Open Q - organisational systems
Thursday, 12 February 2026 03:49 pmQuestion to moots and flyby visitors alike: how do you organise your life?! What do you use to track the myriad of sisyphean tasks that composite the human existence: chores, life admin, hobbies, social commitments and big events, side projects, reading lists, expense tracking and budgeting, journalling, article archiving, correspondance..... .... ..or perhaps do you just let go and speedrun raw.
I'm thinking about resetting some systems because items have been slipping off my mind into the ether. I'm currently looking at some kind of app for reoccurring tasks (ticktick / things 3 / microsoft to-do) and consolidating calendars, but would love to know what has worked, or not worked, for this corner of the internet.
Current profile:- digital systems: android phone + pc + OS + iOS
- journalling, planning, expense tracking, general list-making: pen and paper (jibun techo + leuchtturm)
- budgeting: excel
- thoughts dump, flash to-dos, gym notes: google keep
- holiday planning: google maps and google sheets
- hobby tracking: todoist but ineffective
