write it down.
Your memory isn't as good as you think you remember it being.
(Edit: You should write this down btw.)

Not necessary to remember where you wrote it. Don't even have to actually write it, just go thru the motions.
Just write whatever it is in the air with your finger, and visualize it. Helps with retention immensely.

I dunno, whenever I write something down I forget it as soon as I write it down and then if I don't leave the paper somewhere I'll 100% notice it then no way it's getting remembered. But if I take 15 seconds to put it in my mind I won't forget it.

You know this is so true. For example every time I read a paul thread I remember how disappointing his last one was.
