Talk about dragging on.....

I have had an accident and been advised to buy these books to help with my memory loss.

This book falls into the usual self help book catogory. It is 99% of the author praising a book he picked up before he was able to do anything for himself and magically turned him into a succesful person all because he found a secret within that book when he was younger.

Why don't they just stop trying to create a book with a certain amount of words in so they can call it a book and get mugs like me to buy it.

Just tell us the name of the book that magically changed their life and really help people instead of making me listen to the same boring stories you get in stop smoking, self help, improve your mind etc. (I have stopped smoking by myself. No help from any book)

oh, the book is not too helpful improving my memory but did help me improve falling asleep quicker.

As you can tell, I'm still looking for a good self help, stop being grumpy book.

Great book

Excellent book. Really inspiring.
I haven't come across many books as this one, in which all information presented is "quality" information. There is nothing to take away. Much more than a book about memory, the author shared with us principles that can also be used for self-development: discipline, focus...
I have really enjoyed the book and really want to work on my memory.

Has helped me a lot.

Absolutely loved it - although it was quite long. Quite funnily it's about improving memory and, I had to listen to it 3 times because I'd forgotten what was said before in earlier chapters. The third time I wrote down notes of the techniques and tried them out. I tried a game with my siblings, to give me a list of 20 random objects in an order. And to their suprise I recalled them immediately afterwards. it was something like: apple, bed, carrot, dinosaur, elephant, flamingo, banana, shoes, igloo, etc etc. and my story went like: I was sitting on my bed eating a red apple, and I dropped my carrot. Then I looked outside the window and saw a huge T-rex dinosaur eating an elephant which was sitting on top of a bright pink flamingo. I ran downstairs and slipped on a banana so hard that my shoes flew off. I ran outside and it was snowing and I spotted a huge igloo in the neighbour's garden etc. (I'm really surprised I can still remember all of them now even 3 days after this happened, and I didn't even review it since then). It was very funny and amazing when I had explained and told the whole story out loud. Right now it's a cool party trick, but with enough practise I'm confident using all the techniques in this book that this could be utilised in a much more useful manner.

It says "Kevin Horsley" On The Tin....

but its not narrated by him. 3 minutes in to the far-too-fast narration with an annoying American (?) type accent I have decided its going back and I shall go back to watching Kevin on youtube with his beautiful Safa accent, passion and energy. The current narrator rattles it down like its a shopping list, no passion and the emphasis all wrong. I know there are some authors who can't narrate their own works, not everyone who can write well can read aloud but Kevin is a very accomplished and practiced speaker so there's really no excuse.

Good listening

First of all was it boring definitely not
Second it was presented excellently, why you buy this book to learn simple fact
The facts concepts are eloquently presented in such a manner, that makes you want to continue.
I never thought I would say this but truthfully learning is and shall remain a pleasure, I also have the book and am reading that in conjunction with the audio , to the author my sincerest thanks and yes I shall finish the book because that is really helping me with the review
Kindest regards

Best Audio Book ever

I listen to it so many times. it is a fantastic book with plenty of tools for personal development.This audio book helped me memorise the entire A level economics book, gain confidence and enter the never ending ability to store precious memories for ever.

keep a open mind

a lot of work one must do, this is the true challenge what i learned from this book

Great intro to memory techniques

This is a great first stop in your memory improvement journey. I was already pretty familiar with some techniques after reading Tony Buzan, but the body and car technique are helpful variations on a theme. I listened while walking the dog in the mornings and used the beginning visualisation in the book to go on to memorize all of the Presidents using images along my dog walk!

The book doesn't go into depth and only really touches on the capabilities of the memory, but it's a simple and straightforward introduction that doesn't overwhelm you. Highly recommend.
