One Thing to Remember

To have a better chance of making complex information memorable, ask yourself these 2 questions:

• If my audience will only remember one thing about my explanation, what is that "one thing?"
• And, why should my audience care about this "one thing?"

The process that provides us with vivid memories is the same one that we are using to imagine something. The mind treats past memory the same way as a future imagination. This also indicates that apart from the present moment, the past and future are just mental constructs.

This is a type of implicit long-term memory that aids certain tasks' performance without the conscious awareness of past experiences. E.g.: Riding bikes or tying shoelaces.
