Ever find yourself in a grocery store, mentally high-fiving yourself for a well-prepared shopping list, only to realize it's chilling at home enjoying some quality alone time? We've all been there. But fear not forgetful friends, I come bearing solutions!
First rule of the Forget-Me-Not Club is to write it down. The pen is much more reliable than trying to remember not to forget.
For the tech-savvy among us, let your phone do the heavy-lifting. Set a reminder to grab that cake five minutes before you need to leave the house. Pro tip: Don't press snooze! Act immediately or your cake will still be waiting at the end of the night when you get back home.
Not a fan of electronic nags? Send yourself an email or a text. Your inbox then acts as a nagging but well-meaning personal assistant, ensuring you never miss a birthday. And it is so satisfying when you get to delete the mails that have been taken care of.
And for the old-school cool crew, there's always the trusty sticky note. Stick it somewhere strategic, like on the fridge or the bathroom mirror. Just make sure it's in a spot that annoys you enough to get the job done. After all, annoyance can be a pretty powerful motivator.
