Thinking too hard can trip your memory
Have you ever run into an acquittance and could not remember his or her name? That mental block happens to everyone. It happened to me just yesterday when I racked my head for 30 minutes trying to recall the name of a person with whom I'd just carried on a conversation. No matter how hard I tried to remember, I couldn't match the face with a name -- even as I was talking to him!It wasn't until later last night when I was relaxed on the couch that it came to me. It was the iconic "Aha!" moment. Scientists have been studying that mental breakthrough moment for a while now, and they've finally made a connection to mental blocks and the "Aha!" instances that follow.
Well it turns out the best way to remember, is to just forget it! Put it away and try not to think about whatever is giving you such a hard time. The lead researcher on the project says you must be "relaxed, to allow the spontaneous, free-floating ideas to emerge." If you mull over it too much, you're just going to muddy the water even more. This makes perfect sense, because remember names was the last thing on my mind last night.
