It's always good to have a plan. However big or complex your task may look at first sight, with a feasible plan you can always find a way to manage it。

有一个计划总是好的。然而不管乍一看这任务有多庞大，或是有多复杂，如果有一个可行的计划，你总能找到一种管理方法。

When studying, break your biggest goal into smaller chunks or tasks. It's best if each of these chunks consists of a single topic. Often, you'll discover one or two key elements that stand out and get fixed in your mind. You can then use those as building blocks。

在学习的时候，将你最大的目标或任务分解成许多小块。最好是每一小块都是一个单一主题。通常，你会发现一个或两个明显的关键元素，并扎根在你的头脑里。那么你就可以使用这些作为构建模块了。

Classic tricks used by memory professionals include "the house of memory" where you place everything you want to remember in unique locations in the house. It's also useful to use humor — play with your key-words and make them funny or outrageous. You'll be surprised at how much easier they are to memorize。

记忆大师使用的经典伎俩包括“房子记忆术”，你把所有你想记住的全部定位到房子里一处独特的位置。使用幽默手法同样有用，赋予关键词有趣或惊奇的意义。你会对这么容易就记住它们而感到惊讶。
