Have you ever met someone only to realize that you forgot their name 10 minutes later?
What about opening motivational speech up your computer only to forget five seconds in why you were opening it up in the first place?
Memory plays a crucial role in helping us navigate our daily life effectively, from the most minuscule daily reminder to drop off a package or pick up a gift to the most critical tasks like remembering to talk to a colleague or adding a final touch before submitting an important work proposal.
Fortunately, according to learning expert Jim Kwik, there’s a lot we can do to improve not only our working memory but also how effectively our brains function in general.
Below are Jim Kwik’s top 10 brain hacks to optimize your memory.
1. A good brain diet
The number one brain hack on Kwik’s list, a good brain diet is critical for optimizing memory and realizing your brain’s full potential.
Foods that are great for memory and brain function include:

Avocado
Blueberries
Broccoli
Coconut oil
Eggs
Green leafy vegetables
Salmon
Sardines
Walnuts
Pumpkin seeds
Dark chocolate
And turmeric

2. Kill ANTs
Yes, Jim wants you to kill ANTs. But not those kinds of ants, fortunately.
Originally coined by Dr. Daniel Amen, ANTs refers to “Automatic Negative Thoughts.” These negative thoughts preoccupy the mind as the brain constantly checks in with this negative self-talk, which takes time and energy you could be using for other things.
The most prominent ANTs which we need to work to cut out or replace with more positive ones are, according to Dr. Amen:

Fortune telling: This is when you try to psych yourself out and assume the worst.
Mind reading: This is often what we do when we worry about what others think of us. We don’t actually know, we’re just assuming what they’re thinking about us– and motivational speech it’s often negative.
Guilt beatings: The way we talk to ourselves can either bring us up or beat us down. Amen’s example is great, “Telling yourself ‘I should go see my grandmother’ rather than ‘I want to spend time with my grandmother’ only serves to make you feel negative.”
Blame: Self-explanatory– thoughts about blaming others for our problems, making ourselves out to be the victim.
And labelling: Any time we call ourselves or another a derogatory name. This often skews our perception of a situation in a negative light.

3. Physical exercise
Physical motivational speech exercise has a myriad of health benefits, but many don’t know just how much exercising helps the brain as well.
Working out has been shown to improve mental acuity, focus, reduce stress, and increase energy, making it an invaluable tool for anyone looking to “maximize their tool,” so to speak.
4. Supplement for brain nutrients
Motivational speech important to get a good idea of what nutrients your diet might be lacking and, if you can’t correct it in your diet, supplement to make up for the deficiency.
This especially includes things like B vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to improve brain function but can be difficult to come by (especially if you have a unique diet). If nothing else, a simple multivitamin can help cover the bases well.
5. A positive peer group
