Week Two To Improve My Memory in 6 Weeks

I have just had my second session of my memory coaching from Bill Aronson after, a very busy week with work & charity events. However, I still managed to do my online course that only took me about an hour.

Over the last week I have started to take action from the suggestions I have learnt already.

These such as:

• The FAST approach Forgetting negative experiences & protecting time for me to learn new techniques. Taking Action to improve my life, State: thinking more about my feelings, personal needs & of course as any student does Taking Notes!
• So from changing passwords to managing my personal expectations and stopping multi tasking it feels as if things are a little clearer already. Of course I want evidence to prove this so know if it is worth doing it already!
• Interestingly when I gave a speech last night at a big charity event and used some of these tips I found I wasn't holding on to my notes it just flowed naturally! I have had a lot of experience of public speaking over the years and having to change my short speeches at the very last minute for various reasons. However, it felt weird as I just thought go for it Aston leave the paper crutch you know this stuff!!
• Also, I was using remembering by association which drew together my visual, sound & logic skills and actually made it easier!

So this really so far feels good so fingers crossed keeps helping. However, 5 weeks to go so watch this space!

Think this interview with Bill has really helped me too so will share again!

How to remember names

As Bill always says learning is not complete until you give it away, so I am sharing with you all.

Thanks for reading.

FREE #PR & Marketing demands in 2015

A friend of mine shared this link and so pleased they did. Why? Because, it helped the ‪#‎Monarchyonline‬ realise we can't offer other charities or companies FREE PR Work anymore. These organisations must invest and raise their skills or outsource to keep up with market demands.

#MS UK DAY 2014 celebrates 21 years of support for MS

#MS UK Day 2014

MS UK is celebrating 21 years of providing support for people affected by MS. 

It was great to catch up with MS UK recently to see their head office and Joseph court in Essex fitness & exercise centre. We also shared the latest news about my work for MS with various global partners that are helping to spread the word to help recognise and provide support.

I am so excited by the support for MS that is happening in the UK and globally. In particular the Royal College of Nursing or RCN is really keen to help me in with the challenges of adherence and compliance with MS treatments such as, regularly taking the medication prescribed to help stop the progression of the condition in many cases.

These challenges are not just about taking tablets but also for lifestyle changes that may help with difficult symptoms that MS might cause problems with. Additionally, this is not just an MS challenge compliance difficulties can affect any health condition and sadly it does.

On the 4th of August I will be supporting MS UK with a twitter campaign using various # (hash tags) that I have shared the benefit of using to help people quickly find and share information through social media.

For this latest project I will be using #MSUKDAY along with other # hash tags they have now set up.

Further information is included in the article, below, from the new pathways magazine that MS UK produces for members of their organisation. Why not checkout MS UK WEBSITE for further information or have a look at my website Kazaston.com and our London MS Clear guide page London Msclearguide on Facebook provided FREE by qualified MS medical professionals because we want to help people with MS and not make a profit or ask for money to do this work.

Thanks again to everyone that has helped with this work in particular the MS unit at Charing Cross hospital in London. Additionally, Rotary in London especially the London & Barkingside clubs. The support Rotary has given and also does internationally Free of Charge has constantly been offered which is truly amazing and helps so many people that might need a helping hand or information.

Don't forget if you use twitter pop #MSUKDAY in your tweets to help support raising awareness about MS.  Will keep you posted on how we get on with our #MSDAYUK mission :)
