“I know you think I’m tripping right about now… But you ain’t e’em got to worry… I’ll be right backpack…”
-IF Archer
One of the first books I read at the start of my journey to a transformed life was Moonwalking with Einstein by Joshua Foer.
The author describes a practice of categorizing information into a series of familiar places and experiences.
The phrase “memory palace” is actually one of many terms derived from a spatial memory technique referred to as the method of loci.
By placing new information into the setting of a familiar memory, the practitioner becomes better equipped to organize, and ultimately, recall specific details more readily.
King Blvd and Wall St is the “memory palace” for everything I have learned, and continue to learn, about the markets as well as business.
How is this applicable to trading???
Let’s look at it from a Djed High View…
