– It's much easier to have one password for all your accounts — this way, chances that it'll slip your mind are very slim. But it's also a sure way to lose all your accounts at once.
– Do you tend to write your passwords on Post-It notes and stick them to your monitor or hide under the keyboard? Then, sooner or later, someone else will also get hold of them.
– You should realize that if one of your accounts is breached, it's just a matter of time until other accounts protected by the same password will be broken into as well.
