I’m really good at finding things. I have a strong visual memory, so if I see it, I can generally remember where it is. I once had a colleague laugh when a family member called me at work to ask for help locating some important paperwork: “The last time I saw it, it was in a stack of papers next to your bed. Look maybe halfway down the pile.”
Great post! I have had lots of occasions where I've had to buy a replacement for the whatever-it-is I hadn't been able to find... and then I'd put that replacement thing in the best place my brain could think of to store it. And guess what? THAT place would always turn out to be where I would find the original whatever-it-is....
Curiously I've not ever reverse-engineered this, in that I've never gone through the process of working out in advance 'IF I had to buy a replacement whatever-it-is, WHERE would I then store it?'. I clearly have work to do!
