How many times have you kept your house/car/bike keys in one place and the next moment forgot where you kept them? I am sure it happens to most of us on a regular basis. Not only house keys, but simple everyday stuff like the mobile, torch or even spectacles!
Why do we tend to forget things? Well, it is because of lack of concentration during a conversation that our brain tends to stash things in its recycle bin rather than saving it in a folder J
Long time ago, I had this habit of misplacing my keys and sometimes coins (change to pay the bus fare) etc. and used to spend considerable time looking for them. I was advised by my mother to stash away such important stuff in a big container/box where I could find them easily whenever needed. Well, for a change, I decided to follow her advise and kept all my important stuff in a big box on my table.
I even told the same to a friend of mine who had a similar problem. He said he put away his mobile, watch, keys and also screws and nails too sometimes in that container! He told me that once when he could not find the keys, he just called up his mobile from his land line and found the container in the kitchen where he had been repairing a light the other day!!
Everyone tends to forget something or the other at some point in their busy lives. Like I keep forgetting simple everyday stuff, Most guys cannot remember important dates like their girlfriend’s birthday, their anniversaries etc. The best solution for this is, maybe, like that old joke goes, you have to forget it once J
