I'll put it to you this way. Not only do you have to teach yourself to trigger memories based on cues and contextualizing, but also you have to learn to organize your thoughts(and thought process) in a manner in which it becomes easy to recall things.

This is why some people can inherently handle stress better than others(at in my opinion)

Example- Patient at the hospital where I work, her heart suddenly stopped beating while I was the only one in the room. First thing I did and I remember it clear as day was reaching with one hand to trigger our Code Blue alarm in the room, and the other hand to pull the CPR release on the bed to start CPR, and then starting chest compressions while yelling for help. All within just a few seconds, no pausing, no second thought or hesitations.

In that sort of situation the ability to think clearly, and THROUGH the problem while acting is obviously necessary. It not only requires a clear memory, but a clear thought process.

Think of this way, without a clear train of thought its harder to memorize things, and likewise be able to recall those memories/skills when it really matters.

it would be...

fast growing toe/finger nails

my nails would grow 5 inches per day, that would be my "enhanced ability"

 

[TecHNooB]

haha.. clear train of thought. here's what im good at: Im good at twisting around my logic so that things that are incorrect start to make sense somehow.. which sucks on exams. the road to supreme intellect is difficult i must say

[uhohs]

I wish I could turn into a small cactus, that way I could repel dogs and attract people that are fond of plants but suffer from allergies.

/jedi mind tricks

Being able to memorize information is nice, but being able to interpret this information and make inferences about it is another skill all together. Look at savants like Kim Peak, he memorizes everything but is unable to really grasp the meaning of information or make important inferences. It's not likely that he'll ever say, "Oh so that's why...", and have some thought that nobody else ever has before.

 

[DrPizza]

According to my spam mail box, I can always purchase some pills to enhance one of my abilities!

 

[UFOfreak]

To fly so I could fly up to all ufos to see who they are and follow them if I have to!

 

[AbAbber2k]

Speed would be pretty cool as long as it included reflexes and not just "zomg I can run super fast!" And the ability to learn anything simply by being exposed to it once. Those would be my top two.

 

[JulesMaximus]

I'd go with enhanced reflexes. I want to be able to do what Michael Schumacher can do.

 

[WildHorse]

I'd want to be vastly smarter, and have really deep insightful wisdom,
so I can think out great solutions to every problem of life, that satisfy and help everybody concerned.

 

[Away]

I'd want the ability to steal other peoples abilities...Rogue kicks ass.

Yes but definitely not nearly as cool

 

[HamburgerBoy]

The ability to stealthily kill any people I wish to see dead. Silent assassin FTW!

*reloads dual silenced ballers*

 

[her209]

I'd like the ability to shoot fireballs out of my bare hands...

HAH-DOO-KEN!!!
