LPT: Trick to remember a long list
When I'm in the shower, it gives me space to think when I usually keep myself to busy for much thinking. Obviously, I can't write or type in the shower, so I came up with this trick to help me remember the things I'm thinking about until I can make a note of them.
I will single out the things I want to remember, and assign a related word to each one.
Take this list, for example:
Buy dragonfruit at the specialty grocery store in town
Take photo back-ups of my receipts
Send game tips to my friend
Post that funny photo of my cat to my friend group
I have condensed the list in my mind to a series of related words:
dragon
receipt
tips
funny
I will recite the list of words in my head a few times. When I can write things down, I start with the list of words. Then I use each word to "unpack" the whole thought and note the full details. The words remind me of each thing I was trying to remember.
This could apply to other scenarios, but I find it helps with remembering a lot in the short term.
