You can learn the method of loci (also known as "art of memory"), a very efficient memory technique that unlocks the potential to remember things you never dreamt of remembering, like a long list of digits. The steps of memorizing are: - choose a journey of specific locations to look at that you already know (like going around the place you live, look at your bed, then your desk, then at the door of your room, etc) - at every location you visualize a mental picture, whose components code for the information you want to remember When you want to retrieve the info, go through the journey, find the pictures, and decode them into the info you want. Obviously, the thing that requires some work is the code. A simple code for numbers would be to assign to every digit to a consonant sound, and make words with those consonants, filling gaps with free/non coding vowels. For example (I'm French and adapted my French code here, so this code might be unadapted for the frequency of English consonants, but you may change it as you see fit): - 0 to Z/soft S (zero starts with z) - 1 to L (they look like) - 2 to N (2 vertical bars in 'n') - 3 to M (3 vertical bars in 'm') - 4 to R (four ends with r) - 5 to V (five ends with v) - 6 to S (six ends with a S sound) - 7 to T (7 looks like a reversed t) - 8 to Sh/Ch (eight contains an H, which is pronounced with a sh) - 9 to B (b looks like a reversed 9) Now, you can use this consonants (actually, consonants sounds rather than the letters) to form words that are easy to visualize. 94 could be a BeeR, 30 a MaZe, 18 a LeaSH, and so on. You can also combine the words in some ways to remember more info per location. Memory athletes spend a lot of time training their journeys and codes and stuff to achieve some amazing/unbelivable performances (http://world-memory-statistics.com/disciplines.php http://world-memory-statistics.com/disciplines.php), but it's an extremely gratifying skill that develops really fast. If you have aphantasia or a hard time orienting yourself though, it's probably not for you, but I would estimate that at least 95% of people can develop a seemingly amazing memory with this method.
