You should always make a note about something you want to remember.

No matter when it is, where you are or what time of day it is. Something that isn’t urgent, or pressing – right now – may just fritter away into the ether-world.

• Shopping list for a fun dinner idea
• Christmas gifts for the whole family
• Idea for a short story, novel or even a clever blog
• Step by step directions from a friend – how to get somewhere using the little known short-cut
• How to add your e-mail to your phone/tablet, update a security patch, or change the time on your (not so) smart thermostat…

Just take the moment. Use your pen and pad, sticky note, virtual note, or text your own self. Make a note. Then, you will remember, even if you don’t need to look at the reminder you made for yourself.
