Science confirms that forgetting things is actually a sign of very high intelligence

Newsroom March 13 11:25

 

Everyone forgets something from time to time. It can be from leaving an umbrella at a restaurant to an address disappearing from your brain. I myself have a hard time keeping track of all the passwords you have to remember nowadays.

Over the years I have given a try to different memory exercises and tricks to improve my own, but it rarely works for me. Maybe it’s only fair to accept that you’re a bit forgetful and probably good at something else.

However, some time ago, we came by a fantastic research, which is about forgetfulness!
