The most boring and menial stuff sinks to the bottom for the After 2:30 energy drain while everything else is assorted according to priority: Right when I get in, After my coffee break, After my other coffee break and After Lunch.

I honestly just use the "sticky note" program in microsoft. I keep a sticky on the right side of my computer desktop with my current due outs. For appointments, obviously Microsoft Outlook, but I find having a sticky note in my face all day keeps things in my mind. I literally take my hand written notes from any meeting and type them out onto the sticky so that it's right on my desktop.

I approach my work very much like project management would. I avoid any of the low hanging fruit as I can easily delegate that to someone. The more complex issues I drill down and break it apart using a WPS (work breakdown structure) Who's needed, what's needed and when is it needed with each task. Often times I additionally look at the cost of each task as I need to know the cost/benefit for me in order to pursue an action item. I also have three categories: boulders, stones, and pebbles. 70%, 20%, 10% respectively with my time. Biggest thing is to set deadlines as a perpetual task is an exercise in futility.

at home I just do what my wife tells me do.

I use Asana.com - it is a similar tool and I have pushed it to my team so I can manage projects through it along with my personal tasks. It is free - decent and works well on my iphone as well.
