As the syllabus
is huge for civil service exam, most of the candidates feel problem of
recalling the matter they have read. Every human being have more or less same
memory then why some people are good at recalling things while some take time to recall or mix up things while recalling??
Answer to this question is more time revision better your recalling power is.
Let me clear this with an example, suppose you are new to a city and have
to reach at particular address. In the first time, you will ask some people and
then with great effort will reach to the desired address but next time when you
will be travelling to the same city you will be better aware about the street,
roads or some landmark. More number of times you travel the city the better
will be your recalling power regarding that city.
Something similar
happen with our brain as well. When we first read some new thing, it takes time
to understand and to become familiar with that topic. The more number of times
we are reading that thing the better will be your memory or recalling power. So
few tips that will help you in improving your memory are:
ü More number of revisions and timely revision of your subject will ensure
better recalling ability.
ü Understanding of concept help you in improving your memory as compared
with the simply cramming the subject matter.
ü Eat less than your hunger, it really works. It has a scientific reason;
when we eat our food, our blood circulation moves from our brain to stomach to
digest our food which makes us feel drowsy after having our lunch or dinner. So
next time try to have half chapati less than your real hunger.
ü Take sleep for atleast 7-8 hours in a day, it has again proved by
scientific researches that good sleep helps in better recalling power.
ü A good exercise regime or yoga is necessary to drain carbon di oxide out from
your brain and to fill it with the fresh oxygen. Keep atleast one hour in daily
regime for good exercise to give freshness to your mind.
ü Give your mind some fun. Hobbies are important part of life and some time
should be devoted in a week or daily for your hobbies like playing, listening
music or chatting with your friends.
I hope the
above tips will help you atleast to some extent. Last but not least, a happy
person & positive mindset helps in making difficult things easier.
