Tip 7 What kind of information do you need in a hurry?
We spend half our lives on the phone. We spend an equally big chunk of time looking for phone numbers and names. The directory is cumbersome. Putting them on your outlook means you have to re-boot your computer.
Heres a neat trick: tear out sheets from your notepad and label each as kitchen, bedroom and living room.
Kitchen sheet: jot down the following telephone numbers:
supermarket
butchers
pastry shop
utensil stores
take out pizza and other delivery shops
drug store
Oriental grocery
Bedroom sheet:
dry cleaners
doctors and dentists
walk-in clinic
shoe repair shop
alteration shop
department store
Catalog order stores, etc.
Living room sheet:
professional house cleaners
plant shop
local home centre
florist
bookstore
eyeglasses
airport
Or if you prefer to use your cell phone, use its memory feature.
