At the beginning, I would suggest you write it down to a paper and set it up as a passphrase that you will use everyday, like you master passphrase for Full disk encryption, or your password manager, or Thunderbird for example.
+Then after one week or so, you should have memorized it, then you will burn the piece of paper.
