ABSTRACT
Luck has nothing to do with it. If your memory is poor, then it’s not ‘unfair’: it’s your fault. Happily, and more to the point, you can do something about it.
Of all the myths that surround Memory, the most damaging is that it is a gift. That is quite untrue. Memory is a skill; and like any skill its performance depends on application, on practice, and on regular training. Everyone potentially has a first-class memory; and everyone can train their memory, and thereby improve their efficiency.
