RE: I remember the phone number of my EX and I'm PROUD of it! ** digital dementia **
Cool stuff! Do you use some kind of associations for those number combinations? I remember during my speed reading course we were supposed to memorize as many words as possible on the list and I scored like 3x more than the others cuz I made a story out of them. Do u use similar techniques or not at all?
I know exactly what you’re talking about! The type of association I use is like association/relation between the numbers. Sometime hard to explain in words but I look at group of numbers and find relation between them, 5723, 5 is starting digit 7 is 2 more than 5 and next digit after 7 just happens to be 2 so I link those 3 digits together and add the 3 at the end. I’ve always used association long before trying to increase memory this year. After a while, series of numbers become easy to memorize the same way it is to remember numbers like 69, 420, or even 90210. It’s like my phone number 4205723, the 420 is easy to remember already and is like a freebie, so I just find association between the last part the 5723.
I don’t think I’ve every explained this in words, always just thought about it in my head.

Hahaha u got me laughing good on 69, 420, or even 90210 :D
And with 5723 I'd go with remembering 5 and then 7-2=5 and 2+3 equals 5 :D But I get your point..interesting...Best of luck on ur memory mission!
