Dirty Little Secret
Trouble remembering to
bring things when you
leave your house or
office? Do this…

I keep a checklist on my exit door (which is
the door that leads into and out of my
garage) of all the items I have to bring with
me on the way out. I don’t leave until I am
sure I have every item.
This means I read what I need, make sure I
have it, and then check the next
item...carefully, one by one, and not in a
rush.
When I know I have something to bring
that’s not normally on the list, I leave a
sticky note on the door right next to the
checklist...like “Bring cupcakes to school.”
Dry cleaner tickets and such are always
kept in my wallet, so I don’t arrive at the dry
cleaner without them.
Library books are kept in a tote bag hung
on the exit door doorknob.
