a van with beer in it. The van is being driven by a big yellow hairy sun — really see it, make it silly, hairy, and let it stick. A tailor takes the polka dots off and starts tailoring you a polka-dotted suite.
Now recall the story and all the key words. See if you can do it backwards too. What you have just learned are the first twelve presidents of the USA.
You can continue remembering all forty-four Presidents just by linking one thought to the next. If you have any problems recalling the list just make it more outstanding and make the links clearer.
Here is the list of the first twelve Presidents: 1. Washing a tin - Washington 2. Adams apple - Adams 3. A chef and her son - sounds like Jefferson 4. Marilyn Monroe - Monroe 6. Adams apple - Adams 7. Michael Jackson - Jackson 8. A van with beer in - Van Buren 9. A hairy sun - Harrison A tiler a person who lays tiles - Tyler Polka dots - Polk Tailor - Taylor Once you have the list in your mind go through it forwards and backwards a few times to make sure it is all there.
You can also link more information to the list, so it becomes like a new peg list. You could link each vice-president to your presidents, just like we did with the foreign words and capitals. You can also connect your links or stories to some of the other systems that you have learnt. You can link more than one concept at a specific place or compartment on the car, body, pegs or journey method.
This way you can remember thousands of words or concepts by connecting links to a short mental journey. It is so powerful because we use more of our creativity and imagination to make the information outstanding, therefore stimulating our interest and curiosity; keeping our attention at a peak. Each word reminds you of the next, you are making your own links and you are only memorizing two things at a time.
You can also use this method to memorize paragraphs of information. All that you have to do is condense everything down to a list of key words and then convert those lists into meaningful link stories. A whole syllabus or a book can be condensed into a ridiculous story. When you do this it is easy to remember, giving you a great mental workout and it is fun!
In this chapter you are going to learn strategies that can make a huge difference to your name memory. Make a commitment today to improve; it is a commitment that will provide you with numerous benefits and save you from many embarrassing situations.
In Chapter 3, I showed you the self-fulfilling circle. To apply, applicants must submit an online application through its affiliate program portal. To qualify as an Etsy affiliate marketing partner, eligible candidates must be at least 18, have an active, unique website, have a brand identity, and meet other criteria.
If approved, Etsy pays a commission to the affiliate for sales they procure—sales resulting from their site's promotion of the product. Commission rates vary and are paid on the order price.

Etsy declares that it has the right to terminate an agreement at any time for any reason and that it can withhold compensation for any legitimate reason. The affiliate earns a commission and may earn credit towards their final merchant fees.
Commissions are earned when a buyer bids on or immediately purchases an item within 24 hours of clicking the eBay purchase link on the affiliate's site. For submitted bids, the commission is paid if the buyer wins the auction within 10 days of the bid. Gift cards, items sold by charities, and special promotions are generally excluded as qualifying sales because of their low revenue streams. Affiliate marketing is an advertising model in which a company pays others e. Affiliates place ads or market the products or services on their website, app, or blog.
Commissions are paid on leads that convert to sales. Blogs are an effective channel for advertising and promoting as it allows the blogger, serving as an expert, to express an opinion about the offering. After identifying a platform, find a specific category that you are comfortable with or interested in.
A focused segment can better help you attract a dedicated consumer base.
