Memories form through encoding, storage, and retrieval. Attention and emotion boost the process.
Forgetting isn’t failure—it’s filtering. Interference, decay, and lack of retrieval cues play a role.

Yes! Use repetition, visualization, sleep, and mnemonic devices to boost recall and retention.
From remembering names to life lessons, memory connects the past to our present. Use it wisely.
