Challenge 2: Create a memory palace
- For this practice challenge, you're going to apply the principles of a memory palace to memorize this list of 10 grocery store items. Here are your objectives. The first objective is to come up with a list of 10 locations in your home. The first location can be the first spot you encounter when coming back home. For example, location number one can be your front door, your mailbox or your garage. The second location could be your door or hallway. The 10 locations should be ordered in a logical way based on how you would enter and walk around through your home. The second objective is to visually associate each location with it's matching number on the grocery list. Don't spend more than 10 minutes coming up with your visual associations. When you're done, check out my solution video to see how I solved this challenge.
