      Introduction

      Over the course of the last decade, I've appeared on various television shows demonstrating what many people have called “extraordinary” feats of memory. Some things that I've managed to memorize include: the exact order of a shuffled deck of playing cards in under two minutes; a computer generated random sequence of 100+ digits forwards and backwards in five minutes; the names of more than 200 people in an audience after having heard each name only one time; all Kentucky Derby results since its inception in 1875, and more than 4000 pieces of data about all 535 members of the United States Congress including each congressperson's first name, last name, state, district number, political party, all congressional committees on which they serve, and more. I did also manage to win the USA Memory Championship, which required me to successfully pull off some of the feats that I just described as well as many more. However, I want to emphasize that there is nothing different or special about my brain compared to that of the average person. The superpower memory that I've developed is the result of training and practice. You are also capable of doing extraordinary things with your memory, and this can help you to be more successful in your career and personal life!

      Since becoming a memory champion, I've dedicated my life to helping other people to unlock the extraordinary power of their minds. With this book, I will teach you some simple and fun techniques to help you to easily remember names, speeches and presentations, important facts and figures, foreign languages, course material, and much more! Drawing on almost a decade of experience teaching memory techniques to people from all over the world, I've included in this book techniques that are not only the most powerful and effective but also the easiest for anyone to learn.

      This is not a book about the very broad topic of human memory. There are many aspects to memory and a lot of brain science that you won't find included. This is also not a comprehensive book about memory training. I've purposely omitted various techniques that I'm aware of and have personally used, because I feel they are not a good fit for this particular book. You are holding in your hands what I believe to be one of the simplest and most straightforward introductions to memory training ever written. This is a short book with information that is easy to digest and put into practice right away. In a matter of days or less, you will be able to enjoy impressing
