MEMORY

How often do we confuse memory with intelligence? or is there a difference?
Are the kids that do the best in school the smartest or do they have the best memory? or is it the same?
Do we get smarter as we grow older? or do we just have more facts stored in our memory?
What sticks in our memory and what doesn't? Why is that?
Are all experiences stored in our memory even if we can't recall them?
Is intelligence the brain's ability to use it's memory.
For sure, memory is basic to learning. It would be well to practice memorizing.

Some treat memory as a sport. See www.worldmemoryclub.com/ It is mesmerizing!
