People don't have to learn them by heart if they cannot but it is rather a reminder to remember ALLAAH and be ALLAAH-consious at all times and in all different situations 24/7.
Another thing to have in mind for example is, "wa-inn min shay' ella yussabih bihamdihee". For example if one forgets ALLAAH one's own clothes that one is wearing all the time on himself remember ALLAAH and mention Him (SWT) so it is shame on us human beings to be less in remeberance of ALLAAH than the clothes we are wearing!! Remembrance of ALLAAH (AWJ) is not only verbal but also in all our actions.
Now the question becomes how to achieve it both verbally and in our actions all the time. The key lies in Andera Ghandy saying what means, "Watch your thoughts as they turn into words, and watch your words as they turn into deeds, and watch your deeds as they turn into habits, and watch your habits as they turn into manners, and watch your manners as they turn to become your life". Accordingly it all starts with the thoughts and ideas. Once we direct all out thoughts and thinking to ALLAAH (SWT) and focus on that step by step and with time all our utterances and actions and hence our lives will be spent in the rememberance and for the sake of ALLAAH.
May ALLAAH accept from us all and make us amongst those who live continuously in His ma"iyyah.
