I create a list every morning. I'm switching tools from time to time, but the system is the same (currently using Bear on macOS, but trying Joplin for cross platform, before that I used TaskPaper which is really a great tool because of how simple it is).

Try to list all the things I need to do across all my tasks and areas of responsibility, and check them throughout the day. If I didn't get around to something I copy it the following day to the next list. Simple stuff.

Agree. I have tried all [0] the tools that populate the world of self-organisation, and what I can tell you is that in my experience, more important than the tool is to follow the 2-step procedure:

1) Write down the things to do and the ideas.

2) taking time to organise, prioritise and plan.

With special emphasis on step 2, it can be one hour before starting work and half an hour before finishing or another solution, but this activity is crucial.

[0] OK, maybe not all of them, but a lot of them.
