Remember names when you meet people
-
Actually hear it first.
Most forgotten names were never heard: you were rehearsing your own introduction. Listen for it deliberately.
-
Say it back within seconds.
"Nice to meet you, Maria." One repetition at the start doubles retention.
-
Hook it to something visible.
Rhyme, job, resemblance to someone you know. The sillier the hook, the stickier.
-
Use it once more before parting.
A natural goodbye with the name closes the loop.
-
Write it down after.
Phone note with context: "Maria, Lena’s neighbour, plays volleyball." Names survive in sentences.

#1 becomes the Core. This atoma is young: submit a better distillation and take the seat.
No gear needed. Your pot, a timer and ice are enough. That is the point.
