At age 35 everybody oughta just carry a notebook and a pen with them. Because every other way to remember thing either fails to be fast enough or entices you to do something else.
On the one hand, completely agree. On the other hand, this would only work for me if I kept one notebook for writing and one for doodling, because the instant I’m done writing, that page is filled with random little lines and swirls and drawings.

I’ve tried this several times and I always forget I’ve got a notebook and a pen.
Or I have the pen upside down in my pocket and it leaks and I get a blue bit on my leg.
Why take up valuable pocket/bag space with a notebook, when you already carry a phone with you everywhere?
I utilize the built-in Notes and To-Do apps on my phone daily; they’re very useful for remembering things. No clunky notepad needed.
There’s also Habitica if you want to make remembering things feel like you’re doing quests in a video game.
