Given my misplaced confidences, I could only have been a good cricket player by accident.

‘Remembering’ that’s something that I think about so…
‘Remembering’, that’s something that I think about so often. I guess, many of us do.
2 other terms similar to ‘remembering’ are ‘recalling’ and ‘revisiting’.
I prefer using the term ‘revisiting’ instead of ‘remembering’. Actually I find it painful to ‘re-member’. And more so, by means of preparing and viewing lists routinely. Remembering through routine lists is what I call as ‘tyranny of lists’. By no means I am saying that it is ineffective. Folks who manage with lists routinely do a tremendous job. But there are folks like me who can’t take that routine.
When I say ‘revisiting’, though that too involves some pain, the process becomes slightly more ponderous, slightly richer.
But then, the question is always the same: how does one ‘revisit’ without making lists? I start with thinking about ‘yesterday’. And then I move on to ‘the other day…’ I realize I don’t have to write at all on many occasions. But there are occasions when I feel compelled to write in detail. All in all, the good part is the process doesn’t become a routine (and stale), and yet the memory stays fresh and alert to accomplish whatever jobs I am on to.

So there’s a standard foot size. And anything deviating from the standard size must be accommodated by a size smaller or bigger, when buying shoes. That’s the trick. It sounds obvious right now, but it wasn’t for so long. Strange!
