In my mind all these productivity systems cook down to creating a list of tasks. The list can be between 4 and 10 items. You do one task at a time and when you are finished you can cross out the task. This is the extent of focus my brain is capable of. Creating giant backlogs and plans is just | /dev/null in my case.

A giant backlog of tasks can help with strategizing a long-lived project. But I classify them as planning material, and when doing, I just create a new list based on them.
