I should of course mention that a memory mind fest freebie is currently taking place and the techniques used are again a little differing to what you may find in traditional learning text books and so on and the address to sign up is here  http://www.learningstrategiesfests.com/memorymindfest/home.aspx?aff=4425

These techniques are generally closer to what you might expect to find in “Business Oriented” training seminars and so on-so whilst many a course from Learning strategies does have a broader appeal-those interested in simple memory management and improvement could do know wore than have a listen in to the Freebie.  Again it is a course that I have purchased and have in my own collection and those who have bought smaller modules such-as Ultimate You might find that particular sections are already known to you.  I think overall the entire package is useful and again COMPLEMENTARY to those that were used elsewhere.

The techniques included questioning and answer sessions and a number of the most basic of memory management techniques that it can be easy to lose if you are not using them in your day-to-day life-so they may have been the sort of techniques that someone who likes quizzes and so on uses or someone who carried on into further education-that should not put anyone who is a factory worker off-as they really are the kinds of techniques that anyone can learn and utilise in life-irrespective of present position or course-so for myself many of the techniques from some of these courses I wish I had been able to Utilise when I was in my so-called School days and further education days-since I have worked in a factory for ten years-it became easy to lose the most simply of memory functioning-and doing these types of courses can bring that back to yourself-irrespective of any one else’s desire to suppress such abilities from colleagues and so on-that of course possibly being one of the main problems in life being the people who stepped up a rung of the ladder and stamp and kick and lash out furiously at those outstretched hands of those below themselves and so on-I give that as a PSYCHOLOGICAL example rather than an ABSOLUTE-for instance at one time when I was seeking promotion and applying for many a job that appeared on the board for internal applicants-people would often make the assumption that they were promoted over myself-even for jobs that I never applied for? Yes that is true and the some of the behaviours of those promoted was of course debatable-the idea that you need to establish a powerbase through the crushing of figureheads and spokes people or persons of the masses is DEBATABLE.  In many ways I have seen the same patterns and cycles repeating over and over-where once there was an old guard of mostly British managers and so on-as the Company promoted more and more International workers-the plight of the English managers has become debatable-in the sense that whilst the assorted factions might all be smiles and cooperating in day-to-day working life-when push comes to shove decisions are being made is does seem that the internationals are gradually BUMPING OFF or TAKING OUT the British Managers and so on-is that true? Well I do think that PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFILING is under utilised and again another useful tool that can be used by anyone to identify character traits and stereotypes-that they themselves may currently posses or indeed those traits in others-when you know your own strengths and weaknesses you can perhaps be better able to not fall into some of the so-called traps-anyway that was a somewhat HUGE DIGRESSION from promoting the free memory mindfest-as I say I purchased the course because I like the various techniques and so on and am an AFFILIATE of Learning strategies-though anyone else might like them simply as another freebie that can be utilised in your day-to-day life.
