13. 05/27/10 What I Do 1Suppose you memorize one Event for each day of the year (366 x mo, da, yr, Event) = 1,464 “memories.” Then memorize a story for each Event. 2Suppose you rank & memorize the top 100 Events/Happenings that affected your life. (may be family birthdates, anniv, etc, but should be world Events). 3Now merge those two lists; you have ~ 400 items x 4 = 1,600 “memories.” 4Extend List 1 to top two events for each day (2,928 “memories”). 5Extend List 2 to top 200 (300, 400, 500) ranked Events. I now have Events that are the 3rd time a specific date has been used. 6Keep your list current, e.g., Obamacare, 3/23/2010, definitely goes on the “List”; George Zimmerman questionable; Miley Cyrus definitely not. 7There are rules: exclude birthdays and most deaths; makeup dates for Events without one, i.e., printing press; adjust a few dates by 1-2 days for major conflicts; forget about entertainers/media mavens/pop stars. 8Categorize in 9 areas: sCientific, Diasters, Holidays, Legal, Medical, People, Social, sporTs, War.
