Have tried ALL the same ones. Probably even more.

Square Post-it notes. One for what needs to be done that week. Another for that day. Cross each item as I go. When every item is crossed off, crumple into bin. End of day, whatever item is left gets scribbled on fresh one for next day. End of week for the weekly one. That's it.

Stuck on desk, to laptop, or carried in pocket. Works great. It's all about reducing friction and clutter. If too much effort to keep track, gets easy to drift into bike-shedding territory.

Keep going back to new, shiny apps every once in a while. Always end up back on damn sticky notes.
