Re: Making mistakes at work

Hey @esprit,

I have mental fog from different MI and it can be really difficult, especially at work.  I find I keep a lot of lists, post-its (analogue and digital) and set reminders on my calendar and phone to help keep me organised.  I also make a lot of notes at meetings.

 

The problem has been so bad this year that I have been telling colleagues that my memory is terrible and asking them to remind me of things too.  It is a bit embarrassing but I hate to seem like I am slacking off or not doing my job.  I make a bit of a joke about age and no one has said anything.

 

Hopefully you will come up with a system that works for you.
