GC07 answered Monday June 5 2006, 8:57 am: Maybe try and keep a list and tape it to your bedroom door or someplace where you'll know you'll see it. Whenever you put something somewhere. Write in on the list so that when you forget you can go back to the list and find out exactly where it is. Also, try saying "Okay..I'm putting my _____ here." Sometimes writing things out and saying things helps your mind to store information easier. Also, be REALLY REALLY organized and REALLY clean. It always helps if you are able to look around your room and RETRACE YOUR STEPS and find what you are looking for without digging through a whole bunch of stuff. I hope I helped and let me know how it goes! Good luck! - GC07 [ GC07's advice column | Ask GC07 A Question ]

Verbalize what you are doing, and it might help you to remember later on. Training yourself to put things back where they belong can be a help, and if something doesn't really have a place, make one. Tell yourself that this is where this particular object goes and get used to where you're putting it. Also, tidy up! Make sure you're not going to lose things in piles of random objects like I do! =P
