The trick that I've used also works for OCD: Say it to yourself. "The door is locked."
Works pretty well.
Am I remembering yesterdays door locking or today?
Speaking it out loud is a great way to remember many things.
"Keys, wallet, phone" as you get ready.
"Door's locked" as you leave.
"Oven's off"
Etc
...just you and me. can I take you to a restaurant that's got glass tables? you can watch yourself while you are eating.

MIRROR IN THE BATHROOM RECOMPENSE
I thought I was the only one doing this
You are never the only person doing it thinking anything*. I mean, how unlikely would that be
*Anything common. Sure your thoughts on the technical subject that is your work or hobby are unique
I also need to do this occasionally, even though I never leave without locking I still need to consciously remind myself of the fact
The door in my bedroom or bathrooom??
