How to memorise a deck of cards. So you want to learn how to memorise a deck of cards, well then this section will show you exactly how to do it.You will be pleased to know that you have done 90% of the work already. You will see how the journey method comes into practice here too, as well as the 100 people you learnt previous to this section, (the Dominic System).So, first things first. You need to be very familiar with your 100 people, you are going to use 40 of them. Be familiar with their actions too, they are very important.The other 12 cards are the Jack, Queen and King. The ace is real simple to learn, take the Ace of Hearts. Well, first take the A in Ace then the H in Hearts. AH is the number 18 from your list of people, in my case that person would be Adolph Hitler.You will do the same for each of the suit cards. You can of course take a look at the list I use to help you along. Link is at the bottom of the page.Lest take a card, the 6 Clubs. That would be SC - Sean Connery (aka James Bond).7 Spades - Grandpa Simpson!Ok, I think you get the picture. Remember, the court cards are important too so make sure you have a person and an action for that card.To remember the cards:Start at stage one of your journey. In my case it would be m bedroom.I turn over the first card. It is the Jack of Clubs. That card is Jack the Ripper the infamous murderer from London.So firstly I am imagining him in my room with blood on his clothes. His action is ripping clothes or flesh with his knife. But I am not going to use his action, I will be using the action of the next person. I turn over the card and it is the 4 of Spades, Delia Smith! Her action is cooking so I would imagine Jack the ripper standing over my bed frying up some sausages!The good thing about doing just one person instead of two means you can incorporate another person into the same room with another action, thus letting you memorise four cards in just the one room!I remember doing this my first time around, it took me about twenty minutes, with a lot of mistakes. Within a few days I was able to memorise the full deck within five minutes and no mistakes. Then I tried two decks of cards, using the exact same method except a different journey after the first 52 cards!About the author: Kevin O'Connor is a memory improvement consultant, exploring memory improvement, learning foreign languages, vedic maths, maths tip and tricks and more!
