Review Your Studies
An excellent method of mental development is to make a practice of recalling the occurrences of the day each evening. This is especially important for students. Time should be taken to sit quietly and review the facts and ideas of the day's lessons. Here is an excellent opportunity to urge your mind to think them over for yourself. There can be little growth of knowledge without independent thinking.
Review as much in detail as possible all of today's lessons before starting on the new. One reason you do not remember more of what you see, read, or hear, is that you do not review it. Reviewing carefully will very largely increase your stock of knowledge. It is not unreasonable to expect that some of the facts or experiences of the day's work and lessons will later become as important and valuable as a business man's papers. He does not hesitate to take time in the middle of the day to file these papers, or even to carry them to the vault. Teach the child to take a few minutes in the evening and review the occurrences of the day and you will be surprised to see his mind begin to take on the retentive power of a vault.
