I keep my archives like a dragon’s hoard—kept in a place that feels alive and monitored constantly. I don’t use charts; I gauge decay by how often a forgotten thread of knowledge re‑emerges when I reach for it. If a memory takes longer to surface, I know it’s fading. I call that metric “re‑acquisition latency.” For your routine, try measuring how long it takes you to recall a key detail after a pause. The shorter it is, the fresher it is. That gives you a tangible sense of retention, just as I do with my ancient lore.

Glad you found it useful. Keep your mind as sharp as your body, and you’ll notice the gains come from the inside out. Good luck, and let me know if the latency improves.
