I always write down lists and notes when we are going on vacation so I don't forget everything, I start the list 2 weeks prior and write things down as I think of them. I also write lists if I need to bring a bunch of things somewhere so I make sure I have everything. Do your write your self notes to remember things or make lists?

I have to have a calendar and write things down straight away or I forget them.Every day I check you calendar to see what is going to happen the next day or to remind myself about whats going on.I also write myself notes and put them on my magnet board.I also go out with a list.Living six miles away from the local town and it is so expensive to travel by bus ,it is a long way back if something is forgotten.

i do alot at work just because i am only there 3 days a week plus i have my own business at home, (plus family and a house to look after) so i have a lot going on in my life. so why not write notes to yourself?

Sometimes I do, I don't write them down though I put them all on my computer as notes to myself and I go in and add new notes to myself or look at the ones that are there every morning to remind my self of what needs to be done. It is easy to forget things but checking my computer every morning really helps, and it is a habit now so I never miss.

I write self notes. I write shopping lists for myself just in case if I miss something I should have bought. I write down events of important dates and even my friends' names.

I make tons of lists, if I went on memory alone I would forget my own name! I recently found a list of things I wanted to do in 2009, I got about half accomplished. Not bad for never have glanced at it after I wrote it. I've been told that posting your list of accomplishments and goals helps you to do more with your day, gonna have to try that one out. There are other types of list makers as well, some people number a list from 1-whatever and then fill in the blanks. Others will number things as they list them. I number them first and then list them, that way I don't try to do everything in one day and burn myself out.

I always do. I like to do things organizely as much as possible, writing a list or making notes is a good way to be organize. Thus, it saves time and effort at my part.
