Below are the
five ways to remember your password:
DO NOT USE TOO LONG PASSWORD.
Yes, it is
true that using a long password will definitely increase or make it harder for
hackers to break in if they try to hack into your system or account; it is also
true that longer password can be forgotten easily.

Anything
between 8 – 12 characters in length of password should be enough for you.
DO NOT USE TOO MANY SPECIAL CHARACTERS IN YOUR PASSWORD.
Adding
special characters likes; # £ “ @ etc. makes your password very strong and also
makes it very easy for you to forget as well.
It is
advisable to only use 1 – 3 special characters on a particular password because
anything more than three is too much to remember.
