People with poor memories often additionally suffer from problems with concentration. It makes sense that someone who has difficulty concentrating will also have trouble remembering. After all, if you can absorb the material in the first place, you certainly won’t be able to remember it later.
Fortunately there are a number of tricks for improve concentration. One of the most intriguing is the use of the color red.
A recent study in the journal “Science” showed that red helped the study participants improve concentration as well as memory. Apparently the color red stimulates the part of the brain associated with your ability to focus.
In an opposite way, study participants who were exposed to blue suffered from impaired concentration and memory.
So what’s the lesson here? If you need to focus, look at something red. Maybe paint a wall in your office red, wear a red shirt, or place red knicknacks on your desk.

There are some beautiful botanical gardens near where I live, and I have taken several tours of their grounds in order to get some ideas for my own garden. With summer approaching, I wanted to be able to keep my plants and flowers well hydrated without wasting city water, so I asked one of the volunteers about using echo rain barrels to water my garden. She said that they had several of them at the botanical garden, and she showed me how they work. I liked the simplicity that they offered, and that I would be making the most of any rainfall that we would get by putting it back into my garden.

When my brother and his wife first got married, they started traveling immediately. At first, they didn’t even consider getting health insurance, because it wasn’t offered by either of their day jobs, but after a small accident, they knew that having at least some cheap health insurance was the responsible thing to do.

They travel regularly, and now they can travel with their new insurance, and be worry-free
