Proceed in the same way as before, but do not go on with the list until you have visualized the picture clearly. A dim picture will not last long and will be recalled with difficulty, if at all. Church and Rocks Not stones, but great, rough, rugged rocks piled high. See them clearly, let them fall on the Church and damage it. When recalling your pictures you will need to be sure of the object and to recall the exact word. The ability to do this will depend upon the vividness and definiteness of the picture as you see it the first time. Rocks and Auto Here is an opportunity to imagine and picture an auto accident. Make your own picture and photograph it upon your mind. Proceed with a few more pictures, making each clear and definite and do not yet attempt to recall them; just visualize each two objects in turn. Auto and Shoes Shoes and Dishes See each two objects in a separate Memory Picture. Now review the list beginning with House and Clock, Clock and Flowers, etc. Let one picture suggest the next in which one object of the preceding picture always appears. Repeat the list slowly, recalling the two objects in each picture. Do this without looking at the list; there are ten separate objects you can check by keeping count. House and Clock. Clock and Flowers. Flowers and Circus. Circus and Soldier. Soldier and Church. Church and Rocks. Rocks and Auto. Auto and Shoes. Shoes and Dishes. Review the ten pictures until they can be recalled without difficulty, and until all are clear and distinct. Each time you review, see the same picture as originally made, do not change it, except to add more Exaggeration, Motion or Detail each time and make it more distinct and definite. You will have experienced the fact, that in each case where you made and visualized a good picture you remembered the words without difficulty. Where the picture is not strong you have trouble in recalling the word. Any picture that can not be recalled easily can be made to do so by adding more of the three elements, Exaggeration, Motion and the Unusual. Take the poorest picture, the one most difficult to recall, exaggerate the size of the objects, or make them move farther or faster, stand them on their heads or do any thing unusual and see how much easier you can recall it the next time.
