Hermann Ebbinghaus mapped the Forgetting Curve in 1885 — 70% of new information is gone within 24 hours. The fix isn’t more re-reading. This exercise runs you through retrieval practice on something you recently learned and builds a spaced repetition schedule to keep it.
IN 10 MINUTES YOU'LL BUILD:
✓A retrieval audit — what you actually retained vs. what’s already gone
✓Your 3–5 keeper items — the things worth locking in
✓A retrieval question for each item — how you’ll test yourself on review
✓Your spaced repetition schedule — exact dates to review before it fades
