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
You're never the only person doing anything common. What profound wisdom.
The door in my bedroom or bathrooom??
I also need to do this occasionally, even though I never leave without locking I still need to consciously remind myself of the fact
