When I had a lot going on at work and at home I often lost sleep just trying to recall what I needed to be doing the next day, the next week, or even the next month.

In an attempt to relieve the stress I started following the advice given to me to write all my tasks down.

To begin with I would write notes on spare bits of paper that I had cut up into note pads but this soon got out of hand as papers would get lost and the lack of structure made them confusing to read after they were written. The stress was not going away.

A more methodical approach was required so I started to structure my to do lists into well planned documents.

By sticking a printed copy on my office wall I could add tasks as they came into my head. I always reviewed it at the end of the working day to add anything I had overlooked.

It's amazing how that piece of paper stuck to my office wall helped me to sleep at night.

And it was even more amazing that by writing down the tasks, I appeared to remember what I should be doing without even having to refer to the list. This article Writing and Remembering: Why We Remember What We Write seems to agree with this.
