Putting on those ears to hear how to Sharpen Short Term Memory Often we converse with people each day. During the time, the conversation starts and finishes we may find details of the conversation that left an impression in the mind. Yet, the additional information that didn't appear important at the time seems to have run off down the road. Where did it go? How can we pull up those details to construct the entire conversation to understand why it left an impression?
Sometimes we converse with people and never hear a single word they say, yet a few months down the road the conversation will come to mind? Why does this occur? For one, you listen at what time you think you are not listening. For two, the short-term mind captures pieces of
information and stores it, sending it to the long-term mind.
For the first part of the topic, you need to concentrate to pull up the other parts of the conversation that left an impression in your mind. Concentration is the ability to focus or direct thoughts to a specific target. This will help you to draw up images in the mind that will put you in front of the person you conversed with at the time. The problem most times with missing points is that people fail to paraphrase conversations. Paraphrasing is the process of restating keywords that bring out a point. In other words, if I said Mary went to see Lisa yesterday and the two girls went out on the town. You might paraphrase and say, do you mean Mary and Lisa went to the club? Paraphrasing helps you to grasp words, while involving self in the conversation. This leads to concentrating and listening. The information is then processed and stored in the long-term mind where you can retrieve the information easily.
As you converse with a person, it is always wise to verify and listen to the facts. Facts are statements, words, etc all backed with proof it is factual. The downside is many people will believe what they hear without verifying the facts. This is what makes the mind stumble, since the mind is inborn to strive to learn truth. To give you an example, I proved this logic by calling a few friends and outright lying to them. They believed every word I said. Yet, I called them back again and told them some outright facts and not one of those people believed me. This took the inborn out and put in the illogical thinking that people only hear what they want to hear. I then called them back and told them the first time I called I told them an outright lie, and the second time was nothing more than truth, which I had evidence to support my claims. The minds were baffled. These people have difficult sharpening their minds, since they only hear what they want to believe.
Moving onto the second question, we can see that sometimes the mind is cluttered and off in some other direction as people talk to them. This means they mind is consumed with other thoughts that are hindering them from listening. At what time the mind is cluttered it will have difficult deciphering and processing information, however the mind will capture details that will lead to specifics regardless.
What happens is at what time an associating trigger hits the mind the mind will start to recall and remember pieces of information it gathered from the conversation. The problem is once the pieces come to the fore, some people have a tendency to dismiss those pieces and rarely following the steps to sharpen the mind to remember. The ultimate solution to sharpen the short-term mind is to put on those ears to hear.
