The more I use the ABC list trick, the better and faster it works : this is quiet obvious of course.
But yet, yesterday I was really amazed how fast and how good it worked.
I had to learn 13 words by heart.
It was enough to read the list of the 13 words once and while reading I made the associations with my anchorlist.
In about 1 minute, I was finished (that's about 5 seconds per word) and to my surprise, I could repeat the 13 words without mistake and I still can reconstruct them without any error.
In the past, learning to remember these words (and in the right order, which was important in this case) would be a real pain for me.
In many cases, I would not even think about starting to learn something by heart, because of the pain associated to that action.
When I started using the ABC lists, I was somewhat scared that when I would use the same ABC list to remember different things at the same time, they would all start to mix.
For one reason or the other, it does not happen.
I was already enthusiastic about the ABC lists, I'm even more now.
