Record Your Story
Kickstart Your Memory Machine
Ever thought about journaling your epic life story?
Picture this: Turning your life's blooper reel and highlight moments into an eternal family treasure chest!
It all starts with one memory at a time, but let’s break down how this journey from brain to book actually happens.
Step 1: Store & Access
First up, figure out where your stash is
Your collection of texts, images, voice memos, and possibly embarrassing home videos. Choose a method that won’t leave your future self or tech-savvy grandkids puzzled about how to access these gems. Ensure you can print a hard copy of the text and images too!
Step 2: Sharing (Or Not!)
Think about who gets the VIP pass to your life’s backstage
The decision on what goes in the journal might hinge on who's reading it - whether it's immediate family now or distant relatives centuries later. Maybe save those stories about wild teenage escapades for a time when they can be appreciated, not scandalised.
Step 3: Create a Timeline & Summary Memories
Map out your life in five major chapters:
For each chapter, jot down a summary memory, where & whom you were living with and a little about the era: Were bellbottoms in fashion? Were Wham in the charts?
These will be the foundation of your book of life, narrating your story across time!
Step 4: Key Memories
Pinpoint 20 milestone memories
Those make-or-break moments or just plain weird experiences that define you. Each memory gets a title, but keep it simple; ‘The Great Jello Incident’ will suffice. Not all memories are sunshine - some are the thunderstorms that shaped you.
Step 5: Capture the Chaos
Time to dig out your relics
Got relics from the past like old photos, cringy love letters, or VHS tapes? Time to dig them out:
- Scribble, type, or babble into a voice app.
- Use speech-to-text if you’re not the fastest typist.
- Digitally enhance those faded Polaroids to bring them back to HD life.
- Upgrade those old home movies from grainy to grand with some digital magic.
