Improve Your Memory

If you have the desire to Improve your memory then please go through this.When it comes to our general memory, we tend to receive the data before we analyze and store it into our brains. Much of this information is stored in a form that is called short term memory. To improve your memory, you will want to take the desirable parts of this short term memory and store it into your long term memory.Placing information in your long term memory will allow you to remember it much longer than just a few minutes. Studies have shown that much of the information we absorb can be lost in just a few minutes.

After a single hour has passed, two thirds of this information will be lost. After 24 hours has passed, 90% of the information we received the day before can be lost. As you can see, this can make remembering things difficult, especially when you consider the fact that most of us are presented with numerous facts and figures on a daily basis. There are a number of strategies you can use to reverse this. The first thing you will want to start doing is organizing the information you take in. To do this, you will need to figure out how you want to absorb information. You could use rote memorization, or you could use a outline form.
When you receive useful information, it is important to pay attention to it. You may also find it helpful to use multiple senses. You can write it down, say it out loud, or look at it.

When you use multiple senses to memorize something, this will send a message to your brain saying that it is important, and your brain will place it in your long term memory. Another thing that can help you improve your memory is recall. If you recall something multiple times, this will allow your brain to take the information and place it in your long term memory instead of just the short term memory.


Following the steps above will allow you to commit any information you want into the long term memory of your brain. It is excellent for college students who have to take multiple exams. You will also want to do the same thing for about three more days. If you find this to be tedious, it is easier than you think. It is important to remember that your brain will get rid of information that it assumes isn't important. If you don't go over the information enough times, your brain will place it in your short term memory. Once you've repeated the same process 20 times in a span of three days, this will send a message to your brain that this information must not be forgotten.

6 Best Ways To Boost Your Creativity  

Posted by Rajiv Pandey in , ,

Either those working in a creative environment or those who don’t, must have had experienced a moment when they feel like they had nothing at all in their mind. They got blocked. They are stuck. However, there are some steps that these people can try to get unblocked. They can even go back to being extremely creative.
All they have to do is simply:

1. Break off. Simply do nothing. Take your time. You might be overloaded. You might be stressed out. And, there is nothing better you can do than just stop doing anything. Take some time to enjoy yourself. Get a bubble bath or enjoy your most favorite food or go shopping. Anything that can make you feel relaxed.

2. Don’t be afraid to make changes. Change anything that you think is necessary. Change your working atmosphere. Change your way of doing the job. Change your way of thinking.

3. Believe in yourself. Don’t underestimate your capability. If once you could do it, then you can do it and you’ll always be able to do it. Keep in mind that you are a creative person. Don’t ever think the opposite.

4. Play with what seem to be impossible ideas. Try to. You’ll never know whether it’s really impossible or not until you try. Even if it might not be an amazing result, at least you have exercised. And, for most creative people a seemingly-impossible-or-bad idea might turn into an astonishing one.

5. Get a friend. Link with a friend also working as a creative person.

6. Enjoy the process. Anything done with joy might bring a better result than that with depression. Especially anything related to creativity. If you tend to get drowned in the river of hopelessness, you are unlikely to be creative. Don’t waste your being blocked and stuck. Move forward. Your willingness is the key to creativity.

Five Tips for Writing a Great CV  

Posted by Rajiv Pandey in , , ,

The trends for writing a good CV change all the time. Should you write a CV with all your work history? Do you bullet point this or that? Just what sort of information should you put in a CV.Plenty of websites will tell you what the current trends for writing a CV are. But you want your CV to look good and leave a fine impression with potential employers, so here are five tips to help you write a better CV than everyone else.

Keep it short

When a job opening comes up, potential employers are flooded with applications. Many CVs don't even get read and are tossed without a thought. CVs that are too long to read are amongst the first to be passed up, so keep your CV short and concise.
Structure it properly and make sure your CV is easy and fast to read. Choose to put things that are memorable on your resume, such as accomplishments or experience that makes you stand out. Be wise with your words and use text that's catchy but stay with relevant terms appropriate for the position you're applying for.

Work Backwards

The first thing that should be on the list of your work experience and job history is the most recent position you held. Potential employers don't care what you did twenty years ago – they want fresh blood and new energy in their company. Pertinent and recent is what they'll watch for, to determine if you're suitable for the job.

Tell the Truth

We all want to present ourselves in the best light and impress potential employers. Lying or glossing over black spots on your CV isn't the way to go about doing so. If you try to cover up areas in your work history, most likely they'll be discovered later on down the line, costing you a potential job.
Look at the positive sides of less-than-desirable work history. If you were unemployed for a period, what did you do in that time? What did you learn? What did you occupy your time with? Put a spin on things and present your history in its best light.

Just The Facts

A CV isn't the place to wax poetic or to gush on about an achievement. A CV is basically a list of facts about why you're qualified for an open position in a business or company. You want to be creative about the power words you choose to describe yourself, not about the type of fiction you can come up with to boost your appeal.

A Cover Letter?

Yes! Include a cover letter with your CV. A cover letter tells your employer your motivation for the job and presents the rationale behind your application. A cover letter is the first thing your potential employer will see, and it introduces you more formally to the business you'd like to work for. Consider it your first "meeting" and have your cover letter include a strong statement of your accomplishments towards the end.

Five simple steps. Yet are they? for if it were that easy, would most applicants not make sure they were all followed. You'd think so, wouldn't you? So often this is not the case. And now you can!

HOW-TO: #1 in Google in 7 days  

Posted by Rajiv Pandey

Article submission was something I had tried in the past but I had always done so by hand submitting to 2 or 3 of the larger portals. In my test during February I was pleasantly surprised how easily I nailed #1 positions across Google, Yahoo, and MSN for some well searched terms. And in 7 days no less. On Big Daddy servers I was noticing #1 spots within 48 hours of posting. In this article I aim to explain, step by step, exactly how I pulled this off, and why it works.

About a week ago I noticed I was #1 in Google for most of the stories I had been submitting to submission sites. Yahoo seems to not like me so much but I am always on the main page at least. Another massive benefit in Google that you will see down the road due to link age considerations, is a large amount of backlinks to your website from pages with a decent PR. With one submission I even nailed two PR7 and one PR8 link. Also I found my article republished, links intact, on several same themed blogs and sites. All of this this as we know, is yummy in Google's tummy.

Obviously this can change but take a look for yourself:

VideoLan Tutorial on Google #1

VideoLan Tutorial on MSN #1

VideoLan Tutorial on Yahoo #1

Keep in mind this article was only published on February 20th – and these rankings were achieved in about 7 days. In fact if you search for any of the article titles in my side bar you will find most of them in the top 10 across all search engines – and quite a few are #1. Now you are not going to hit number #1 positions for very competitive keywords right away, but with a little work you can usually find some pay dirt. The trick is finding keywords that are an attainable goal and that still pull in searchers.
If you have nothing new, fresh or insightful to write about, put your pen down until you do.
Also keep in mind you are not going to get a flood of traffic by doing this once or even 10 times. I only bother to submit articles that are worthy but article submission is now a time consuming part of my regular writing duties. The idea is to attain a trickle of traffic from many sources and get some chatter going. The next step is teaching your girlfriend how to submit articles for you...Heh, ok seriously...

So here is exactly how I did it:

I wrote a solid 500-800 word paper on an emerging or current technology.

I mention my keywords 2-3 times in my article in a natural non spammy way. 1 time in the first paragraph.

I used my keywords in my title.

I followed basic SEO principles for page layout: meta, file name, H1 tags etc.

I triple checked my spelling and never used foul language.

I use title and alt tags for accessibility reasons (Google positively weights this).

I generously provide links to sites of interest woven within my article. (this too!)

I submitted my article to Digg (see: Movable Type Digg Link)

I submitted to the top 25 article submission sites with Article Post Robot.

I also should mention that duplicate content has never been an issue for me when submitting articles, but this is always a potential risk, but more of a long term after thought. Be sure to publish your original article on your website FIRST and always make it clear in your article where the piece originated – like in the bio portion of your submission for example. If you use copyscape keep an eye on things that way.
For now, the above method works extremely well and is quite simple to pull off when using a solid submission tool. The reward for me was a sustainable 500% increase in traffic for some competitive terms. Likely the fact you even found this article is more testimony that this stuff actually works.
