Notion - great for creating a personal wiki, use this to plan out my day

Mac-centric

Omnifocus - like Things you want a TO DO app to store everything you need to get done sone you can stop worrying you will forget stuff. Although I use Omnifocus a LOT (everything feeds into it) I use Notion to plan my day (with links back to Omni)

Devonthink - store all your papers and find them easily.

Alfred - keyboard shortcuts, custom workflows, clipboard history...

Amazon Echo Clock - the best way I've found to set pomodoro timers (so I can see them, but they don't distract me)

Tools aside though, it's important to create habits. Omnifocus can be tricky to setup in a way that works for you. It takes time to be able to use tools effectively, so only by constantly using them and tweaking processes will you get a great result.
