memory and attention

[eternomi]

Commonsense tells us that what we record in our memory is what we pay attention to. The more attention we pay to something, the more likely we'll record it, and the easier it is to remember later.

Commonsense does fail us occasionally, and I started questioning if this is really how it is, or if it is just a conditioning which creates a mental block.

I am especially curious about how people remember minute details of events and people under hypnosis that they couldn't recall when they were conscious.

The concept is similar to that of 'Photoreading', in that you concentrate on bringing up those minute details from your subconcious into your concious mind.

This is the one reason why I want to give Photoreading a try...
