I have to put things that need to be attended to somewhere incredibly obvious or else I will forget to attend to it. Like if I have to do laundry but the washer is taken, I have to put the basket in the middle of my doorway so that I literally can’t ignore it. Otherwise I won’t remember until I’m going to sleep and see the pile of dirty clothes. Or if I want to put off dishes until later I have to set the dirty ones that accumulated on my desk on my staircase or else they just won’t get taken to the washer that day lol
Or like, if I have to do something extra at work that’s outside of my normal routine, I have to set an alarm/reminder or be hyper-conscious of it without breaking concentration or else I’ll just continue on with my normal routine.
To add to OP’s answer:
