How to Remember Names

1. Commit

Begin by making a commitment — a conscious decision — to remember people’s names.

Don’t let yourself off easy, blaming a “bad memory.” Forgetting names is due less to a bad memory than to a lack of application. Tell yourself — because it’s true — that you can remember names if you want to and if you work at it.

Before going to a meeting or a party or anywhere you might meet people, remind yourself of your commitment. And recommit yourself: “I will make my best effort to remember the names of the people I meet.”

2. Concentrate

You can only remember what you observe in the first place. If you are distracted or if you aren’t paying attention, you won’t register the person’s name so you can’t possibly remember it. Concentrate, then, on 1) paying attention to the person’s name when you first hear it, and 2) forming an impression of the person.

Listen to the person’s name. If you miss it or find a few seconds later that you’ve already forgotten it, say “I’m sorry I missed your name. Can you give it to me again?” If you still have trouble with it, say, “I’m sorry, but would you spell that out for me?”
Get a clear, detailed impression of the person.
The more vividly you observe people’s physical characteristics, the more likely you are to remember them. Use all of your senses to form the most striking impression possible.
3. Repeat

Repetition helps engrave the name in your memory.

Use the name immediately.
Repeat it silently to yourself.
Comment on the name, if possible.
Use it occasionally in the conversation without overdoing it.
Use it when leaving.
Write it down afterwards.
4. Associate

Try to make an association between the person’s face and an image the name suggests. If you exaggerate the image — make it larger, say — and give it movement — have it slam into some feature of the person’s face, for example — you will make the image even more memorable.

Even if you can’t create an image for the name, don’t despair. Just by working on it, just by trying to figure out an image that goes along with the name, you have reinforced your memory.

If you remember visual images most easily, try creating an image based on the name and linking it to some physical characteristic of the person.

Imagine a ham that weighs a ton spinning on the end of Mrs. Hamilton’s nose.
Picture an old-fashioned car jack under Jack’s prominent jaw.
See margarine melting through Margaret’s curly, blond hair.
If you are more attuned to sounds, make a rhyme, associating the name with your impression of the person. Or link the person’s name to a song lyric.

Dave needs a shave.
Latrice is Patty’s niece.
Michelle, ma belle. (The Beatle’s tune)
If you are more comfortable dealing with sensory feelings and gut instincts, try linking the name to the impression the person makes or to a reaction you have to the person.

Martin Peck is a pain in the neck.
Suzanne Patterson has sweaty palms.
Paula is pushy.
All this takes time and energy and that’s the point. It makes people feel important. It wins you their good will. And it opens the door to successful relationships.

Six Ways to Make People Like You


Dale Carnegie

1 . Become genuinely interested in other people

 I think this means that you are willing to talk to other people with other interest. Basically being a open minded person. Also not being afraid to talk to other people. Be out there and be talkative to people. I think it can also mean to be a good friend and support their interest. It saying to have a decent conversation with that person. Get to know the person little bit more. Learn good things and knowledge from that person. It builds a great connection between you and that person. It opens more opportunities for you


2. Smile

 I think this means that smile is a good thing to do. Whether you're smiling are a stranger or someone you know. Smile is the universal language of kindness. It shows that you are a friendly and approachable people. A smile can make anyone's' day. A smile can make you life easier because you are always happy and less negative. It makes you looks like a fun person to be around with. A smile can bring positively to other people and up lifts them. it makes you feel good about yourself. It will 
make you smile.


3. Remember names 

  It means it good to remember the names of people youve met. It also repectful to rememeber thier names. It shows that you were listening to them. It makes them know that you were interested in them. Remembering names is the starting ponit of making new friends. For example, when you started in a new school or grade you dont know anyone. So the first thing you ask someone what this thier name. From there you can have a conversation and possibly have a new friend. It also important to remember a name for when you need help or an emergancy.


4. Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves

Listening is an attitude of the heart, a genuine desire to be with another. Be a good listener who people who having problem and give them advice. Also make people feel comfortable when you are listening to them. Then they will eventually open up to you. When you are listening to that person make sure youre not juding them or interupting them. Also make sure that you are genuinly listening to them not just nodding your head. Cause the greatest gift you can give another is the purity of your attention. It can make someone day.


5. Talk in terms of the other man's interest 

After you been paying attention to the others been saying. You might get lucky and theyll talk about thier interest. Its cool when the other person has the same interest as you. It pretty easy to form a relationship and conversation like that. For example, Im passionate about arts, tv shows, and music. If i find someone who likes the same thing. Then you can easily talk to them for hours. But if you find a person who not interest in the same things you like. Then show them that you are genuinly listening to them and ask them question about it.



6. Make the other person feel important--and do it sincerely

I think in order to make a person feel important i think you have to make eye contact. Look directly at at them, dont look around because that makes the person feel like youre not listening. Another thing that is important is body language. Dont slouch down or lying around, be in a relaxed position. Also shaking your head vigorously and when its uncessary. Smile is a good one because it uplifting the mood. Finally actually listen to what the person try to say to you. There a difference between hearing the person and listening the person talking.


Reflection: I will commit to apply these ways to my life by making other feel important and making them feel comfortable as well. Also when im talking with someone i barely meet ill make sure to let talk about their interests. Aswell as remembering thier names and genunily listening to them.
