Even if you think you have a wonderful memory you should still record key events and other useful information in writing. Over time our brains reorganise information and our memories change and get distorted, often just the act of trying to recall something important will change the way a memory is recorded in your brain.
I’m always astonished at how many people attend meetings and make notes on scraps of paper or throwaway notepads. Coming from a scientific background I was trained to keep detailed logs and journals and this discipline has stayed with me into business and individualized life.
