My brother has a pretty amazing memory for events when we were growing up, but he also wrote in a calendar every night, synopsizing the day's events. And he enjoyed reading those calendars regularly. Now, at almost 70 years old, he can still remember details of vacations we took when we were young, and I'm certain it's because of that journalling he did.

That's incredible, and a great way to do it!
