Good Memory

Several factors interfere with having a good memory. One such factor is the lack of motivation. Without a real desire to learn or remember something, students probably won’t. Another cause is the lack of practice. To stay sharp, memory skills, like any other skill, must be used on a regular basis. A third factor that can hurt memory is self- doubt. Students often tell themselves, “I know I won’t remember this for the test.” f students are convinced they won’t remember something, they probably won’t. Last, distraction can interfere with memory. Any noise, movement, or even thought can take away attention from the material being studied. Write about a time when you forgot something important related to college, work, or personal life. Describe and explain at least two factors that interfered with having a good memory.
