Absolute beginner, any guidance?

Hey everyone, I read the book Moonwalking with Einstein a couple of months ago and now have 2-3 months of spare time so decided I would give this forum a go. I read through the e-book and some of the discussions but there seems to be vast amounts of information on really niche topics. In short, how and where do I start? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Josh, glad to be here. I have read through both links, where do you suggest I go from here? My “goal” is to participate in memory sports in 1-2 years time however I understand that building a foundation is key. What should be my next steps?

Welcome! Alternatively, you can read my articles. They reveal a theory that can help you move forward.

Sorry for the delay in replying.

Have you tried Memory League yet? You don’t need to wait 1-2 years before participating in memory sports. :slight_smile:

Try the images game first. Simon’s peg list system works well. It’s described here:

To find tips for each event, you can search the forum with queries like this:

Include the #memory-league hashtag in the search box to limit the search to the Memory League topics.
