Sometimes when we forget something we tend to think critically at recalling the lost piece of information. What usually happens is it slips into the abyss of forgetfulness. What I have tried to do in the past that sort of helps is to let it go and use my "peripheral thinking" to get it back. Like I said it sort of helps. Its never a good thing to continue about your day with that awful feeling of "I know I'm forgetting something". That's when I have to just stop and think. Even then I am flying blind with trying to piece together a puzzle that I don't know what its supposed to look like. It can get really indirect fast. I hate also when you have a meaningful conversation with someone and you have a nice thought to share but when it is your time to speak you forget it and then end up improvising something completely different. Oh the frailties of a mortal mind can be taxing and burdensome. Now sticking to post its is a good alternative to a half working brain. The night before I plan the next day through notes on bright colored pieces of paper lying around for me to find like 50 first dates. I just don't trust myself even at my age.
