People remember what they are doing better when they have an adrenalin surge. Trying to fix something more securely in the memory by repeating something over and over is a very unproductive way to go about strengthening the memory. Why do frightening events have such strong hold on people? People remember that scary feeling and events associated with it for a long, long time because they had an adrenalin surge. People remember when they were successful and triumphant because of their elation; they also had an adrenalin surge. Utilizing this physical response is the key to faster and better retention of events.

Accelerated Learning
There are several different learning methods that people use to help them learn and remember what they’ve learned. Most of us are familiar with the note-taking method of learning. By taking notes as you read material or listen to a speaker you are actually calling attention to the material twice. The point of accelerated or enhanced learning is to make the information more accessible to the brain. This is done through repetition and reinforcement. The more we hear something—the more we are exposed to something—the more our brain remembers it.

Learning Styles
If you look around at the people around you, whether you are in a classroom, workroom, or living room, you can notice that each and every person has a different way of learning. Learning styles help classify the different ways that people learn into seven distinct styles. Even though everyone has a mix of the styles some people may discover that they have a primary style of learning, and use less of any other type. Some other people may find that they use different types of styles under different circumstances. Just know that there is not a “right” mix, and the types of learning styles you use are constantly changing as you age and experience new things.
