Key to....Good memory

Was reading some stuff when i chanced upon an article with the title: Key to Good Memory-Forget A Few Things.
Well, being the girl that is super forgetful, i decided to read about it.
It turns out that the more memory you have, the higher the tendency to forget newer stuff that are more relevant to your life now. It's like there is no more space for filtering. With too much memories, it's hard to filter properly.
We are constantly taking in alot of new information and the filtering is constant too, if not, we will be too overwhelmed.
A research showed that those with better memory have fewer neurons developed in the part of the brain which is involved in the forming of memory. In the past, it's believed that those with more neurons have better memory, but now, research proves differently. With fewer neurons, old and useless memories can be forgotten and new memory can be formed.

Interesting. So losing useless and old memory can aid in remembering relevant and important things now. =0)
