- We want to study as little as possible and practice recall as much as possible.
- We want our original memories to be as deep and multisensory as possible
- We want our recall practice to be challenging but not too hard
- Last, when we practice, we want to nearly forget those original experiences but not forget them completely.
- When we do forget, we want immediate feedback to put us back on track
