I've never had great memory. And as I age (41) it feels like it's getting worse, which is kind of expected. For example, I've just watch a World Cup football match. 20 minutes later, talking to someone about it, I could only remember the winning country (South Korea), and wasn't sure who the opponent was (Portugal or Uruguai). Uruguai was playing another match at the same time, so I forgot who played against who a little after both matches ended.
I do generally have an OK working memory, have a decent paying job, but frequent lapses like that one worry me.
Does anyone else have a similar struggle and is there anything you think I could do about it?
