Hi,

Personally I can't live without a list :(! I even write my everyday routine (cook lunch, check mail box, Watch Grey's anatomy…..) . I have menu plan list, Shopping list, To do list (for my upcoming wedding)… Chores list.. Oh I have sooo many lists ! I have a notebook that I use everyday( I mean every hour) … Pictures and photos help me to remember too, I am so visual !!!

[…] Another fellow blogger created an interesting post today on Lists Are Your Friends - StacksAndStacks.comHere's a short outlineI can't remember anything any more, said one of my clients. None of us can, I told her. And it's true. And that's why lists are so helpful. Here are. […]

Nia, since you're a graphic designer, I'm not surprised you're visual!

It sounds like you've found a combination of tools - lists and pictures/photos - that works really well for you.

I keep my lists on the memo application on my smart phone. As things come to mind I just enter it right away because my phone is pretty much always within reach. I also have wishlists for myself, husband and children. Not necessarily big items, just things that i'm looking for if I come across any big sales or good deals. Keeps me from standing there thinking, "I know I need something… now what was it!"

Beck, it sounds like you've figured out a great system for yourself!

I use Gmail draughts for movie lists.

Gmail tasks (now I don't have to load RTM into every browser I use) for task things to do.

Google Docs for Packing Lists.

I do my grocerys online, and have a regular purchase list. For everything else, I just write / pick up a gmail draught in my mobile phone.

My system of sticky notes at work has morphed into something interesting. I keep a binder open on my desk at all times. I have several sections for the different aspects of my job - projects, blogging, site banners, information, etc. I keep my daily list of regular to-do's on the left of the open section and blank notepaper to the right. I used to make my to-do lists on this paper, but found it annoying to always have scribble marks on it from getting things done. So I started attaching small sticky notes to it in the order of importance. This way I can move items around and simply toss them when they are finished. Nice and neat.
