What I did to help me when I can't remember how to do something

(Chapter 18 Problem solving & Making decisions and Chapter 26 MCI Tool Box in my book)

About two weeks ago I had trouble remembering how to add music to my music player. This is something that I decided to do in order to help me with it. These are the steps that I used.

Make a folder on the desktop on your computer and name it "How to". When you are frustrated because you can't remember how to do something and you know that you will probably need to do it again, make a word document. Sometimes I have to search online for how to do something. I just love to copy and paste because it means that I don't have to rely on my memory. On the word document, list the steps that you need to follow in order to complete the task. Name and save the document into the “How to” folder. The next time that you need to do a task and you are unsure about how to do it, you can check this folder to see if you have a document. This has helped me quite a lot. In my folder, I have documents titled "How do I add music to my music player.", "How to disable apps on my android phone" and "How to find my notes on my social media page.

I'm thinking of making a new folder called, "Where is that?" I could put a document that would include where I put some things in my apartment that I don't use each day.
