How many times have you lost an extraordinary idea because you didn’t write it down? If you’re like me, this is a daily occurrence. It can be a real problem. I spend countless minutes sitting at my desk, in my car, or laying in bed perplexed that I cannot recall my earlier thoughts. Sometimes I eventually remember, but other times my ideas are simply lost within the vast network of synapses driving my mind.

Although I’ve tried to get in the habit of jotting my ideas down on paper, there are times when it’s impracticable. Driving is a prime example. It’s not safe to write and drive. In fact, some states have made it unlawful to “text” while driving. And I can’t say I disagree. Enough accidents happen without texting being involved.

So what’s my solution? This week’s Next Day Favorite – the Digital Voice Tracer 7670 Digital Notetaker. With a recording time of up to 16 hours and voice-to-text software, I’m kicking myself for not getting one of these sooner. The advantages of owning a voice notetaker are unlimited. Whether it’s preparing for a conference meeting on the way to work (yes, Dad, I now do this too), or creating a grocery list on my way home, this voice notetaker makes my life a little easier.
