The Background
Sometimes I like memorizing a deck of cards.
Helps me keep my mind sharp.
I learned how from my mentor James Randi. He explained how you can build an image for each card that has its value and suit built into it. Then each image/card links to the next card/image in the sequence.
Now you can start with card number one which connects you to card number two which triggers you to think of card three and so on until you’re through the deck.
Takes a bit of work, but it’s easier than you may think (once you get the hang of it).
(If you want to learn the memory tricks like this that you can use to remember names, numbers, and decks of cards then you can check out my “Perfect Recall” video course in my ZAVANT University training platform.)
The main drawback of “linking” cards together like this is that it’s tough to do it backward. You also don’t know what the 14th card is without counting through
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14!
The way to fix that is to use several methods of mnemonics to encode the different types of ways I want to remember the relationships inside & between the cards of the deck.
The Challenge
That leads me to my program.
Or, rather, the program I’ve always wished I had.
While there are memory trainer apps & programs, I haven’t found one that tests me on all the dimensions I want to test myself on.
Up until now I’ve never found someone who could make the program.
Along comes Chat GPT 4.
So, I ask it to make the program.
After a couple false starts with Chat GPT 3, I slide over to Chat GPT 4 and it nails it in a couple minutes.
I take it from only working on my laptop to working on my website where I can practice from desktop, phone, or anything that connects to the net.
So watch the video if you want the full peek behind the process, and then go try it out yourself.
The future is now.
Start building yours.
