The voice-recorder suggestion is probably the ideal, but if you're generally in an environment where you can't use that, you might try a note-taking app on your smartphone, if you have one. Evernote's free version is good, and it's the first one that comes to mind, but there are plenty of alternatives, and if you don't want the bother of finding something, most phones have a "memos" app or similar built in. Lots of people find typing on a smartphone clumsy, especially for anything longer than a text message, but I've found that my writing speed improved dramatically with time. You might also want to look at any custom software keyboards available for your phone, since those help as well. Most note-taking apps have the added benefit of keeping a backup of your notes, in case you lose them, and many also allow you to access them from your computer as well, which can be helpful if you use your computer to write. Many also allow voice recording as well; sort of a best of both worlds.
