64 Uses of the Peg and Link Systems
care of at that moment, considering the time and place.
When you think you have attended to all your duties for
the day, go over the Link, and if there is one you've missed,
you'll know it immediately.
You can utilize the Peg system, of course, for the same
thing. Just associate washing the car with your peg word

television to cow (#7)
hardware to ivy (#8)
book to bee (#9)
watch to toes (#10)
eggs to tot (#11)

at the hardware store. You could even use the Peg for this
by making another set of associations. i.e. bulb to tie; ham-
mer to Noah, etc. They wouldn't conflict at all, but it is
easier to use the Link.
Now, again, when you're ready to start the day, think
of your peg for #1 (tie). This will remind you that you
have to get the car washed. When that's done, think of
your peg for #2 (Noah) and that will remind you to go
to the bank, etc. You don't have to do these in order,
either; simply keep going over the pegs, and if you've for-
gotten something, it'll stand out like an eagle in a canary
cage.
There you have it! No more excuses to the wife that you
forgot to wash the car, or that you forgot to buy the eggs.
As I mentioned before, we'll go further into methods for
