“Unlimited Memory” by Kevin Horsley is an extraordinary book that offers a comprehensive exploration of memory techniques. Having read multiple books on this subject, I can confidently say that this is the most extensive, easily comprehensible, and effective resource I have come across.From cover to cover, I was captivated by the wealth of knowledge presented in this book. I found myself highlighting numerous sections and frequently revisiting them for reinforcement. The author’s ability to convey complex concepts in a straightforward manner is commendable, making the learning process enjoyable and highly effective.It is astonishing to discover that the memory-enhancing techniques discussed in the book have not been widely implemented in modern-day early childhood education. The results obtained by applying these methods, both for myself and many others, are remarkable. While it does require some time to internalize and integrate these techniques into one’s thinking and memory processes, this is to be expected when undergoing a complete transformation. After approximately six months of consistent practice, I have successfully incorporated the Car, Body, Peg, and Journey methods into my daily routine. Although the book introduces a few more techniques, these are the ones I consistently employ.As I progressed through the book, I found it increasingly perplexing that such a powerful and easily applicable system had not yet become mainstream. However, I cannot stress enough the incredible impact it has had on my life. Implementing these techniques truly feels like unlocking a superpower. One key aspect that has significantly aided my progress is the emphasis on regular review. As the book explains, even when memories have been linked to long-term memory, revisiting and reliving those memories is crucial for accurate recall.In conclusion, “Unlimited Memory” by Kevin Horsley is a game-changer for anyone seeking to tap into their memory potential. With its comprehensive approach, user-friendly style, and transformative techniques, this book stands as an invaluable resource. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their memory capacity and enjoy the benefits of improved recall. Prepare to unlock your memory prowess and embark on a journey of limitless possibilities!

When I first saw this book, I was very skeptical. There is a very bold insinuation made in the title. But because it was on sale on Kindle for $1.49 the day I bought it, I decided it was worth the purchase. A few days later, after finishing the book, I am ready to call this one of the best and certainly most useful non-fiction books I have ever read, and I am a very avid reader.If you allow this book to change the way you learn, then this book is easily worth 20x the cover price for the keys and tools Horsley provides you with because you’ll finally be able to overcome that old adage that claims that we only use about 10% of our brains.Like most of us, I’ve always just accepted the limitations that seem inherent with owning a brain, and I’ve become satisfied that I’ll never be able to use more than “10%” as if it is not even realistic to tap into significantly more than that. However, this book invites you to throw away those limitations and strive for more. And Horsley’s methods are not difficult to put into practice. They only require commitment, practice, and review. He compares it to taking your mind to the gym for a regular workout.Some of the strategies that he teaches near the beginning of the book may sound familiar to you, but read on. All the way through to the end. Have fun with the book. Practice what he is teaching you at each and every step along the way. You’ll find some of the methods more useful to you than others, but you will find all of them legitimately helpful. Use any information that you want to learn as your training material, and you will see for yourself that these methods work. I’m not even going to give you any examples in this review because you really need to experience it for yourself.I will say this… usually, after I read a book, I never read it again. Not so with this one. This book is worth my reading every week because I want to practice, learn, and remember all of these methods. Horsley says, “Your mind is the only computer in the world with this characteristic: the more you put into it, the more it holds.” His methods illustrate this truth very clearly.I only wish I could have discovered this book when I was in high school or college. The great thing about learning though is that you always have opportunities to learn more, and all of us could use these methods to be more successful in any area of our lives, personal or professional. This book is going to open up an unlimited world to you, if you are willing to make some changes in the way you think.

This book is an easy read and quite enjoyable. Horsley breaks down the myths of memory that demotivate too many people from bringing out their potential. He gets straight to the point on the methods yet knows when to slow down the pace and take things step by step and guess what? It works.Horsley is right: to really learn something is to remember it; the better we can store and recall information, the more powerful and fluid learners we become. And we all know that the ability to learn only empowers us with more knowledge and opportunities. Thus, a stronger memory muscle is the best starting point for any life improvement.What I really enjoyed the most, though, is that Horsley also – like a true master and teacher – is very clear on the reality of this training: you must be willing to practice, let your imagination run wild, be cuckoo with your images, and be dedicated. Life changes don’t just HAPPEN…they are forged. And this book is (surprisingly, I’ll admit, but delightfully surprising) a solid tool in doing just that.But to balance the cold cut of reality the book is also filled with many motivational quotes, facts, and powerful knowledge from other great books such as The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Steven Covey (a book I highly recommend as well).It works AND it’s also quite fun. Doing the examples given I often found myself laughing at my own results. Holy crap, I’d think, this may actually be possible to master.I’m already planning my training and practice and I can’t wait to see what improvements I can make!

I found it practical and helpful. It won’t be worth reading if you not prepared to try some of the exercises.

I liked the part where you learn by using a car for each word. I also liked the mind mapping. I liked most of this book and how it was written. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to remember long term.

I recommend this book.It is one of the few of its subject matter written by a man who has competed and succeeded at passing tests in international memory competitions.He does not sugar coat the need for initial effort spent learning the systems, and does not belabor the obvious need & benefits of practice.He does not over-complicate the systems that he does introduce.AFTER finishing this book a little extra reading in the subject area, proved that without using the more commonly recognized terms, Mr. Horsley covered many areas of value including the “Major System” for handling the memorization of numbers based on a method of translating numbers into sounds.I suspect that what practice reveals to some readers..(like me).. about the gaps in their understanding, will motivate them to fill those gaps and practice some more.We all learn differently, & for this reason Mr. Horsley’s book is a decent springboard from which to launch oneself into the act of mental improvement.The “Aha” moment before I wrote this review relates to a deeper understanding of the “Journey Method”.Be sure to visit a few internet forums that discuss the practice of memory techniques and light your own lamp out of the darkness.2015-02-23 UPDATEThere are a few points that Mr. Horsley doesn’t explicitly state, that are worth mentioning.1. The words created by the system he introduces in Chapter 12, can be used to create “Peg words” that upon creation are automatically organised in order. Create them, borrow from other people’s lists if you have to and take the time to organise your source material so you rank the items/concepts to be remembered in numerical order.2. Intimately familiarize yourself with the meaning of the word “INCONGRUOUS”. It conveys in less than a sentence how to form images that “stick.” (E.g. A bear with wings stuck to a honey pot”)3. After you read Chapter 9, and start trying things on your own…. WRITE DOWN your “markers” or places along the journey or “objects” within the room.Like with anything else, that handwriting, eye, brain thing seems to add stickiness.2016-08-17 UPDATEChecked my “Manage Your Content and Devices” section and discovered there is an update to this book. I am not sure what has changed yet.Sincerely,Simple Guy.

I have struggled with memory for many years now. My lack of ability to create new memories or even remember where I’m at mid-conversation has left me embarrassed, taken advantage of, and set myself up to be gaslit. This book has been the first glimpse of hope that I’ve had that I can change it and strengthen my memory. Currently i am delving in to the world of voice over narration and acting, and the principals in this book are allowing me to retain what i am learning and actively move forward. The activities in this book were not only easy to follow, but easy to remember. Thank you, Kevin, this is literally a life-changer for me!
