Scientists have concluded that walking through doorways can zap your task memory.

And you thought all that pacing back and forth made you look smart. ;)

 You can combat this somewhat by visualizing yourself doing whatever it was you were going to do in the room you're going to do it in before you leave your current location. It helps to associate the place with the action.

I just walk backwards wherever doorways are found.  The only problem is that you really don't decrease the instances of forgetfulness all that much.  Cuz of the concussions.
