If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody kmows this, and nobody would think of questioning this fact. Yet there are many people who do not seem to know that the memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong. The position is exactly the same as that of two people, one of whom exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day.
If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just as much his own fault as if it was his arms and legs that were weak. Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever; but all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same means—practice.
Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can? Why is this? Of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember things: they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, times, and prices, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want a good memory practise remembering
1)Do all people have the same memory?

Перевод: Если в течение некоторого времени вы не пользуетесь руками или ногами, они становятся слабыми; когда вы снова начнете их использовать, они снова станут сильнее. Все это знают, и никому не придет в голову ставить этот факт под сомнение. Однако есть много людей, которые, кажется, не знают, что память работает таким же образом. Когда кто-то говорит, что у него хорошая память, на самом деле он имеет в виду, что сохраняет свою память на практике, регулярно тренируя ее, сознательно или бессознательно. Когда кто-то говорит, что у него плохая память, это на самом деле имеет в виду, что он не дает достаточно возможности стать сильным. Поза точно такая же, как у двух человек, один из которых тренирует свои руки и ноги, играя в теннис, а другой весь день сидит в кресле или в машине.
Если друг жалуется, что у него слабые руки, мы знаем, что это его собственная вина. Но если он говорит нам, что у него плохая память, многие из нас думают, что виноваты его родители или что ему просто не повезло, и немногие из нас понимают, что это такая же собственная вина, как если бы это были его руки и ноги, которые были слабыми. Не все из нас могут стать чрезвычайно сильными или чрезвычайно умными; но все мы можем, если у нас обычные тела и мозг, улучшить свою силу и память одним и тем же способом - практикой.
Вы когда-нибудь замечали, что у людей, которые не умеют читать и писать, обычно лучше память, чем у тех, кто умеет? Почему это? Конечно, потому что те, кто не умеет читать или писать, должны помнить вещи: они не могут записывать их в маленькую тетрадь. Они должны помнить даты, время и цены, имена, песни и рассказы; так что их память постоянно тренируется. Так что, если вы хотите хорошей практики запоминания, запоминайте.
