Do you always get lost in schools, malls, hospitals, and many other big buildings? For people with no sense of direction, getting lost is a normal scenario regardless if they are in a new place or their city. If this is your problem and you think it hinders you to do a lot of things such as traveling alone. Here are some tips to acquire the skills you need to have a good sense of direction.

1. How to Find Your Sense Of Direction

2. Use A Mental Map
One effective technique to deal with this
problem is to create a mental map of the
place. Study the actual map first so that you
can form it inside your mind. As soon as you
have created a sort of mental map, test
yourself after. Walk or drive around the city
without your map. It may be vague and
difficult at first, but it is like conditioning your
mind to remember places more correctly and
easily.

3. Stop Relying On The Map
At the start, you need to study a map and
look at it many times so you can fill in your
mental map. But, after awhile, you need to
stop using the map and stroll around without
it.
The goal here is to form a clear mental map.
It would be futile if you always depend on
your map to help you not to lose your way.

4. Do Not Depend On Another Person Or The Driver
If you do not pay attention to your
surroundings because you let your
companion do it for you, then you should
stop this habit now. Remember, you want to
fix your terrible sense of direction. You will
not be able to address this problem if you
always follow someone or allow the driver to
get you to your destination.
Yes, you will get lost, and there are a lot of
mistakes along the way. But, you need to
figure out the land yourself. After all, you can
always rely on your mental map.

5. Take Note Of The Major Streets And Landmarks
Use a point of reference as you walk around.
Take note of the major streets and remember
the landmarks of those areas. For example,
the tallest building, the most popular
restaurant, or park. It helps you have a point
of reference. You can use several landmarks,
so you know where you are.

6. If you own a car, all the more reason to address your poor sense of direction. Get the right auto insurance.
