When was the last time you forgot to do something that was expected of you? 最近一次你遗忘了自己原本打算做的事是什么时候呢?
How did it make you feel? 这样的忘性带给你什么样的感觉呢?

Responsible people do what’s expected of them without being reminded. 对自己负责的人能自觉去做自己该做的事而不需要别人的提醒。
How do they accomplish this? 他们是如何做到这样的呢?
Do they have a great memory? 是因为他们记忆力很好吗?
Maybe, but they don’t rely on it. 也许他们的记忆力很好，但他们(能做到这样)并不依赖于自己的记忆力。
In today’s over-scheduled world, 在如今这个任务过载的时代，
counting on your memory to remember your responsibilities is never a good strategy. 指望你的记忆力来记住你该做的事并不是一个好决策。
When you make the decision to take pride in doing what is expected of you 当你下定决心做别人希望你做的事情并引以为豪，
and NEVER again need to be reminded of a responsibility, 而不再需要被提醒这是你的责任时，
you’ll experience a greater sense of satisfaction and success. 你将体会到更多的满足感与成就感。

You will experience less stress because your focus won’t be on trying to remember 你也不会觉得压力很大，因为你既不需要集中注意力尝试记住
nor will you find out at the last minute that you haven’t done something you were expected to do. 你要做的事也不需要在最后一分钟才想起来别人希望你做你却还没有做的事。
Your self-image will grow because you will be doing the things you know you should do without having to be reminded. 你的个人形象也将得到提升，因为你能自己去做那些你该做的事而不需要被提醒。

This pad of paper serves two purposes. 这本便签本有两个用途。

Second, it’s my “tool” for making notes. 其二，这是我做笔记的工具。
If I think of something I need to do, 如果我认为这是我需要做的事，
I write it down on my “to do” list. 那么我会在自己“要做的事”列表上写下。
If I have a phone conversation with someone and there is something I need to do, 如果我和别人有一个电话会议并且我需要做一些事，
I write it down on my “to do” list. 那么我会在“要做的事”列表上记录。
If I am in a meeting and I am assigned a responsibility, 如果我正在开会同时被指派了任务，
I write it down on my “to do” list. 那么我也会在“要做的事”一表中写下。
