Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Write out the entire speech and read it out loud. Split the speech into short chunks that are 2-3 sentences long. Practice the first chunk of your speech until you can fully recall it. Add more and more chunks to your recall. Continue this process until you've memorized the whole speech.

Answer: To cement the speech in your head, you need to write it out in its complete form. This includes the introduction, body, and conclusion of the speech. Reading the speech aloud will also allow you to hear how it sounds thematically, as well as keep more of your senses engaged in the memorization process. You should write out the entire speech even if you do not plan on memorizing it verbatim. The point is not to memorize it right now, but to get a sense of how the speech reads and flows. If at all possible, try to read the speech in the place you will deliver it. The acoustics of every room and setting vary somewhat, so reading your speech in the actual delivery location can help you get accustomed to the way your voice will sound from that spot. Additionally, it helps you get comfortable with the layout of the room, making it possible for you to rehearse your movements as well as your words. The chunks can be sentences that are on the same topic or they can be organized based on how difficult they are for you to remember. The goal should be for you to know which parts of the speech you need to work on memorizing the most. Take the time to actually mark off each section or chunk of information in your written notes. This can make it easier for you to recall when one part ended and when the next part picks up as you practice, making it harder for you to accidentally forget or leave any parts out. Practice reciting this first chunk of information out loud while referring to your notes as little as possible. Once you're able to recite the entire chunk without having to look at your notes at all, consider this chunk memorized. If you get stuck, do not immediately return to your notes. Start from the beginning and try to say the chunk again. If this fails, spend a few more moments trying to recall the missing information. When you decide that nothing can help you remember it, return to your notes and briefly look up what the missing part consisted of. When you finish memorizing a chunk of your speech, read through it again to verify that you have it correct. Once you finish recalling the first chunk successfully, add a second chunk to it, repeating both until the second chunk can be recited from memory, as well. Be sure to memorize chunks that appear sequentially in your speech, since this is the order that you'll have to recall them in later on. It is important that you continue repeating previously memorize chunks so that you do not forget them. Moreover, repeating all chunks of your speech together will help you to memorize how each chunk fits together with the rest. Continue practicing your speech out loud without looking at your notes. If you have trouble remembering a certain chunk, isolate it and focus on recalling it from memory before trying to weave it back into the speech as a whole. Regardless of which memorization tactics you use and how effective they are, the most valuable thing you can do for yourself is to practice the speech as often as possible. Practice your speech from memory as best as possible. You can refer to your notes when you get stuck but deliver as much as possible without your notes. Try to practice your speech from memory for at least half of your practices, if not more.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use a domestic option instead of buying stock directly. Choose an online broker Opt for a diversified investment vehicle. Discuss your incurred tax liability with your broker or accountant.

Answer: If you want to gain exposure to the Japanese market, your best options are ETFs, ADRs, or domestic-issued investment funds. Buying and managing stock directly through the Tokyo Stock Exchange is impractical if you're not fluent in Japanese, knowledgeable about Japanese brokers, and well-versed in the tax systems of both Japan and your nation. Unless you're an experienced trader, purchasing foreign equities directly could result in high costs and tax implications. , if you haven't already. You'll need a brokerage account to purchase shares in investment funds that trade stock in Japanese companies. You have a choice between full-service and discount brokers. Full-service firms offer extensive investment advice, but charge higher fees. Discount firms are cheaper, but they offer fewer services. Use resources such as the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (http://www.finra.org/) and Morningstar (http://www.morningstar.com/) to evaluate brokerage firms and investment funds. ETRs, mutual funds, and investment trusts are, generally speaking, diversified investment options. They're funds that hold shares of a broad range of companies, which spreads out risk. If you purchase an American Depositary Receipt, or ADR, you're only purchasing stock in a single company, so your gains are all dependent on that company's success. A diversified investment vehicle lowers risk, but purchasing ADRs could be a single component of a larger diversified portfolio. You just don't want to put all of your eggs in one basket. Typically, having a financial manager handpick which companies to invest in, which is the case with mutual funds and investment trusts, further lowers your risk. Investing in foreign stock can result in complex tax liabilities. In many cases, ETFs are your most tax-efficient option. Earnings are typically taxed as capital gains at a lower percentage than income tax. Your broker or accountant can let you know if an investment could incur a high tax bill. For example, if you live in the UK, you need to invest in an ETF that has either reporting or distributor status. Around 75% of UK-issued ETFs bear one of these classifications. However, most US and Eurozone ETFs do not have reporting or distributor status. Earnings from these ETFs could be charged as regular income and taxed at rates up to 50%.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Have a partner bring you a series of unfamiliar objects. Arrange them in front of you and focus on each one in sequence. Get comfortable. Take an object in your hands.

Answer:
If you're just starting out, small metal objects work best. For more advanced practice, you might use unwashed clothing. Let your eye travel from one object to the next, staying conscious of the initial feelings or impressions you get from each. Take a few deep, cleansing breaths. Relax into a seated position and close your eyes. Turn it over and open your mind to the history it contains. If you see or hear anything, let your partner know. Repeat with all objects and check for verification later. Try to identify the gender, age, and race of the owner. Report your impressions with accuracy and ask your partner for verification. Don't fret if you don't get any impressions. Not every object will inspire a vision.
