6. Editor Speaks
Man owes all he is and all he possess in life to memory - the abil-
ity of the brain a record of past events , without good memory it
would be difficult to lead an intelligent life .
A keen memory is one of the foundations of success in life
Follow us on .The man who forgets to keep his appointments is often ignored by
the people with a keen sense of time . The latter cannot afford to
Facebook waste for him .The traders who forgets the price he quoted for the
goods previously loses the goodwill and business of his customers .
The office assistant who forgets the procedure and makes mistakes
Twitter , becomes too expensive and is finally discharged from service .it is
clear that a bad memory results in inefficiency ,failure and finan-
cial troubles .
Linkdin
The secreat of the good memory is attention ,and attention
to a subject depends upon our interest in it .Man rarely forgets that
which has made a deep impression on his mind .The main reasons
why some people forget is mostly psychological.They
do not have the strong desire to remember events or recollect
things .What they need is the ‘will’ to imprint the abserveed data
upon memory to produce them whenever needed .Yet another
reason why we forget is that we do not have enough interest in the
subject .We also forget due to our failure to connect one kind of
memory with another , to unify the impressions gained , and to
bring back to life what we learnt previously .
Memory training should be continous all through life . Oth-
erwise it may become ineffective .The various aids through which
is fact is remembered , eg . eye-memory ,ear-memory should be
made to help each other .The facts we remember and the way we
recall them are influenced by our interests , attitudes , and emo-
tional feelings .
I Value your feedback .please give us your opinions about this
first edition of magazine and tells us what features you would like
to see from next time .
Wishing everyone a ‘Happy Children’s Day’ !
