Write it Down

I keep a notebook in my purse that lists what I need to do and where I need to go and what I need to buy. I find it so easy to forget a couple of things, and it really relieves my stress just to write it down. Then I know it doesn't have to stay in my head.

I like to hand write things -- maybe because I'm a writer. You might want to keep it in your Blackberry. Or, if you're the auditory kind, you can record your list of things not to forget.

Find a system that works for you. Then use it religiously. It will cut your mental stress in half!
