To Improve memory....

Several guidelines to improve my memory

To exercising my brain, there are some basic things I can do to improve my ability to retain and retrieve memories:
  1. Pay attention.  
  2. Tailor information acquisition to my learning style.
  3. Involve as many senses as possible.
  4. Relate information to what I already know.
  5. Organize information.
  6. Understand and be able to interpret complex material.
  7. Rehearse information frequently and “over-learn”.
  8. Be motivated and keep a positive attitude.
Healthy Habits that Improve my Memory
Regular exercise
  • Increases oxygen to brain.
  • Reduces the risk for disorders that lead to memory loss, such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
  • May enhance the effects of helpful brain chemicals and protect brain cells.
Managing stress
  • Cortisol, the stress hormone, can damage the hippocampus if the stress is unrelieved.
  • Stress makes it difficult to concentrate.
Good sleep habits
  • Sleep is necessary for memory consolidation.
  • Sleep disorders like insomnia and sleep apnea leave you tired and unable to concentrate during the day.
Not smoking
  • Smoking heightens the risk of vascular disorders that can cause stroke and constrict arteries that deliver oxygen to the brain.

Nutrition and Memory improvement

A diet based on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and “healthy” fats will provide lots of health benefits, but such a diet can also improve memory.
  • B vitamins, especially B6, B12, and folic acid. They’re also involved in making red blood cells, which carry oxygen. (Best sources: spinach and other dark leafy greens, broccoli, asparagus, strawberries, melons, black beans and other legumes, citrus fruits, soybeans.)
  • Antioxidants like vitamins C and E, and beta carotene, fight free radicals, which are atoms formed when oxygen interacts with certain molecules. Free radicals are highly reactive and can damage cells, but antioxidants can interact with them safely and neutralize them. Antioxidants also improve the flow of oxygen through the body and brain. (Best sources: blueberries and other berries, sweet potatoes, red tomatoes, spinach, broccoli, green tea, nuts and seeds, citrus fruits, liver.)
  • Omega-3 fatty acids are concentrated in the brain and are associated with cognitive function. They count as “healthy” fats, as opposed to saturated fats and trans fats, protecting against inflammation and high cholesterol. (Best sources: cold-water fish such as salmon, herring, tuna, halibut, and mackerel; walnuts and walnut oil; flaxseed and flaxseed oil)
    Because older adults are more prone to B12 and folic acid deficiencies, a supplement may be a good idea for seniors. An omega-3 supplement (at any age) if you don’t like eating fish. But nutrients work best when they’re consumed in foods, so try your best to eat a broad spectrum of colorful plant foods and choose fats that will help clear, not clog, your arteries. Your brain will thank you!

VUCA ....D-Day 2010

Yesterday, I attend The Company D-Day or Deployment Day for year 2010 which had been held at Vistana Hotel, Kuantan. The main objective of this program is for the top management to share and deliver the 2010 vision and the mission to all the employees.


There were such a great, amazing presentations and workshops given by Chairman, General Manager, Plant Manager and respective leaders that inspired me. Here, I just noted one word from the bundle of them.

Plant Manager said :

“Presently, we are living in VUCA environment”

I tried to find the meaning of word Vuca but the result vuca was not found in the Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary. But, one website notes that VUCA is a military term used to describe environments criteria.

Actually, VUCA stand for V- Volatility, U-Uncertainty, C-Complexity, and A-Ambiguity.

That’s mean the industry are challenged with all the VUCA threat. To survive, we have to change and always be positive. Then, we must convert VUCA with new VUCA. It reminds me that the doctor heal the snake bite with the snake serum ..hehe, make sense also!!!

So, new VUCA is V- Vision, U- Understanding, C- Clarity, and A- Agility.

It was half day program and after lunch we have simple game for team building. Then...at the end of the session, every body was given adidas voucher worth RM170 and one mini ball (replica of South Africa Word Cup 2010-worth RM80)....kira okay la.
