Checklist
A checklist is an ordered set of points that helps you not to miss important steps in action.
Definition
A good checklist does not replace thinking, but it protects against memory errors, rushing and attention overload. It works best in repetitive processes where missing a step can reduce quality. It should be short, specific and updated regularly.

Practice and life
Create a checklist for one repeatable activity: preparing a publication, conversation, training or closing the day in the evening.
Common misunderstanding
It's a mistake to make a list so long that no one uses it. It is also a mistake to treat the checklist as bureaucracy instead of quality assurance.
