Forgot What You Were About to Say? - “How to Remember Not to Forget by Joan Who? and Adam Rosensomething” is a Book that Finally Helps You Remember
For many, misplaced belongings and forgotten appointments spark a panic unrivaled by any crisis. Panic is often amplified by the fear of the early onset of Alzheimer’s. Authors Joan Houlihan and Adam Rosenbaum may have the solution to fretful forgetfulness.
Davis, CA (PRWEB) March 14, 2005 -- Houlihan and Adam Rosenbaum, in their new
book, How to Remember Not to Forget by Joan Who? and Adam Rosensomething, a 103
page self-help book ($11.95, iUniverse, ISBN 0-595-32946-2) currently available
at Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com, break down the causes of a memory not
running at 100%. Termed “Memory Busters,” these causes range from information
overload and inattention – often from long, uninteresting explanations – to
stress, depression, and mindless repetition. For each Memory Buster, the authors
recommend a simple system called Memorology. Houlihan, the creator of Memorology
offers her reason for its creation, “After my husband passed away, I was so
overwhelmed as the single mother of five children that I needed a system to help
me organize my thoughts and my life. Otherwise, I might have forgotten myself!”
How to Remember Not to Forget by Joan Who? and Adam Rosensomething not
only goes into simple solutions like using Post-it® notes or a color-coded
calendar to remember important events, but it also teaches behaviors that work
effectively against the Memory Busters, like always storing your belongings in
the same place to make it easy to remember where you left them.
With
funny examples ranging from a soon-to-be-father forgetting his own name while
checking his wife into the hospital, to the embarrassing moment when Rosenbaum
asks his wife, who he is talking to on his cell phone, where he might have put
his cell phone (because he can’t find it anywhere), How to Remember Not to
Forget by Joan Who? and Adam Rosensomething makes learning to remember an
enjoyable experience. One good read will put your mind, and memory, at
ease.
