Here are some ways to help you to remember things. We can put these into practice one at a time and may be along the way, improve or delete some of these. When there are any improvement or feedback, do add a comment here if possible.
(1) Snatch the thought down. Sometimes there are just so many and so fast the thought comes and goes, there is not enough time to write it down somewhere that the next moment the thought is missed. When squeezing the brain to recall it, the idea just could not come back again. So when certain things need remember, jot it down quickly. On a notepad. On a 3M stick note. On the newspaper on the table. Even on the kids doodle pad. If there is a iPhone or mobile phone, there is a place to quickly note down that idea and send it to yourself by email, gmail or yahoo mail. You can also send it to your office mail so that it reminds you when you are clearing your email.
(2) Set an alarm. Having a mobile phone or watch with alarm system can be very useful. Setting reminders and alarms at certain times of the day could help save some hastle to remember things when needed. It is like using an appointment or calendar entry or like a secretary that reminds.
(3) Set someone up. Another way is to employ a secretary. Surely this is more expensive. Partner with another friend to team in reminding each other on things in life, like messaging each other on life goals or encouraging notes. Taking the time to also pray for each other would help reinforce the memory.
There are many ways to remember things and appointments. Explore them and discover new ones.
