Chapter 40 How to Memorize the Key Points in a Speech

When we think about problems, we can only use two ways: one is the way of external stimuli; the other is the way of introspection.Applying these methods to speeches has evolved into the following two ways of memory: one is through the method of external stimuli such as speech prompts, which is undoubtedly unwelcome; The method of combining knowledge, the content of these speeches should be organized in a logical order, and the speeches must follow each other from beginning to end, just as there must be another room after the door. This sounds simple, but it is very difficult for a beginner speaker, because his thinking ability has been greatly reduced by panic.However, we have an easy, quick, and accurate way of connecting the points of a speech, and that way is to assemble a sentence that doesn't make sense.To give an example: Suppose you want to discuss some topics, and these topics seem to be disorganized and cannot be memorized in combination with your existing knowledge, just like the topics of "cows, cigars, Napoleons, houses, cars".Now, let's put together a sentence that looks ridiculous and see if we can connect these themes to make you remember: "A cow smoked a cigar, caught Napoleon, and the house and car fell in the fire."

You can also make up a sentence yourself to replace the above sentence, and then you can think about what is the third theme of the speech?What about the fifth?What about the fourth, the second, the first?Does this method really work?indeed so!If you're struggling to improve your memory, do this now. We believe that any point can be remembered in this way, and that the more absurd the sentences we compose, the easier it will be to remember them.
