• Identify a special place in your house for keeping important possessions such as keys and wallets. Always place the items there and always search for them there. Place a notepad next to the phone for writing down messages.

  Keep a reliable filing system for personal correspondence and other important documents such as insurance policies.
• Write down login names, passwords, account numbers, etc. in one place and store them safely.
• Some of us have incredibly messy desks with papers all over. If we need to find a particular piece of paper then we have to remember where it was stockpiled. Rather get organised and keep things properly filed to free up memory space for important stuff.
