Yesterday I did the biggest part of the first lesson, and today I finished the first lesson and started with the second lesson. The lessons are actually training sessions where you get to practice the methods they teach. Along the way there are tips and examples to get you started. Although there is a lot to do, the memorization process using the pmemory techniques itself is pretty simple. What I noticed is that after a session, my brain feels worked out. Yesterday I did almost the whole first lesson after a whole day of programming at work. Today I finished the 1st lesson and started the second on a fresh brain, straight out of bed. I don't see a really big difference in doing the lessons after a day of work or when doing them on a fresh morning.
I noticed that memorizing the first words of a new day goes pretty slow, but after about 4-6 words, it starts to feel naturally. This has probably to do with the fact that the techniques are new for me, and that it takes some time to have them ready from the moment I wake up. I must admit I have experience with other memorization techniques, but it's not helping that much, because the pmemory lessons(and the book) often state the opposite of what I had learned before about memorization.
I have to admit I'm pretty satisfied with the results already. It does take a brain shift to get used to, especially if you are used to other memorization techniques, but I can imagine that using the methods in daily life is easier than using other memorization techniques. Just because they use a more natural method of memorization.
I will try to post updates after each lesson, I hope this will be a learning experience for everybody.
