Paper (especially ink-jet printed paper) doesn’t like water, so always make sure your desk isn’t wet before putting paper on it, always make sure your water bottle is properly closed before putting it back into your handbag, always make sure the pockets are empty when throwing clothes into the laundry bag, etc.
Always carry a pen, a USB memory stick, a pocket umbrella, a bottle opener, a condom (some of these examples may not apply to you) etc., as you may find yourself needing one without knowing beforehand.
Carry a micro-USB cable—then you can charge your phone from any computer, and use your phone as storage. A penknife will include a bottle opener, a corkscrew and other useful stuff—I’m glad mine has scissors. Carry more than one condom—having only one creates pressure to perform. Pen and paper are useful. I also carry tissues and painkillers.

Assuming this is for one-night stands… Carry only one and if your prospective partner(s) cannot match your contribution, forego the activity: they are probably not as careful about safe sex as you want them to be.
There are gendered (and for gay men, role-related) social norms about condoms that might complicate things, depending on where you live and what circles you move within. As well as practical reasons you might not want to keep condoms on you every hour of the day: they’re heat- and light-sensitive enough that any carried on-hand need to be switched out regularly.

I do not regularly carry any of the items on this list and have not felt the need to begin carrying them.
My default set of things to carry with me consists of three items: a wallet, a phone, and a set of keys.

I really wish this were good advice, but IME the correlation is not very strong.

I can’t work out whether you mean this as serious advice or as a joke. Are you a devotee of one-night-stands yourself?

Swiss Army Knife including a bottle opener and other things
Not that I ever used it, but it feels good to be a 0.1% Batman.
