For example, one second, this sub is required to perform a specific duty, or behaviour, which is immediately punishable if not carried out. The next day, He doesn't even remember this new rule himself, and it is never used again.

My question, I guess, is how do you help/solve a lazy-thinking Dom? Who creates new orders on a whim, then forgets about them, or does not require/reinforce them after being obeyed once or twice?
I am not sure there is a cure, as a true decated Dom does not forget a new rule and strives to enforce it every chance they get. It is truely part of the pleasure a dom gets in the enforcement that is why the new rule is made in the first place.

Sounds like to me the Dom in question is not really into being a Dom, but rather trying to play a role instead. Unless the Dom is old and forgetful about other thing also---then the Dom should seek medical attention as it could be serious.
