Constructing a Passcode:

Passcode's must be Cryptic. If you enjoy cryptic crosswords then you will have little trouble.
Passcode's and Access Codes usually emerge together but sometimes one or the other gives birth to its partner.

They can come from anything that you are looking at or can think of, at any time. Just look at something or think of something and say to yourself, "What does that remind me of?" If the answer is nothing then try something else, until you can answer your own question. It all comes down to your life's experiences, and the way that you think, the crazier the better.

When you have your answer to the above question think of what that answer reminds you of. It is worth while doing this a number of times, at least three times, if you run out of ideas you can always go back a few steps and you will find that you can easily do this because it is all based on how you! think. Nobody else thinks quite the way that you do.

When your answer makes you laugh you have the Passcode/Access Code perfect for you and you are unlikely to forget it.

Now construct a sentence, at least 45 characters long that will remind you of the Passcode that you just developed and the Access Code which should also be in your head matched with the Passcode. Never use the actual details of what you come up with as a result of this exercise. The Passcode is a Code and is designed to remind you and nobody else. If you are too specific, then others who might have shared your experience will have a head start on figuring out what the code is.

For instance:- If your deductions lead you to "The day I stubbed my toe". Do not use that as the Passcode. Construct a sentence that will bring that day to mind, I might reflect on the TV series "The love boat" and come up with "Captain Stubings rolled on the deck in pain". The Stub in Stubings is all you need as the reminder, you can even misspell Stubings to Stubbings if you like, but you will find that there is no need because you will never forget the link

This gives you a Passcode (secret question) of "Captain Stubings rolled on the deck in pain" and an Access Code ( answer to the secret question) of "The day I stubbed my toe".

Try to come up with Passcode/Access Code combinations that are at least three time removed from logic, that is why you laugh because the end result is so ridiculous that no one else could think of it far less figure it out by seeing the Passcode.
