So how to properly realize the order of settlement in the various places, in fact, is like building a house, and the scale of the realm, but also different from person to person: Considering the Ricci has a cross Chinese and Western, through the ancient and modern (refers to the classical learning, the ancient theology, and the Western world after the Renaissance) knowledge background, should be called the world of the mind of the magnificent memory palace.
The use of the memory palace method dates back to ancient Rome, and some incredible memory tricks can be attributed to it. For example, Dominic O' Brien, an 8-time world memory champion, was able to memorize the order of all the cards (2,808) on a 54-card table, looking at each card only once. Countless other similar achievements have been made by people through the use of the Memory Palace Method and its variants. There are even several examples in fiction, such as Thomas Harris's novel Hannibal, in which serial killer Hannibal Lecter utilizes memory palaces to store extremely sharp memories of complex medical records over time. (Unfortunately, this was cut from the movie.)
Legend has it that memory palaces were created as a secret art in medieval Europe because printing was not widespread and many books needed to be memorized in the human brain. However, most people thought that those who mastered memory palaces were demons and burned them to death.
With this memory method you must be relaxed and have no distractions.
Choosing your palace
First and foremost, you need to choose a place that you know very well. The effectiveness of this technique depends on your ability to easily recreate the place in your mind and walk through it. You must be able to be there with just your mental "eyes".
For example, a good initial choice could be your home. Remember, the more vividly you can recreate the details of the place, the more effectively you will be able to memorize it.
Secondly, try to identify a particular route through your palace, rather than just recreating a static scene. That is, imagine doing an exhaustive walk-through of your home, rather than simply picturing it. As we'll see in the next step, this will greatly enhance the effectiveness of this technique if you can recall the items in a defined order.
For memory palace selection, here are some other proven recommendations and routes you can take:
Familiar roads in your city. Possible routes such as the ones you drive through on your way to work, or other streets you are familiar with in that order.
Current or former schools. You can imagine the path from your classroom to the library (or to the bar across the street, if that sticks in your mind).
Workplace. Imagine going from your cubicle to the coffee machine, or to your boss's office (it's not hard to pick, is it?).
Scenery. Imagine a walk around the neighborhood or your jogging route in the park.
List the Obvious Features
Now you need to pay attention to the obvious features in your chosen place. For example, if you choose to tour your home, the front door should be the first feature to draw attention.
Continue your virtual walk through your memory palace. What's in the first room after you enter?
Break down this room systematically (you can determine a standard procedure, such as always seeing from left to right). What is the next featured object that catches your attention? It could be a table in the middle of the dining room, or a painting on the wall.
Continue to make mental notes of other feature objects as you go. Each of these will become a "memory slot" that you can use later to store a specific piece of information.
Putting the palace in your mind
The most important thing for this method to work is to get the place or route 100 percent in your mind. Do everything you can to memorize it. If you're good at visualization, this shouldn't be too hard. If not, here are some tips to help:
Walk the route yourself, repeating out loud when you see the obvious features.
Write down a selection of feature objects on a piece of paper, parade them around in your head, and repeat out loud.
Always view those feature objects from the same perspective.
Gotta understand that image thinking is a skill. If you're still having trouble, you might want to go ahead and improve your image thinking skills.
When you believe you've succeeded, repeat the process a few more times. It's important for your memory palace to "practice a lot" your route.
As soon as you're confident that you've ingrained the route in your mind, you're ready. You already have your palace, and it will be able to be used over and over again to memorize whatever you need to remember.

Now you are the master of your palace and can put it to good use.
Like most forms of memory enhancement, the memory palace method works by visualizing associations. The process is simple: you choose a known image - called a memory hook - and combine it with an element you want to remember. For us, a memory hook is a distinct featured object in our memory palace.
While this technique can be useful for remembering a great deal of information, let's start with a simple one: use the memory palace of "home" to remember a shopping list. Let's say the first item on the list is "cured meats".
Let your mind send you to your memory palace. The first feature you see in your mind's eye is the front door of your house. Now, in a comical way, visualize what "cured meat" looks like and what your front door looks like. For example, how about imagining giant strips of cured meat coming out from underneath the door like B-movie zombies and reaching for your legs? Feel the "cured meat hand" on your leg. Feel the evil fucking smell of cured meat. That's impressive enough, isn't it?
Now open the door and continue along the route you've already determined. The next feature you see, associate it with the next item to be memorized. For example, the next item is "egg" and the second feature is "picture of mother-in-law". Good, at this point you know what to do ...... The program is the same, just keep the mental picture associations going until you have all the items memorized.
Visit your palace
By this one step, you have memorized those items. But if you're a novice, you may still need to do a little bit of review, and rehearse the itinerary in your head at least once.
If you start in the same place and follow the same route, what to remember will instantly come to mind whenever you see selected feature objects along the way. The route goes from start to finish, noting those feature objects and replaying the scene in your head. When your journey ends, turn around and walk back to your starting point from the opposite direction.
In the end it's all about enhancing your visualization skills. The more relaxed you are the easier this will be and the better you'll remember it.
Final Thoughts
What I like about memory palaces (and other linked methods) is that they are not only very effective, but they are fun to learn and use.
With just a little experience, the catalogs you memorize with a memory palace will be fresh in your mind for many days, weeks, and even longer.
Be aware that you can create as many palaces as you want, as simple or as elaborate as you wish. Each one of them is a "memory bank" ready to help you remember anything.
The connection between objective places and thinking concepts is the most powerful memory combination I know of, and the principle behind most other memory techniques (which are often much more complex than memory palaces) is, at least in part, the use of objective places as a memory hook.
