  • Keep a Checklist on Your Computer

  • - Several days before leaving, make up a checklist of everything you need to take. Start with morning things (medications, shower necessities, etc.) and mentally go through and write down everything you will need for a day. Don't forget things like a clock, camera, laundry soap, etc. You can keep this list on your computer and pull it up whenever you need it.

  • Keep Your Sports Equipment and Wardrobe Packed

  • - If you take trips that require any special wardrobe or equipment, keep it all in a duffle bag so that when the time comes, it is already packed and ready to go. For example, I have a ski bag that includes ski sweaters, hat & gloves, ski socks, thermals, goggles, etc. It saves a lot of mornings of buying equipment at the mountain at inflated prices.

  • Know Where the Airport Terminals are Located

  • - When going by plane, always find out the number of the terminal that you will be flying out of. Large airports such as LAX have many terminals, and the larger airlines are in more than one terminal. In some cases, like Dallas, those terminals are a half-mile apart. Got your running shoes on?

  • Know Where Your Hotel is Located

  • - When making reservations, be sure to ask if the hotel is located near a hospital, fire department, police station, or ambulance dispatch. Although these services are great in an emergency, they are less than desirable when sirens scream near your room in the middle of the night.

  • Know Your Measurements

  • - If planning to buy clothing whilst on holiday, take a list of the garment measurements which you know will fit each person. This is especially helpful for children, since ages can correspond to totally different sizes depending on country. Then carry a tape measure with you wherever you go.
