The brain sucks at keeping a todo list. GTD means committing it to paper. When memorized list items start to dissipate, stress and insecurity increases. You remember that you had to do something, but you forgot what that something was. You can't trust the brain to keep a simple todo list, yet the OP tells us to do just that. Though if you do want to train your brain to memorize objects, I'd try to master the Memory Palace technique. The lazy could even visualize writing down todo items on a simple piece of paper.
