I'd say this article accurately describes my organizing. I'll start a todo list in Evernote when I get too many tasks. I'll knock of the highest priorities and the rest get forgotten because they weren't "really" important. After a week or two I create another todo list when new "high priority" items come up.

If no one is asking for something to be done, it wasn't really that important in the first place. I have hundreds of todo lists that are unfinished and I'll never do them. But, if someone does ask me for that a year later it just goes on the new todo list.
