Fucking hell. I lost 70$ and my IDs and even someone else’s ID. I was so busy with packing, travelling and planning that I lost my wallet somewhere along the way.
The one time, I dared to forget to keep constantly thinking about my wallet’s location, I lose it.
The worst part is I skipped a proper dinner today because I thought that I was being frugal and saving money.
Fuck. Fuck.
Lessons? I guess
- Wear tighter pants
- Don’t keep cash in the wallet
- Sleep and eat well
As somebody who still struggles with this immensely, the phrase I’ve heard that I’ve been trying to internalize recently is, “don’t put it down. Put it away”.
That said, horizontal surfaces are still my arch nemesis. All they do is attract clutter.
Edit: for my wallet, putting it away means putting it on my bedside table or in the left pocket of the pair of pants I will be wearing the next day. By sticking to those two places, I’ve definitely done a lot better about not losing it
