Try This Trick To Help You Remember Peoples Names

I always get picked on for calling everyone 'Bro'. People think that I say that because I am not good with names. All I have to say is, "no comment!"

If you are like me, try these tips to help you remember peoples names.

Having trouble remembering names? Try to focus as soon as you shake hands with someone new. "Attention at the time of learning is the most critical thing," says Larry Squire, Ph.D., a neuro-psychologist at UC San Diego and co-author of "Memory: From Mind to Molecules." "Second is rehearsal, third is relating the name to something."

So repeat the name ("Nice to meet you, Frank"), and then create a mental image linking it to an object (e.g. Frank eating a frank). ("Memory: From Mind to Molecules.")
