What's Your Name Again?

About 90% of healthy adults admit they have trouble remembering names...

There are different tricks and techniques that help – but remembering THOSE can be half the battle. Dr. Elizabeth Edgerly, who runs memory clinics says, most people are visual learners – which explains why we remember faces better. When you meet someone new – take a good look at their face. Next, try to link their name to a facial feature. For example, check to see if John has a good jawline – or Lauren has great lips. Finally, make an effort to use that person’s name in a sentence as soon as you can – “Frank, where do you live?”
