I used to count on my memory for everything, and I was known (at work anyway) for having a prodigious memory for where things were kept and anyone’s telephone number (I worked at a bank, 17 branches, 43 offices, in logistics). Now, with my GTD practice growing and proceeding, I find that I can’t remember too much at all. But I know where to find the reference matierial.
Conversely, I feel like I know more than I used to, because I don’t have to work at remembering to get the whatsit at the store later.
Hits the nail on the head

I have a list and I am getting things done.
