Writing can help a lot but essentially all that we need to create new memories is to fire braincells at the same time to make them connect. Further the repetition is key, best achieved with spaced repetition software.

One of the most important drugs in history - Unfortunately overused by some and therefore destroying it's use in some areas!

Yesh, I heard it is mostly ineffective these days due to resistence.

It still has its use in many areas. Or at least its newer forms have :)

From what I understand, it works beautifully, if you really need it. It's when you don't really need it that it doesn't work as well and creates resistence and other issues.

Most of the time people are too lazy to work with memory techniques. They think it is too troublesome. While they still think that I have memorized 100 facts in 5 minutes and go living my life.

Wow, fascinating methodology. So the intention to improve the memory creates the realization that a methodology would make it easier, which allows the deep reading, eagerness and adoption of your methodology, which is likely superior to any other I've heard so far. People may want to improve their memory because they feel awkward if forgetting something, always want to improve, or because they realize they can draw better conclusions with more information stored for reference. I wonder if you see evidence of the latter from those who use it. Interesting. Thanks!

People have all kinds of reasons to improve their memory. But when they realize that everyone can memorize basically anything in no time which is proven at memory championships all over the world than everyone wants to do it because why shouldn't they? It is a super power hibernating in all of us. By the way these techniques are thousands of years old. I didn't invent any of it.
