How can people avoid losing things?

It is important to have consistent habits for keeping track of my belongs. I always keep essential items (keys, phone, wallet, glasses) in the same place at home, such as a tray, hook, or drawer. When I’m on the move, I keep small items together in a pouch or organizer inside my bag. Before leaving, I do a mental scan and check what I need (e.g., “Phone, wallet, keys”). I return items immediately to their usual place (e.g., keys go straight into my bag or pocket, not on a random table). I often look around, asking myself, “Where are my keys, wallet, phone, glasses?”
