Summary

If you have learnt the number system in method 1, you should be able to recall the objects easily.

You can recall them forwards or backwards. If someone calls out a number from one to ten, you should always be able to recall the object that corresponds to that number.

People who practice this and enter memory competitions can easily recall a thousand objects in a row using this method 1 major system.
