    • It is difficult to succeed in any fundamental area of living without memorizing a verse on it.
    • Always memorize in one translation.
    • Always memorize word-for-word.
    • When saying, always say the verse reference, then the verse itself, then the reference again.
    • Memorize during "brainless" activities, like driving, standing in line, during commercials, ...
    • Regularly review verses previously memorized.
