Always having a capture tool within arm's reach, as you do, is critical. If it takes longer than half a minute to find something to jot something down, it probably won't get jotted down, at least on a regular basis. Good point about keeping a notebook close by.

I agree. Once I write something down, there's a sense of relief - I know that I don't need to try and remember it anymore. This is why I have a notebook everywhere, including next to my bed and in the car. “With a written list that captures everything that needs to be done, updated regularly throughout the day, the mind can let go of the virtual action list it keeps in short term memory.”
