Today’s Challenge
These days, many of us rely too much on our phones’ memories instead of our own.
Back when I was a kid I had dozens of phone numbers memorized. Now, that number is about three.
Today’s task is very easy. Write down all important phone numbers and put them in your wallet.
What numbers should you write down?
- Family members’ homes
- Family members workplaces
- Family and friends’ cell phone numbers
- Your children’s schools and daycares
- Close friends
- Utility companies
- Neighbors
- Clergy
- Doctor’s office
My wallet is big enough to hold an index card, so that’s what I use for my numbers. It’s sturdier than a piece of paper. You might even consider laminating the list of phone numbers.
Did you get this done?
Maybe you’ve already done this. Are there phone numbers that I missed on the list above? Share them below.
Here’s where to check in on the forum.
