Improve memory
Hey everyone,
Do you also deal with memory loss in your late 20s or is it just me? For the past couple of months, I keep forgetting things. I used to have good memory
Is there anything you know or do to improve it?
These past 6 months my performance at work has been dwindling and one primary reason I attribute is memory loss. I find it difficult to recall key points of mails, design reviews, MoMs etc. and often end up missing out things at assigned tasks. What's scarier is that it not only applies to new concepts, I often find myself forgetting even formerly familiar things. During morning updates and discussions I find myself giving uncertain inputs and asking shaky questions because I find it hard to remember key terms, figures etc. I sometimes even forget to pick up some assigned tasks altogether. Random brain freezes have become everyday affair. . Sleep-wise it has been little medium-poor but not so bad that could explain such drastic changes. I'm 30 yr old, male, unmarried and don't have any major health issues (except some stress / anxiety and accompanying Irritable Bowel Syndrome condition). . If anyone else experienced this, how have you dealt with it?
Mobile addiction, screen is burning brain cells -
This^ plus covid induced brain fog and long covid effects in many people as well.
Some had body pain, some had brain fog and memory loss, some had irritable stomachs, some had lung or heart damage. Different symptoms across the board.
So many people are unknowingly handicapped yet trudging on the best they can. But many are also struggling.
+1 long covid. Not enough blood supply or neurones firing
Yes everyone experiences this I sometimes forget what I was working on I forget things in short term I don’t know if it’s some kind of coping mechanism The only solution is to write stuff or journal not just personal but work stuff too. I used to have Jira but now I have a piece of notebook with me too giving me the top priority tasks.
Used to face this a lot. Got in the rabbit hole of personal productivity. Key learning has been that you need offload as much info as possible in todo (if it’s a thing to be done)/notes (for references or anything other than a todo) apps.
Try apps that have quick capture functionality and works across platforms. This way you don’t have an excuse for not using the he app.
Setup an inbox system for everything and review inbox everyday. This was a game changer for me. Helps me stay on top of everything in my personal as well as work life.
You can read up a bit more on key concepts of GTD/Para method. There is no one fit all, but it’s a great place to get started.
Same I’m just 24 ffs I forget names of people, especially movie stars who I used to recognise just by looking at them. My memory is actually fried. Scared for long term😭

Does this happen to you'll also, where you forget name/keyword and then it take allot of mental pushing/effort to get back it to your mind.
And the you think am I having a problem? is it something that happens to me only or others also...
Is it common for someone in mid 20s experience diminishing attention span and mental fatigue? Any advices on how to keep brain active like it was before. (I can literally feel the difference)
