Have you been quite forgetful lately? Have you been worried? If you are worried about losing keys and forgetting names, here are some ways for you.

Find out your own learning style

We all have our own ways of learning and remembering. Some of us have to say something out loud to remember it; others may have to write it down. Whatever your learning style is, accept it and find out a way that will work with it, whether it is written/audio notes（音频笔记） or some other ways.

Repeat a lot

Do something many times, and it is possible for you to remember it.

Repeating can help you turn short-term memory into long-term memory. It can feel a little silly writing down everything, or saying something to yourself 10 times in order to get through your day, but if it's necessary, then go ahead and do it.

Avoid unnecessary distractions （干扰）

With each day bringing fresh bad news, we have more distractions than ever before. However, there are many ways you can cut down the number of distractions.

The first one is trying to use your mobile phone less. Some studies show Internet use is making our attention last shorter and our memory worse. Although it's almost impossible to keep away from the Internet, using your mobile phone less can help.

The second one is to avoid doing many things at the same time. It has also been shown to influence long-term memory.
