Are you so scatterbrained, looking for a pen which is tucked neatly in your ear?

Are you a scatterbrain? Like looking for your eye glasses when it's on top of your head? or looking for a pen, which is neatly tucked behind your ears? Or you didn't know where you've placed your loose change, now imagine if you've forgotten to wear your undies. Are you such a scatterbrain? If you are , then you can improve your focus and concentration. The mind is also a muscle that needs to be exercised so that it could function well. Mind games, like word puzzles, chess, etc , could help you exercise your brain. For mor information on how to increase your memory, read this article: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2184229/how_you_can_improve_your_memory.html?cat=5
Now, don't wait for your memory to fail you, exercise it!

One trick I like to use is to remember something is to tie a string around my finger to remind me. Don't laugh, it works! If you are having problems remembering things, or need to improve your study habits, you should check out http://www.secretstoimprovememory.com/site-map/

I don't put a pen behind my ear, so I've never had that problem...honestly, I think mine is worse. I will panic looking for my cell phone and look everywhere for it before realizing that I am talking to someone on it who is laughing at me while I tell them what I'm searching for. My grandmother does it too, but she gets frustrated at herself. I end up laughing and moving on with my life. :)

This is similar to a duh discussion which I responded to recently. Where I was running back and forth from the garage to the bedroom looking for the car keys I had in my hand. I was getting frustrated, and I just couldn't find those damned keys. Finally when I calmed down, I realized I had it in my hand all along.
So, sometimes it's just not poor memory, but could be something else. Like too much anxiety.
