Are you struggling to remember certain telephone numbers, birth dates, pin numbers, or any other number for that matter?
Well, you are not alone. - It is a known fact that our brain remembers words and objects easier than numbers.
By creating word associations from a number, those hard to remember numbers suddenly gets easy and fun to remember.
Name My Number is a tool that makes numbers easy to remember.
You can create words from any number you would like.
How does it work?
Some of you may know the technique as "Phone spell". Or you may have used Vanity numbers.
Lets say that you for some reason wanted to remember the number: 246265283.
It may be hard to remember that number, at least it you need to remember it for a while.
Here is what you do:
You find your Name My Number app, enter the numbers and press play.
One of the result is "Chocolate".
Chocolate is much easier to remember than 246265283.
So you remember the word, and you can forget about those meaningless numbers.
When you need to recall your number, you think of the word chocolate. Then when you "dial" the characters out on a keypad, you get your number. (C=2, H=4, O=6, C=2, O=6 ... ).
You can dial the number either "mentally" or by looking at a phone or a similar keypad.
Not only does this make it easier for you to remember your number, it is also handy if you'd like to communicate you number to other people. - "You can reach me at 555-1nerd4hire."
